En savoir plus sur le livre
With two new chapters and a preface, this award-winning book continues to reveal the delusions prevalent in the corporate world, offering insights into the true drivers of business success and failure. Many contemporary management gurus make bold claims based on supposedly irrefutable research, promising to uncover the secrets behind a company's success or failure and how to emulate the former. However, these experts often obscure critical thinking about success with a mix of hype and popular business misconceptions, both statistical and otherwise. A key delusion is the Halo Effect, where the high financial performance of a successful company leads to an unwarranted positive perception of all its attributes—strategy, values, leadership, and execution. Conversely, when performance declines, these same attributes are criticized, suggesting a flawed strategy or complacent culture. This book not only identifies these misconceptions but also proposes a clearer approach to leadership by emphasizing strategic choices and execution while acknowledging their inherent risks. Witty and unconventional, it is essential for anyone seeking to distinguish fact from fiction in business.
