Sumario:"Few large companies manage to avoid stalls in revenue growth with pronounced effects. The average company loses 74 percent of its market capitalization in the decade surrounding a growth stall, and the CEO and senior team turn over more than half the time. Stall Points answers the fundamental question at the heart of these downturns: Why do apparently healthy, successful companies suffer from an unexpected leveling or decline in revenues and profits and why is it so hard to recover?
In this probing study of the growth experience of Fortune 100-sized firms across the past fifty years, authors Olson and van Bever find that great companies stop growing not because of market saturation, government regulation, or other external constraints but rather because of a finite set of common strategy mistakes that appear time after time, across industries, across geography, and across the economic cycle."--Jacket.
