How Great Organizations Build Ultimate Competitive Advantage

The secret of achieving and sustaining organizational excellence revealed

In an ever-changing world where only a third of excellent organizations stay that way over the long term, and where even fewer are able to implement successful change programs, leaders are in need of big ideas and new tools to thrive. In Beyond Performance, McKinsey & Company's Scott Keller and Colin Price give you everything you need to build an organization that can execute in the short run and has the vitality to prosper over the long term.

Drawing on the most exhaustive research effort of its kind on organizational effectiveness and change management, Keller and Price put hard science behind their big idea: that the health of an organization is equally as important as its performance. In the book's foreword, management guru Gary Hamel refers to this notion as "a new manifesto for thinking about organizations."

 * The authors illustrate why copying management best practices from other companies is more dangerous than helpful
 * Clearly explains how to determine the mutually reinforcing combination of management practices that best fits your organization's context
 * Provides practical tools to achieve superior levels of performance and health through a staged change process: aspire, assess, architect, act, and advance. Among these are new techniques for dealing with those aspects of human behavior that are seemingly irrational (and therefore confound even the smartest leaders), yet entirely predictable

Ultimately, building a healthy organization is an intangible asset that competitors copy at their peril and that enables you to skillfully adapt to and shape your environment faster than others--giving you the ultimate competitive advantage.

Time-Tested Strategies to Beat the Market and Retire in Style

Retiring rich is much easier than you think! Bestselling author James O'Shaughnessy shows you the simple way to create the fully funded retirement you deserve. Most Americans today think they're in good financial shape and are looking forward to a comfortable retirement. But watch out! Even if you have a flourishing career and can afford two cars and several vacations a year, the numbers in your savings and retirement plan don't always add up to a wealthy--or financially secure--future. As investment wizard James O'Shaughnessy points out, in a time when all of us are painfully aware of shrinking Social Security and health care benefits, investing in your future is more important than ever. But with so much investment information readily available and hordes of money managers pitching their latest theories and methods, how do you know which investment strategies are winners and which are losers? Now, in this groundbreaking book, O'Shaughnessy applies his revolutionary analysis of the Standard & Poor's CompuStat Database to identify exactly which strategies have consistently beaten almost all active stock pickers over the past four decades--and are capable of transforming yearly $2,000 IRA contributions into more than $4 million over time. O'Shaughnessy's advice is simple: Don't buy stocks based on hunches, hot tips, or trendy advice from high-profile gurus who rely too much on gut instinct. Instead, look at the stock market's history and apply the proven formulas that won't leave you vulnerable. By adopting O'Shaughnessy's logical, consistent approach to investing, you can dramatically increase your net worth without falling prey to fears about current market conditionsand jeopardizing your financial future. Offering invaluable advice on everything from savings, to investing, to your 401(k), O'Shaughnessy tells you how to get the information you need and shows you how to develop a portfolio that's tailored to your age, financial situation, and long-term needs. His winning strategies are often so simple that they can fit on the back of a business card, making it easy for in-vestors at every level to see how these strategies will affect their overall financial picture and start putting them into practice. Packed with hard-core investment information and expert advice on common traps to watch out for, "How to Retire Rich shows how regular folks can learn the basics of investing and get on the road to a wealthy future. After decades of long hours and stress at work, don't you deserve to retire in style?

A Guide for Global Management (Fifth Edition)

The theme of this new edition of Cross-Cultural Business Behavior is CHANGE. First of all, cultures change. In markets around the world, business behavior is constantly evolving, impelled by generational shifts, improvements in education, and (especially) increasing exposure to the world marketplace. That is why all of the book's 43 'Negotiator Profiles' have been thoroughly updated, with new cases and fresh examples added. In addition to the change in culture, international managers' challenges have changed too. For example, just a few years ago, participants at global management seminars around the world were mainly interested in how to communicate and negotiate with overseas partners. But, they now find that their toughest challenges are how to manage overseas subsidiaries, strategic alliances, and international partnerships. To reflect these new realities, the book's time-tested framework for understanding cross-cultural negotiating behavior has been expanded to include a wide variety of practical pointers on managing in today's global marketplace. This fifth edition is important for everyone involved with global management, whether student or manager, because cultures and business challenges do change. The book is an essential survival guide for doing business in cultures other than one's own.
