Organizational decline and turnaround management have emerged as important business management issues addressed and discussed all over the world. The companies often hit the pits of performance and growth and need to devise strategies that would effectively bail them out of that situation. In their attempt to emerge from a precarious situation, companies have adopted several measures.

The debacle that many companies have faced in their business proposition and procedure has often led to a growth trap and unprecedented loss for them; it is, then, that the management of such companies has embarked on sharp strategies for making a come back and turning around to retrace the growth path. It may happen that, in order to get excessive growth, organizations adopt a series of unrelated diversifications which, in turn, dilute their core business. They unknowingly fall back on business strategies that backfire and create financial and organizational distress. The book takes account of such a situation in some companies and how they have risen from the debris to get back on the racing track of sound financial health and growth. The case studies in this book also take stock of the pros and cons of the strategies that were embraced as turnaround measures by the companies, they showcase the sustainability of such strategies and their all round effectiveness. Thus the book stands out as good reading for future managers and strategists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An expert in business turnaround shares his inspiring approach to problem-solving: “A fascinating read” (Mitt Romney). Visionary leader Greg Brenneman believes that true business success and personal fulfillment are two sides of the same coin. The techniques that will grow your business will also help you achieve a rich, purposeful, and integrated life. Here, Brenneman takes what he’s learned from turning around or tuning up many businesses—including Continental Airlines and Burger King—and distills it into a simple, clear, five-step roadmap that anyone can follow. He teaches you how to: *prepare a succinct Go Forward plan *build a fortress balance sheet *grow your sales and profits *choose all-star servant leaders *empower your team For more than thirty years, Brenneman has seen these steps foster dramatic results in a variety of business environments. But he also came to realize that he could apply these same principles to improve his life and build a lasting moral legacy. He found he could make better decisions by carefully taking the most important facets of his life—faith, family, friendship, fitness, and finance—into consideration. Brenneman’s inspiring examples, from both his business and his life, demonstrate the astounding effects these steps can have when you apply them—right away and all at once.
