This book is fundamental. The principles laid out here, with compelling data, are a great way around the social pitfalls in strategy development.
Frans Van Houten, CEO, Royal Philips N.V.
The authors have discovered that over a 10-year period, just 1 in 12 companies manage to jump from the middle tier of corporate performancewhere 60% of companies reside, making very little economic profitto the top quintile where 90% of global economic profit is made. This movement does not happen by magicit depends on your companys current position, the trends it faces, and the big moves you make to give it the strongest chance of vaulting over the competition.
This is not another strategy framework. Rather, Strategy Beyond the Hockey Stick shows, through empirical analysis and the experiences of dozens of companies that have successfully made multiple big moves, that to dramatically improve performance, you have to overcome incrementalism and corporate inertia.
A different kind of bookI couldnt put it down. Inspiring new insights on the facts of what it takes to move a companys performance, combined with practical advice on how to deal with real-life dynamics in management teams.
Jane Fraser, CEO, Citigroup Latin America
