Produktbeschreibung
Essential Management Models is a compilation of business tools that actually work. It's a guide to the very best in practical management thinking. No reinventing the wheel, no management fads and no corporate word-bingo.

Essential Management Models demystifies strategy tools and does so with attitude: the view that any decision is better than no decision. The book encourages you to "go on...decide" and provides you with reference on how to do so.

Rather than a series of independent summaries, the book makes connections between frameworks to expose the overlaps and relationships between them. This is the key to what makes the exercise worthwhile, the tools useful and the book unique.

Using diagrams extensively to explain key concepts, but without ever "dumbing down", the book is written for managers who get things done - or students who want to.

If you've ever studied management or strategy before, Essential Management Models will enable you to go back to the models and use them to do a better job, or think more clearly. It will remind you of the interlinkages between the frameworks to really make them work as a coherent whole. If you've forgotten them, it will give you confidence to use them. If you've written them off as mere theory, we urge you to think again.

Rezensionen
"Connecting the dots between the best management theories of the past 50 years, Essential Management Models calls on us to 'go on... decide' and reminds us where innovation fits within the broader business context."

Tony Ulwick, Founder and CEO of Strategyn

"Grant Foster and Chris Grannell have written a timely management compendium for the ages. Not only do they provide a highly readable presentation of multiple business models and frameworks, they constructively critique and enhance these models. It's a timely tome for the post-pandemic era, which should spend more time on readers' desks than on their bookshelves."

Jon Manning, Head of Pricing, MYOB

"This book captures and summarises the most useful strategy principles and tools into an easy to use reference journal for leaders at all levels. Even the most experienced executives and entrepreneurs should test their thoughts and views against the frameworks and tips embedded in this book. Essential reading if you want to win."

Michael Cameron, Former CEO and Managing Director, Suncorp and GPT

"Nothing new here. But that's a strength not a criticism. The authors have not invented another tiresome array of theories and models, they've curated, represented, connected and applied the great business school concepts in a way that all managers can appreciate and apply."

Mark Ritson, Founder, Mini MBA in Marketing
