For more than half a century the developed world has been chasing productivity. It's financed our wealth but that part of output on which our continued prosperity depends - productivity growth - is petering out. The traditional scapegoat has been the dearth of worker skills. But the worker skills base has never been higher! The other explanation is that it is managers who are not giving full value to their employers. The way they're making decisions is conferring virtually no upside potential, which means they're leaving us wide open for experience-poor competitors to step into our experience-rich shoes. Exactly as Japan did in the 1960s and the so-called BRICK countries - Brazil, Russia, India, China (especially China) and Korea - are threatening now. If creeping uncompetitiveness is not to overtake us, from where are the next round of productivity gains to come from? Identifying some gaping holes in the way managers are taught to manage, this book outlines both the size of the proble

My mother had her children and several siblings to lean on. There were a lot of "huh, would have never thought of that"-moments. It is quite academic, which I appreciate; Bergen takes the time to thoroughly prove all of his points and even address the counter-arguments. That is because most of the statistics are used to show consistent trends in the sectors--it's the type of publication that could probably be updated every 10 years, but the stats are accurate and easy to read and use. Almost a mystery and different world.
I suggest you read this book. I know this keeps the cost down. I never knew that this existed in New Orleans and the history behind it was so interesting. There were a few times he opened up and I think those little glimpses really made me realize that we needed more from him.

Either way, my heart goes out to the author. It is here that Kessler voices some fairly radical opinions and theories that certainly deserve to get discussed and tested.
