Good to Great
Why Some Companies Make the Leap... and Others Don't
What separates merely good companies from truly great ones.
Jim Collins and his research team studied companies that made a sustained leap from good to great results and compared them to peers that did not. They identify common factors including humble but driven Level 5 leaders, getting the right people on board first, and confronting brutal facts.
