Why you should read Competitive Value Management
|
| In his book, Hermann J. Stern identifies the weaknesses of traditional market analysis, and financial and strategic planning. He drafts a convincing alternative to budget-based management. His analysis and planning processes are largely well-known but the author subordinates them to one goal: increasing the value of the company. Alongside his explanations, he throws in guest contributions and interviews with renowned finance experts to add insight into the practice of value-based management. He includes case studies in every single chapter to provide – much needed – illustration of the theories and models. getAbstract finds this demanding yet information-laden book extremely useful for CEOs and directors, and especially for decision makers in the finance and strategy sectors. Why? Simply because it can help you increase the value of your company considerably. |
