Leadership in the Era of Economic Uncertainty
The new rules for getting the right things done in difficult times
Ram Charan
| April 9, 2009
By Reg Nordman
Very helpful little book with the kind of advice Charan is famous for. I took away a few things that made a lot of sense. Assume the worst scenario and plan for it. If things are not that bad you can adjust later. It is human nature to think that things can not be that bad.
Once you have a plan in place, create a plan for when things get better - you will have the advantage over those who do not move quickly enough. Thus the Lehman CEO went down while the Merrill Lynch CEO lives to fight another day.
