Download Innovation Prowess: Leadership Strategies for Accelerating Growth (Wharton Executive Essentials) AudioBook Free
A framework for attaining superior rates of organic growth. Achieving superior growth through technology is a top strategic priority for any companies. Yet most management teams battle to reach their firm's ambitious growth targets and undergo slow growth. What distinguishes these growth laggards from growth leaders like IBM, Nike, LEGO, North american Express, Amazon, and Samsung that realize their full potential for growth? Wharton professor George S. Day shows that growth leaders use their technology prowess to accelerate their growth at a faster rate. In such a essential guide, Day shows developing this prowess by combining self-control in growth-seeking activities with an organizational ability to innovate. Day shows managers how to set a growth strategy that is realistic while still stretching the organization; seek out the best growth opportunities along the full spectral range of 14 growth pathways; aim their growth-seeking activities toward the creation of new customer value; figure out how to benefit from the uncertainty of technology by successfully assessing and made up of risk; build the organizational muscle to put into practice an ambitious growth strategy; and move faster from ideas to impact. Using the strategies, functions, and methods reviewed in Advancement Prowess, leaders can create a tested and detailed strategy for driving organic growth year after year.
