Description du livre
Just why is Amazon so popular and what’s really behind the me- teoric rise of platforms like Uber and Airbnb? Should businesses dispense with support functions and R&D departments? Can a company’s performance spark the same frenzy of excitement as Lionel Messi’s sporting prowess? These are just some of the questions at the heart of Herve´ Amar’s analysis of performance drivers.
A !rm believer that !nancial wizardry alone is no longer a stable foundation for long-term strategies, Herve´ Amar deconstructs the mechanisms that enable companies to safeguard their busi- ness models, accelerate innovation policy and anticipate market shifts. He argues that the time has come for more adept man- agement of two factors that businesses often underestimate: time and employee motivation.
Backed by his own experience, Herve´ Amar puts forward a unique, imaginative perspective on leadership by encouraging decision makers to rely on openness and common sense and to invest in the well-being of their teams. His philosophy, fuelled by a practical approach to the way that companies operate and an informed analysis of current issues, opens up an entirely new outlook on managing change and talent.
