Book Review by Somewhere Over Contributor Joe Don Ross
In my opinion, this is one of the best business books every written. It applies proven data to identify companies that have gone from “good to great,” then describes in detail what these companies did to maintain greatness. Author Jim Collins also shares with readers the characteristics of the company leaders that worked to create company’s positive change. As you will learn in this book, there are some key principles that are consistently shared among the greatest business leaders and evidenced throughout the companies Collins identifies in “Good to Great.” If you’re looking to transition from good to great, or to lead your company toward positive change, this is a must read. In fact, if you’re like me, it will be one of the few books you turn to time and time again for advice and strong examples you can use as your own roadmap to greatness.
