Good to Great by Jim Collins

Good to Great

Why Some Companies Make the Leap and Others Don't
Jim Collins

The book presents the development and experience of the most successful companies, which demonstrated sustainable results over years: Abbott, Circuit City, Fannie Mae, Gillette, Kimberly-Clark, Kroger, Nucor, Philip Morris, Pitney Bowes, Walgreens, Wells Fargo. These 11 are companies, which made transition from good to great, and sustained these high results in the period not less than 15 years. Thus, $1, invested into these companiesРІ made in 1965, would have increased 471 times by the year 2000, while investment into the market would have grown only 56 times.

Jim Collins and his research team investigate factors and conditions needed for transition from good to great and its mechanism.
The authors are sure that the consistent implementation of the ideas and concepts they came to, will help practically any organization drastically improve its performance and achieve really great results.

The book was published simultaneously in 6 languages in 6 countries: Denmark, Norway, Russia, Finland, Sweden and the United States.
