Customer Reviews

Insightful!

Every so often, the language of consultants seeps into general use throughout the business world and beyond. This is certainly the case with the phrase "value driver," which in the late 1990s became ubiquitous in corporate conference rooms. But how many of us have actually given detailed thought to what value drivers actually are, how they should be identified and managed, and how they should fit within the confines of your overall corporate strategy? Luckily, Roger Morin and Sherry Jarrell have given this subject more than enough thought to rescue a concept in dire danger of slipping into cliché. Warning: This is not a breezy, skim-it-in-an-afternoon, how-to book. If you don't crunch numbers, this is not the book for you. However, we from getAbstract do recommend this book to anyone willing to grapple with its equations and graphs. They're not too painful, and even if the strategic concepts are not entirely innovative, they do add weight to some overused and poorly understood business jargon.

Excellent reference resource

A comprehensive study and approach for financial analysis of corporations, divisions, and discreet business units. A terrific reference for how to evaluate value creation within a firm. A must have for anyone interested in financial concepts and the study of true economic value creation.
