Larry Bossidy is one of the world?s most acclaimed CEOs, a man who has a track record for delivering results. Ram Charan is a legendary advisor to senior executives and boards of directors, a man with unparalleled insights into why some companies are successful and some are not. Together they?ve pooled their knowledge and experience into a book that shows how to close the gap between results promised and results delivered. After a long, stellar career with General Electric, Bossidy transformed AlliedSignal into one of the world?s most admired companies and was named CEO of the Year in 1998 by Chief Executive magazine. His accomplishments didn?t just happen; they resulted from the consistent practice of the discipline of execution: understanding how to link together people, strategy, and operations, the three core elements of every business. It all comes down to the real job of running a business, not just formulating a ?vision? and leaving the work of carrying it out to others. Bossidy and Charan show the importance of being deeply and passionately engaged in an organization and why robust dialogues about people, strategy, and operations result in a business based on intellectual honesty and realism.
