Beyond Performance – Scott Keller
Why do so many organizational change programs fail? According to Scott Keller and Colin Price, senior partners at McKinsey and Company, the answer is that leaders focus too narrowly on short-term performance and neglect the long-term health of their organizations. In Beyond Performance: How Great Organizations Build Ultimate Competitive Advantage, they explain why both matter.
Drawing on extensive research, including surveys of a large number of organizations, the authors argue that organizational health, the ability of an organization to align, execute and renew itself faster than its competitors, is a powerful and often overlooked source of competitive advantage. Healthy organizations are better able to sustain high performance over time and adapt to change.
Keller and Price present a framework for leading change that addresses performance and health together. They describe five stages of the change journey: setting aspirations, assessing capabilities, designing the architecture of change, taking action and advancing by continuously improving. At each stage, they offer research-based insights and practical tools, along with examples from companies that have successfully transformed.
The authors also discuss the role of leaders in driving change, how to engage employees, and the psychological factors that influence whether change efforts succeed.
Rigorous yet practical, Beyond Performance is a valuable resource for executives, managers, change leaders and consultants seeking to build organizations that perform well today and remain healthy and successful in the future.
