      A playbook for long-term value creation addresses the ongoing challenge of balancing short-term and long-term goals, particularly as boards face new pressures. With $14 trillion in assets managed by firms like Vanguard and BlackRock, a significant portion is held in index funds, leading to a powerful class of permanent institutional investors. These passive investors now own nearly 60 percent of the Fortune 500 and are vocal about their expectations. Influential figures like Larry Fink emphasize that focusing solely on short-term profits is no longer acceptable. Three industry leaders, who have engaged directly with boards and management, urge a reevaluation of total shareholder return (TSR). They propose shifting focus to a new TSR—talent, strategy, and risk—arguing that these elements are crucial for long-term value creation. The authors provide a framework for boards to manage these factors effectively, including analyzing business from a shareholder activist's perspective, guiding management toward a long-term vision, monitoring the execution of strategic goals, prioritizing major risks, and enhancing board diversity. In light of evolving corporate ownership dynamics, this authoritative guide equips boards to lead with a long-term focus.

    • Důsledná realizace záměrů a cílů, dotahování úkolů, projektů a plánů do zdárného konce a schopnost dosahovat očekávaných výsledků, to jsou důležité znaky, jimiž se může vaši firma zásadně odlišit od konkurentů. Realizační činnosti - oblast, která není možná tolik "sexy" jako jiné aspekty podnikatelské praxe - jsou také tím nejdůležitějším úkolem vrcholových vedoucích pracovníků, tvrdí ve své společné knize legendární manažer Larry Bossidy (GE, AlliedSignal, Honeywell) a přední světový poradce v oboru podnikového managementu Ram Charan. Autoři dokládají, že realizační činnosti opravdu nejsou jen banálními detaily, které by mohli vrcholoví vedoucí pracovníci bezezbytku "delegovat" podřízeným. Naopak: Jejich osobní a systematická angažovanost v základních podnikových procesech (personální proces, strategický proces, provozní proces), o něž se úspěšné realizační činnosti opírají, je pro úspěch podniku absolutně nezbytná. Prakticky orientovaný text doplňuje a ilustruje velké množství příkladů z praxe špičkových světových podniků.

    • Together, these authors have more first-hand experience in leadership development and succession planning than you're likely to find anywhere else. And here, they show companies how to create a pipeline of talent that will continuously fill their leadership needs-needs they may not even yet realize. The Leadership Pipeline delivers a proven framework for priming future leaders by planning for their development, coaching them, and measuring the results of those efforts. Moreover, the book presents a combination leadership-development/succession-planning program that ensures a steady line-up of leaders for every critical position within the company. It's an approach that bolsters the retention of intellectual capital as it eliminates the need to go outside for expensive "stars," who will probably jump ship before they reach their full potential anyway.
