Recommendation

How do great organizations sustain superior performance year after year? Performance experts Brian MacNeice and James Bowen spent five years traveling the globe to interview executives at the world’s top organizations. The authors explain the 12 “Powerhouse Principles” they identified as markers that distinguish excellent organizations and discuss how they apply the “four key pillars of high performance.” Their research codifies peak performance. getAbstract recommends this informative manual on how top companies sustain success to executives, entrepreneurs and business students who want to know how to maximize an organization’s performance.

Take-Aways

  • Leaders organize enduring high-performance institutions to be exceptional.
  • They develop “governance models” that deliver sustained superior performance.  
  • High performance is a collective – not a singular – achievement.
