Turning the Flywheel : A Monograph to Accompany Good to Great
(Author) Jim Collins__________________ *From the author of the multi-million-copy bestseller Good to Great* 'No matter what your walk of life, no matter how big or small your enterprise, no matter whether it's for-profit or nonprofit, no matter whether you're CEO or a unit leader, the question stands, How does your flywheel turn?' - JIM COLLINS __________________ The key to business success is not a single innovation or one plan. It is the act of turning the flywheel, slowly gaining momentum and eventually reaching a breakthrough. Building upon the flywheel concept introduced in his groundbreaking classic Good to Great, Jim Collins teaches readers how to create their own flywheel, how to accelerate the flywheel's momentum, and how to stay on the flywheel in shifting markets and during times of turbulence. Combining research from his Good to Great labs and case studies from organisations like Amazon, Vanguard, and the Cleveland Clinic which have turned their flywheels with outstanding results, Collins demonstrates that successful organisations can disrupt the world around them - and reach unprecedented success - by employing the flywheel concept.
