Along the way, it identifies the secrets of their long-term success and reveals exactly how they can put your organization in a better position to excel when properly executed.* Contains many stories of achieving excellence, and addresses the obstacles that top-ranking organizations face in sustaining it * Includes insights on leaders in their particular field from McKinsey & Company in consulting and Cravath, Swaine & Moore in law to the Mayo Clinic in healthcare * Written by one of the most experienced and respected business consultants/advisors of our time What It Takes skillfully shows you how innovation and a commitment to excellence can drive success, while also revealing how easy it is to fall behind. With it, you'll discover what separates the great firms from the good ones and learn how to attain, and maintain, organizational success throughout the years. |
