Description
<p> Based on a groundbreaking five-year study, analysing data on 200 management practices gathered over a 10-year period, "What Really Works" reveals the effectiveness of practices that really matter - the ones that, if followed rigorously, ensure sustained business success.<p> With hundreds of well-known management practices and prescriptions promoted by consultants and available to business, which are really effective and contribute to the growth and continued success of a company? Which do little or nothing?<p> Based on the 'Evergreen Project', a massive, five-year study involving the business school faculties of 10 universities, the authors set out to find the management practices that truly promote long-term growth and success. Their findings will revolutionise the art and practice of business management.<p> The book shows that there are essentially six management practices that all successful companies must master simultaneously. They range from focusing on a strategy of growth to maintaining the depth and quality of human talent in the organisation.<p>
