DRIVING DOWN COST
WILEMAN A. wydawnictwo: BREALEY , rok wydania 2008, wydanie I cena netto: 150.00 Twoja cena 142,50 zł + 5% vat - dodaj do koszyka "Driving Down Cost" is the first accessible and practical book to address
cost management in a general and holistic way for managers at every level and in every
function. Andrew Wileman sets out a structured, practical approach to intelligent cost
management, offering a toolkit of key ideas and cost management strategies, frameworks for
analysing cost, and practical techniques for implementing cost-reduction programmes. Cost
management is not an issue only for the CEO, or for senior management, or for technical
specialists.
Junior managers who are proactively tight on cost are learning good habits for the future,
ones that will bring them recognition and advance their climb up the organizational chart.
And cost management is relevant to private-sector businesses and public-sector
organizations, and to managers in every function.You only need to engage in high-profile
cost cutting if you haven't been effective at long-haul cost management. While this book
does cover one-off cost reduction programmes, its main theme is what interests most
managers - a sustained cost management programme.
In this timely book Andrew Wileman gives you the inside scoop on what has worked for him
over years of consulting on costs. He looks at the smart ways cost can be created and the
even more innovative ways they can be cut - like getting your customers to do your work
for you, or turning cost into revenue.Sometimes cost management is in fashion, sometimes
it is out of vogue. As it happens, the US, the UK and other big Western economies are
currently appearing shaky.
A cost-cutting wave looks imminent and this book's theme seems prescient. But actually,
timing does not and should not matter. In three or five years' time growth will be back,
but cost will still be critical.
Cost management is not just for downturns, but for always.
