Title: Almost as good as Execution
Product review: Since reading Execution by the same authors, I have called it "an MBA in a single book." That certainly overstates how effective a single piece of work can be, but Bossidy and Charan effectively capture in Execution the high point of management's responsibility: getting things done. This follow-up book is what Thoreau called the foundation required for the castles that one attempts to build in the sky. Confronting reality, (the act, not the book) is the primary ingredient in the "getting results" mix. Too few managers will read this book, and even fewer will act on it.
