Building Lean Companies: How to Keep Companies Profitable as They Grow

No company is too big to fail. Learn the reasons why in a book that makes the case for decentralized, divisionalized firms that retain operating efficiency. Hans D. Baumann has almost fifty years of business experience analyzing the organizational structure and internal workings of hundreds of companies and, as a result, has reached some startling conclusions as to the major influences affecting their profitability. Ever wonder why large corporations become less profitable? Or, why old established companies such as General Motors and Delta Airlines seem to go out of business? Are larger companies really more efficient than their smaller brethren? What does a high price-to-earnings ratio really tell you about the operating efficiency of a company? Is it a good idea to hold onto the shares of a company after a merger has been concluded? Does it pay to split up a company? What is the relationship between the organization of the U.S. Army and corporate hierarchy? Why do most business mergers fail? You will find answers to these and other questions, given in a plain and sometimes humorous manner, in the book Building Lean Companies: How to Keep Companies Profitable as They Grow.
