| Sumario: | "Do better business, get better results The Stress Test Every Business Needs shows you how to optimize your business strategy to improve your results. Drawing from recent high-profile cases that illustrate the impact of common mistakes, this book brings the Stress Test methodology out of banking and applies it to businesses in any sector. If shareholder value is created through raising, investing, optimizing, and preserving capital, how can business leaders ensure stability and growth in an era of instability and stagnation? Stress Testing makes every business stronger; by taking a holistic view across your company's businesses, functions, and geographies, you become better equipped to make the tough decisions that draw the line between sinking, surviving, and thriving. Brexit is showing the world what happens when we insufficiently prepare for low probability/high impact events; Allergan proved that outperforming peers doesn't necessarily ward off activist shareholders; companies around the world prove every day that operating in multiple businesses doesn't always produce a synergistic effect. Missteps like these are preventable, predictable, and avoidable, and this book provides the framework to help you keep your company above the fray. Learn from recent management successes and failures Make your business stronger amidst heightened uncertainty and investor scrutiny Make smart trade-offs among competing investment opportunities Optimize resource allocation to maximize resilience Companies that formulate strategy and set operational priorities with a balanced investment agenda are best positioned to control their own destiny. Planning is only beneficial when it's effective, productive, and feasible, and structured toward meeting your company's specific goal. The Stress Test Every Business Needs provides a roadmap to better business through smart investment decisions"-- "Sales handles - Sales Handles (including marketing opportunities): - This is the first book that takes the "Stress Test" idea out of the world of banking and applies it to every business: The Author's article on stress-testing has had more than 5 million views on the Harvard Business Review Website since May 2016. - EY is one of the top three global professional services firms with 212,000 employees in over 700 offices around 150 countries in the world: This book explains the core IP and consulting process/strategic framework for one of the firm's four main divisions, its M & A advisory practice. The Stress Test/Capital Agenda process is central to this division's client work, thought leadership, marketing, branding and training on a global basis, so each employee in the division will have frequent opportunities to incorporate the book when engaging with clients. - Sales through events: EY's proprietary events such as the Strategic Growth Forum, regional Entrepreneur of the Year events, roundtables, and other issued-based forums would be leveraged extensively. - Direct promotion through EY's existing network: Direct promotion will occur digitally the ey.com website and other EY social media channels including LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook--both corporate and individual.
