Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book has effectively presented a string of cases which have put the turnaround strategy adopted by global companies under a searchlight. Organizational decline and turnaround management have emerged as important business management issues addressed and discussed all over the world. The companies often hit the pits of performance and growth and need to devise strategies that would effectively bail them out of that situation. In their attempt to emerge from a precarious situation, companies have adopted several measures. The book optimally covers a few of such turnaround strategies namely- Change in existing corporate strategy, Retrenchment of assets and people, Upgrading technology, Financial restructuring and Organizational change, through some exemplary case studies. The debacle that many companies have faced in their business proposition and procedure has often led to a growth trap and unprecedented loss for them; it is, then, that the management of such companies has embarked on sharp strategies for making a come back and turning around to retrace the growth path. It may happen that, in order to get excessive growth, organizations adopt a series of unrelated diversifications which, in turn, dilute their core business. They unknowingly fall back on business strategies that backfire and create financial and organizational distress. The book takes account of such a situation in some companies and how they have risen from the debris to get back on the racing track of sound financial health and growth. The case studies in this book also take stock of the pros and cons of the strategies that were embraced as turnaround measures by the companies, they showcase the sustainability of such strategies and their all round effectiveness. Thus the book stands out as good reading for future managers and strategists.

Download or read book Responsible Restructuring written by Wayne F Cascio and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2002-09-09 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Firms that restructure through downsizing are not more profitable than those that don't, and often end up hurting themselves in the long run. Responsible Restructuring draws on the results of an eighteen-year study of S&P 500 firms to prove that it makes good business sense to restructure responsibly-to avoid downsizing and instead regard employees as assets to be developed rather than costs to be cut. Wayne Cascio explodes thirteen common myths about downsizing, detailing its negative impact on profitability, productivity, quality, and on the morale, commitment, and even health of survivors. He uses real-life examples to illustrate successful approaches to responsible restructuring used by companies such as Charles Schwab, Compaq, Cisco, Motorola, Reflexite, and Southwest Airlines. And he offers specific, step-by-step advice on what to do-and what not to do-when developing and implementing a restructuring strategy that, unlike layoffs, leaves the organization stronger and better able to face the challenges ahead.

Download or read book A Temporal Approach to Retrenchment and Successful Turnaround in Declining Firms written by Chanchai Tangpong and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study extends current understanding of the retrenchment-turnaround relationship in declining firms by introducing a temporal approach and arguing that the effectiveness of retrenchment as a strategy is contingent on its adoption early in turnaround attempts. Drawing from the two-stage turnaround model and insights from the literature on downward spirals in organizations, we develop and test a theoretical model that explains how temporal considerations in retrenchment influence the likelihood of successful turnaround. Using a matched pair sample of 96 US firms, we find that declining firms that implement retrenchment actions early have a higher likelihood of successful turnaround. The findings also indicate that while two specific retrenchment actions, early divestments and early geographic market exits, significantly contribute to the likelihood of successful turnaround, early layoffs do not. Overall, the findings shed some light on the importance of timing strategic actions in organizational turnarounds. Implications for research and practice are discussed.

Download or read book A '3rs' Strategy for Public Service Turnaround written by George Boyne and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Problems of public service 'failure' are high on the political agenda in the UK, and many national and local organizations are searching for effective turnaround strategies. Although little research on turnaround in the public sector has been undertaken, there is a substantial number of studies of decline and recovery in private firms. Evidence from these studies suggests that turnaround is more likely in companies that pursue retrenchment, repositioning and reorganization. The relevance of this '3Rs' strategy to the public sector is analysed, and the potential consequences for public service improvement are evaluated. This article will help managers to think more clearly about turnaround strategies that could work in their organizations.

Download or read book Turnaround Strategies in Response to the Asian Crisis written by Pascal Prinz and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of retrenchment is one of the most controversially debated issues of turnaround management for a Western environment and its impact is even more contentious and equivocal for an Asian setting. This thesis takes the Asian financial crisis as an important example of a severe, but temporary industry contraction to examine the role of retrenchment in response to such a crisis. Unlike earlier studies focusing on Chinese-owned businesses in South-East Asia, a geographic focus on Singapore is taken in this thesis. A triangulation of quantitative analyses of 134 companies listed on the Singaporean stock exchange is employed. The findings suggest that both asset and cost retrenching companies face lower overall performance levels throughout the crisis situation in Singapore than non retrenching firms which indicates that the degree of distress and urgency in the turnaround situation moderates the degree of asset and cost retrenchment. Moreover, differing effects on performance of asset and cost retrenchment were found. While the impact of asset retrenchment on performance in a crisis situation in Singapore is insignificant, the impact of cost retrenchment is positive, however, very limited.
