About this product
Product Information
Mercedes has made a recent move to cut complexity: Designers who were previously allowed to design cars from the ground up are now required to choose from a common set of modules (BusinessWeek, Nov. 2, 2006) * Wal*Mart has recently exited Korea and Germany, citing its inability to deal with the many differences in the retail environment there * The business community is starting to realize that simplicity, not complexity, is marketable--as evidenced by the phenomenal success of the iPod and Google's search engine. Many companies today are in crisis. Most troubling of all is that many of them aren't even aware they are in jeopardy. In their quest to attain double-digit growth in single digit markets, companies have frantically created more products, customers, markets, suppliers, services, and locations. Yet all of this complexity adds costs. Thus, as topline revenues go up, bottomline profits go down--often precipitously. Worse yet, none of today's accounting systems identify complexity costs until a company is on the edge--without understanding how they got there. The Complexity Crisis, by John L. Mariotti--the former president of Rubbermaid Office Products Group--shows readers how to track complexity and reduce or eliminate it--or alter processes to accommodate complexity that truly adds value to the business. Filled with examples of companies who have successfully conquered complexity, The Complexity Crisis shows readers how to institute new metrics and modifications to existing cost and management control systems so they can choose when to cut complexity out and when to capitalize on it. AUTHOR: John L. Mariotti (Powell, OH) is the President/CEO & Founder of The Enterprise Group, a coalition of timeshared executive advisors, which he founded in 1994. Prior to this, Mr. Mariotti was President of Rubbermaid Office Products Group. Before joining Rubbermaid, Mariotti led Huffy Bicycles as its President, to the preeminent position of industry leader in the U.S. He was Management Columnist and a Contributing Editor for IndustryWeek magazine for five years. Articles and interviews about his business career have been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Fortune, Boardroom Reports, IndustryWeek, BusinessWeek, and many more. He's been a guest on CNBC's Today's Business and Power Lunch shows.

This item didn’t come in exactly as pictured, but the seller responded immediately and was very gracious in offering me a partial refund even bough I wasn’t expecting one for what I paid for the item. I have bought from this seller before, and they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My other transactions with them have been perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.
