Overview

Managers and leaders are buried beneath an avalanche of data and obligations made possible by our interconnected world. In the 38 countries where AT Kearney operates, this has caused leadership and decision-making strategies sto be tymied and delayed. As a result, people (and organizations) everywhere are feeling disoriented, bewildered, and even paralyzed. The causes range from the proliferation of product choice to the relentless ""information smog"" of 24/7 always-on email and social media. The results include not just overload, but a degraded ability to think and act decisively. This book sets out the four guiding principles that will lead us out from under the avalanche and into a more productive future: simplify, decrease, innovate, and plan.
