Book Description

In the most widely anticipated management book of the year, Jim Collins presents nothing less than a recipe book on how to make a good company great. Following the success of his international blockbuster BUILT TO LAST, where he and co-author Jerry Porras discovered the secrets of companies that were outstanding at their founding and then sustained greatness, Collins wondered what could be done for the company that is good or mediocre at best? He questioned whether there have been companies that started weak and finished strong, and if so, what can be said about these companies that might help managers turn a mediocre organization into a great one? So Collins and his research team undertook a massive five year study of every company that has made the Fortune 500 since the advent of that listing in 1965 - over 1400 companies in all. The result of that research was astounding - only 11 companies had successfully turned a mediocre enterprise into a true long term champion. These findings will be felt like an earthquake in America's boardrooms and business schools.
