Confronting reality :
Bossidy, Larry
Confronting reality : doing what matters to get things right / Larry Bossidy and Ram Charan - New York : Crown Business, 2004 - viii, 364p, 22cm.
The book shows how companies can succeed if they return to reality and examine every part of their business. It is based on a simple concept, but many companies approach strategy and execution in a surprisingly unreal manner and even the simplest of measurement methods, like the business model, are not applied correctly. Cisco, 3M, KLM, Home Depot, and the Thomson Corporation are a few of the companies that are examined. To demonstrate how to examine a business using the business model, it mapped out external variables, financial targets, internal activities, and an iteration stage to prove how a dynamically evolving business model will help improve performance.
