Jumping The S Curve: How Great Companies Get On Top And Stay There 英文原版

Recently, bestselling management books have focused on providing
a recipe for greatness. Others have sought to unlock the secrets of
long-term success. But a detailed analysis at the intersection of
the two, one that explains how some companies manage to achieve
repeated peaks of business performance, has been missing—until
now.
Accenture’s Paul Nunes and Tim Breene have found that what matters
is not just what you do to reach the top of one successful
business—climbing your current S-curve. Equally important are the
moves you must make on the way to your next business—making the
jump to your future S-curve.
Jumping the S-Curve reveals crucial insights for making such
transitions, including:
–Why traditional strategic planning won’t allow you to find the
“big-enough” market insights that are critical to superior
performance
–Why your top team must be refreshed before performance starts to
wane
–Why you need much more talent than you think, especially “serious
talent” that will find you worthy of their time
Filled with original practical advice, Jumping the S-Curve
demystifies how companies can thrive with one successful business
after another, through both good times and bad.
