In Search of Excellence - by Thomas Peters and Robert Waterman Jr

'Lessons from America's best run companies'

 

This is widely regarded as one of the very FIRST popular business and management books, the book that created the entire category and brought these ideas from the exclusive academic journals to the masses. 

Tom Peters and Bob Waterman worked in management consulting at McKinsey and wanted to find out what made an 'excellent' company. They found 8 common traits the excellent organisations focused on that average business neglected. This book was written in the early 1980s, but most of the lessons and recommendations are still applicable today.
