5.0 out of 5 stars
Basically McKinsey Mind - but much better,
This review is from: Getting It Right: Notre Dame on Leadership and Judgment in Business (J-B US non-Franchise Leadership) (Hardcover)
As the title of my review indicates, some of the content of this book is quite similar to the book "The McKinsey Mind" by another former McKinseyite. However, this book is far superior to that title on a number of fronts.
My favorite features so far are: -Storytelling format makes for an easy/enjoyable read. -Real cases in each chapter really help you visualize how you might tackle tough problems you come across. -Both good and bad examples of the "tools of the trade" are presented and discussed in detail. (Hypothesis Statements, Issue trees, Work plans, etc) -Each chapter ends with comments from execs in industry highlighting key learning moments from their careers. Google senior VP in Chap 2, GE CFO in Chap 3, etc. -The later chapters also include a focus on implementation--not something I remember being included in The McKinsey Mind--at least apparently not in a memorable fashion. Solid book. |
