Great by Choice : hur några företag blomstrar trots osäkerhet, kaos och (o)tu
Inbunden, Svenska, 2011
255 kr
Tio år efter att han skrev Good to Great ställer Jim Collins frågan: "Varför blomstrar några bolag under förhållanden präglade av osäkerhet, ja till och med kaos, när andra inte gör det?" I Great by Choice, lägger Collins och hans kollega Morten T. Hansen fast principerna för att bygga verkligt enastående bolag i tider som är oförutsägbara, tumultartade och snabbrörliga. Den nya boken skiljer sig från Collins tidigare genom sitt fokus på de slags instabila miljöer som dagens ledare står inför. De företag som valts ut för studien har minst 10 gånger bättre resultat än jämförelseföretagen trots svåra tider. Därför kallas de 10-gångersföretag i boken. Och deras framgång har inget med tur att göra. Det handlar snarare om disciplin och därmed gedigna förberedelser och att hålla sig till uppgjorda planer. Som Collins berättar i sin bok nådde Amundsen Sydpolen mer än en månad före Scott mycket tack vare sina omsorgsfulla förberedelser där han försökte förutse allt som kunde gå snett. Amundsen lärde sig t.ex. att hundar var de bästa dragarna de svettas som bekant inte och har därför bättre förutsättningar att klara extrem kyla. Scotts hästar blev fuktiga av ansträngningarna och frös så småningom ihjäl, och hans manskap fick då dra slädarna. Amundsen höll sig till sin plan att vandra c:a 30 km om dagen och därefter slå läger för att vila. Däremot drev Scott på extra mycket de dagar när solen sken och det var vindstilla, med följd att hans manskap blev uttröttat och inte orkade ge sig ut de dagar det blåste intensivt. Amundsen kom tillbaka till basen precis på dagen medan Scott och hans manskap dukade under för svält och kyla bara ett kort stycke från ett av sina stora förråd. Parallellen med företag och företagsledare är uppenbar. De disciplinerade klarar sig utmärkt det är ju en tes som också upprätthölls av Jim Collins i Good to Great. Jim Collins: Professor Jim Collins är författare till sex böcker, bland dem Good to Great, Built to Last och How the Mighty Fall, som har sålt i mer än 10 miljoner exemplar tre riktiga rekordsäljare. Jim började sin forsknings- och undervisningsbana på Stanford Graduate School of Business, där han fick priset som den bäste läraren 1992. Han driver nu ett management laboratorium i Boulder, Colorado. Morten T Hansen: Morten T. Hansen är professor i Management vid University of California, Berkeley (School of Information), och vid INSEAD. Morten har skrivit boken Collaboration, var tidigare professor vid Harvard Business School, och är PhD från Stanford Graduate School of Business, där han var en Fulbright stipendiat. Professor Hansen stammar från Norge.

THE NEW QUESTIONTen years after the worldwide bestseller Good to Great, Jim Collins returns with another groundbreaking work, this time to ask: Why do some companies thrive in uncertainty, even chaos, and others do not? Based on nine years of research, buttressed by rigorous analysis and infused with engaging stories, Collins and his colleague, Morten Hansen, enumerate the principles for building a truly great enterprise in unpredictable, tumultuous, and fast-moving times.THE NEW STUDY Great by Choice distinguishes itself from Collins's prior work by its focus not just on performance, but also on the type of unstable environments faced by leaders today. With a team of more than twenty researchers, Collins and Hansen studied companies that rose to greatness - beating their industry indexes by a minimum of ten times over fifteen years - in environments characterized by big forces and rapid shifts that leaders could not predict or control. The research team then contrasted these "10X companies" to a carefully selected set of comparison companies that failed to achieve greatness in similarly extreme environments.THE NEW FINDINGSThe study results were full of provocative surprises. Such as: * The best leaders were not more risk taking, more visionary, and more creative than the comparisons; they were more disciplined, more empirical, and more paranoid.* Innovation by itself turns out not to be the trump card in a chaotic and uncertain world; more important is the ability to scale innovation, to blend creativity with discipline.* Following the belief that leading in a "fast world" always requires "fast decisions" and "fast action" is a good way to get killed.* The great companies changed less in reaction to a radically changing world than the comparison companies.The authors challenge conventional wisdom with thought-provoking, sticky, and supremely practical concepts. They include 10Xers; the 20 Mile March; Fire Bullets then Cannonballs; Leading above the Death Line; Zoom Out, Then Zoom In; and the SMaC Recipe. Finally, in the last chapter, Collins and Hansen present their most provocative and original analysis: defining, quantifying, and studying the role of luck. The great companies and the leaders who built them were not luckier than the comparisons, but they did get a higher Return on Luck. This book is classic Collins: contrarian, data driven, and uplifting. He and Hansen show convincingly that, even in a chaotic and uncertain world, greatness happens by choice, not by chance.
