This is a winner of the getAbstract International Book Award 2010. "Accelerating out of the Great Recession" delivers valuable, need-to-know information, including comprehensive, big-picture analysis of the global economic downturn, and practical guidance for how to take advantage during recovery phases. Topics covered include cost management reducing operating overhead while optimizing working capital; knowing when to 'cut the cord' with underperforming businesses; pursuing opportunistic partnerships, mergers and acquisitions; coping with additional government regulation and shifts in consumer behavior; accurately determining signs of recovery; and more. David Rhodes and Daniel Stelter, senior BCG partners, use case studies of businesses that have mastered past economic downturns and emerged as leaders in their respective markets and sectors. The authors also analyze present-day trends and what they say about the shape, size, and prospects of the next recovery.
