Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - International turn-around gurus describe how to rescue a company from the brink of disasterWhy, even in the best of economic times, do so many apparently healthy companies fail The surprising answer offered by the authors of this breakthrough book is 'denial,' or more specifically, the inability of top management to acknowledge that they've been backing a losing strategy and to take the necessary, often traumatizing, steps required to set their companies on the right course.
