Built to Last, the defining management study of the '90s, showed how great companies triumph over time and how long-term sustained performance can be engineered into the DNA of an enterprise from the very beginning. But what about companies that are not born with great DNA? How can good companies, mediocre companies, even bad companies achieve enduring greatness? Are there those that convert long-term mediocrity or worse into long-term superiority? If so, what are the distinguishing characteristics that cause a company to go from good to great? Over five years, Jim Collins and his research team have analyzed the histories of 28 companies, discovering why some companies make the leap and others don't.
The findings include: • Level 5 Leadership: A surprising style, required for greatness • The Hedgehog Concept: Finding your three circles, to transcend the curse of competence • A Culture of Discipline: The alchemy of great results • Technology Accelerators: How good-to-great companies think differently about technology • The Flywheel and the Doom Loop: Why those who do frequent restructuring fail to make the leap. This study was stimulated by Mr. Bill Meehan's (head of McKinsey in San Francisco) observation that Built to Last wasn't very helpful to companies, because the firms studied had always been great.
Most companies have been good, and never great. What should these firms do?
Jim Collins and his team have done an enormous amount of interesting work to determine whether a good company can be come a great company, and how. The answer to the former question is 'yes,' assuming that the 11 of 1435 Fortune 500 companies did not make it there by accident. The answer to the latter is less clear.
The study group identified a number of characteristics that their 11 companies had in common, which were much less frequently present in comparison companies. However, the study inexplicably fails to look at these same characteristics to see how often they succeed in the general population of companies.
If these characteristics work 100 percent of the time, you really have something. If they work 5 percent of the time, then not too much is proven. How were the 11 study companies selected?
The criteria take pages to explain in an appendix. Let me simplify by saying that their stock price growth had to be in a range from somewhat lower than to not much higher than the market averages for 15 years. Then, in the next 15 years the stocks had to soar versus the market averages and comparison companies while remaining independent. That's hard to do. The selected companies are Abbott Laboratories, Circuit City, Fannie Mae, Gillette, Kimberly-Clark, Kroger, Nucor, Philip Morris, Pitney Bowes, Walgreen, and Wells Fargo. As to the 'how,' attention was focused on what happened before and during the transition from average performance to high performance.
This book by Jim Collins is one of the most successful books to be found in the 'Business' section of your local megabookstore, and given how it purports to tell you how to take a merely good company and make it great, it's not difficult to see why that might be so. Collins and his crack team of researchers say they swam through stacks of business literature in search of info on how to pull this feat off, and came up with a list of great companies that illustrate some concepts central to the puzzle. They also present for each great company what they call a 'comparison company,' which is kind of that company with a goatee and a much less impressive earnings record. The balance of the book is spent expanding on pithy catch phrases that describe the great companies, like 'First Who, Then What' or 'Be a Hedgehog' or 'Grasp the Flywheel, not the Doom Loop.' No, no, I'm totally serious. I've got several problems with this book, the biggest of which stem from fundamentally viewpoints on how to do research. Collin's brand of research is not my kind.
