Too many companies manage their costs in the wrong way. Today’s market requires companies to view cost management through the lens of what truly sets them apart – and to ruthlessly prioritize investments in these areas. Yet, nearly 80% of executives admit that budgeting is not very well aligned with strategic planning, and less than 10% of companies are actually ready for growth.
Our new book, ‘Fit for Growth: A Guide to Strategic Cost Cutting, Restructuring, and Renewal’, reveals the hidden problems of conventional cost management and shows us how companies can do better.
Fit for Growth is a guide for senior executives and middle managers on how to align their company's costs and organization with their strategy so they can grow, create value, and sustainably outperform competitors. The book provides the strategies, specific examples, and hands-on advice to help determine whether individual costs are helping or hurting the business, and how to keep their spending aligned with the firm’s specific business strategy, allowing them to stay competitive under any market condition.
Fit for Growth walks readers step by step through the nine most important levers to restructure costs, complete with 30+ case studies and practical examples from leading companies around the world.
