Description: "According to Value Driven Management, companies that want to survive and prosper in today's globalized economy need to do more than single-mindedly pursue the transient economic value represented by increased quarterly profits, high stock prices, and shareholder wealth. Instead, they must create value that can be sustained over time."

"Value Driven Management explains how to do just that. Starting with the premise that what people value drives their actions, the book introduces eight "value drivers": external cultural values, internal cultural values, employee values, supplier values, customer values, third-party values, competitor values, and owner values. Only by integrating these value drivers into an organization's leadership, management, and decision-making processes can an organization achieve and maintain success."--Jacket.
