Eficacia Ejecutiva / Executive Effectiveness
Overview
Edición en colaboración con Harvard Business Review Eficacia ejecutiva de Peter F. Drucker es un volumen de la colección «Imprescindibles» de Conecta, que reúne las ideas esenciales para el profesional y la empresa de hoy por los autores de referencia. La historia nos resulta familiar: una empresa que era una superestrella hasta ayer se halla en apuros o sumida en una crisis aparentemente ingobernable. El origen de casi todas esas crisis no es que las cosas se estén haciendo mal. De hecho, en la mayoría de los casos se está haciendo lo correcto, pero sin resultados. ¿Qué explica esta aparente paradoja? Las suposiciones sobre las cuales se ha construido y se gestiona la organización ya no funcionan. Esas suposiciones son lo que Drucker denomina «teoría del negocio», y explican tanto los éxitos de las empresas que han dominado la economía como los desafíos a los que han hecho frente. Y ¿qué te convierte en un líder eficaz? El liderazgo no es cuestión de personalidad o de talento. Los mejores líderes hacen gala de actitudes y valores dispares. Pero todos tienen en común que hacen las cosas correctas de la manera adecuada aplicando sencillas reglas que proporcionan el conocimiento necesario para tomar decisiones inteligentes, convertir ese conocimiento en acciones eficaces y fomentar la responsabilidad en toda la organización. Los «Imprescindibles» de Conecta, en colaboración con Harvard Business Review, permiten acceder a las grandes ideas de los autores de referencia que inspiran a directivos y profesionales. Este volumen reúne los textos «Teoría del negocio» y «¿Qué te convierte en un líder eficaz?» de Peter F. Drucker (1909-2005), cuyas obras -como El ejecutivo eficaz o El management del futuro- y su pensamiento son referentes en la gestión empresarial. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Executive Effectiveness by Peter F. Drucker is a volume in the "Essentials" collection by Conecta, which compiles essential ideas by key authors for modern businesses and professionals. --Edition in collaboration with the Harvard Business Review-- The story sounds familiar: a business that was a superstar until yesterday finds itself in a tight spot or plunged into an apparently uncontrollable crisis. The origin of almost all of these crises is not that that things are being done badly. In fact, in the majority of cases, they are doing things right but to no avail. What can explain this apparent paradox? The assumptions on which the company was created and is currently managed no longer work. Those assumptions are what Drucker calls "business theory", and they explain both the successes of businesses that have dominated the market and the challenges they have faced. And what turns you into an effective leader? Leadership is not a question of personality or talent. The best leaders display different attitudes and values. But they all have in common that they do the right things in the right way, apply simple rules that provide the necessary knowledge to make intelligent decisions, turn that knowledge into effective actions, and promote responsibility in the whole organization. The "Essentials" by Conecta, in collaboration with the Harvard Business Review, give access to the great ideas of key authors to inspire managers and professionals. This volume contains "Business Theory" and "What Turns You into an Effective Leader?" by Peter F. Drucker (1909-2005), whose works--such as The Effective Executive and The Management of the Future--and thoughts are models in business management.Description
