Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Critical Path to Corporate Renewal is a practical and effective agenda for revitalizing the corporation. Through an in depth analysis of six companies that have undergone fundamental changes, the authors describe what works and what doesn't in corporate renewal. Describes the many common errors companies make in getting started. The human sources of competitive advantage--coordination, commitment, and competence--cannot be enhanced through programs. Successful corporate renewal occurs only when plants, divisions, and departments involve employees. That must be done through a carefully designed series of steps--the critical path--led by unit general managers. Companies that have followed this strategy have flatter and less hierarchical organizations, employees who take initiative to reduce costs and improve quality, and enhanced teamwork at all levels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by thirty-five noted management and turnaround practitioners, consultants, and academics in South Africa, this book is based on the highly successful Wits Business School (WBS) program How to Manage a Turnaround and Corporate Renewal (MATCR). WBS was one of the first business schools in the world to introduce an executive education program in turnaround management. Many of the concepts and principles from the program can be applied to various non-business turnaround aspects of life. Therefore, the book is not only aimed at management practitioners, consultants, academics, and students, but also at staff experts, engineers, accountants, and lawyers in the private sector, municipality and trade union leaders, government, organizations linked to state structures, non-profit organizations, sporting clubs, and educational institutions. It provides meaningful insights into the various processes of turnaround management and corporate renewal, including stages of a turnaround, rapid appraisal and detailed analysis, recovery plan development and implementation. Industry leaders evaluate aspects such as strategy, legal, the new business rescue legislation, finance, human resources,marketing, operations, stakeholder management as well as external and political factors. Tools and techniques that can be used to deal with many different turnaround challenges are explained in considerable detail, complemented by case studies written by people who have led successful turnarounds in South Africa.

This approach gives structure to strategy while promoting lasting change. Examples from Strategy&’s hundreds of clients illustrate successful transformation on the ground, and illuminate how senior and middle managers are able to take ownership and even thrive during difficult periods of transition.

Book excerpt: How can acquisitions help improve a firm's competitive position and lead to value creation? * Why do many acquisitions fail to live up to expectations? * Why do many managers think that integration means "make the other firms like us," rather than build on the complementary elements that were the original justification for the acquisition? * How can a management team improve its success with acquisitions? * How and what can firms learn from their acquisition experience? These persistent questions are addressed in this important book by Philippe Haspeslagh and David Jemison. Though much has been written about hostile takeovers, megamergers, and corporate restructuring, little attention has been paid to strategic acquisitions that firms throughout the world are using to accelerate the renewal of their business. After eight years of research in 20 companies in the United States, Europe, and Japan, Haspeslagh and Jemison offer a welcome antidote to an overly financial view of acquisitions. Real value, they show, is created only after the agreement is signed -- through managerial actions, not financial engineering. Against their innovative theory of how acquisitions create value, the authors examine the reality of acquisition decision making in most firms. Ironically, they point out, less effective acquisition decision making does not stem from a lack of analysis, but from problems in the acquisition process itself. The importance of their message manage the acquisition process -- becomes more vivid when Haspeslagh and Jemison address integration, identifying common problems and challenges. In addition, they offer a powerful framework for managers to think through their integration approach.

Book excerpt: Ron J West (ronjwest.com) has been inspiring corporate transformation for more than 25 years, in in companies large and small. He wrote Corporate Caterpillars - How to Grow Wings to provide a kind of "blueprint" you can use to create your own individual and corporate transformation to move from limited to limitless. The book is not modeled on a single analogy like the transformation from caterpillar to butterfly, nor does it reduce the concept to a set of simple steps. But it does strive to recognize the richness of reasons why we often seem to be left with few choices. Everything shows up exactly when it is supposed to, just like this book! You are holding this book perhaps because you feel that either you or your company is stuck in some way. As an individual, maybe you have caught yourself repeating a pattern to sabotage your efforts to get to where you want to be. Perhaps you are a CEO, CFO, President, Vice President, Department Manager, or Project Leader. You are probably a business leader in a position to affect change in your organization; maybe your enterprise is a small family business or an international conglomerate. It matters not whether your company is a for-profit or a not-for profit, a public or a private enterprise, this book will show how to move from a world of limited options to a realm of limitless possibilities, transforming both you and your company.
