This book provides real-world guidelines for implementing EVA. Today's most comprehensive and unbiased evaluation of Value-Based Management and EVA Economic Value Added (EVA) and Value Based Management (VBM), despite persistent claims to the contrary, are not magic wands, guaranteeing instant success. Instead, they are a set of management tools - powerful tools, to be sure, proven to work in case after case - for creating and augmenting shareholder value. And as with any tools, users will achieve the greatest success only by learning and understanding both their strengths and weaknesses."EVA and Value Based Management" is the first book to fully explain all sides of EVA and VBM, and cover the critical factors in harnessing EVA and VBM to build shareholder value. It provides in-depth coverage of the key steps in implementing EVA, including: determining your cost of capital; using accounting adjustments to make EVA a better measure of performance; identifying value drivers to guide performance improvement; and, tying management compensation to EVA.The sustained creation of shareholder value doesn't happen by accident - it happens because companies plan for it. Let "EVA and Value Based Management" give you the clear, concise, and up-to-date information you need on EVA and VBM - what they are, why they work, and how they can work for you - and then show you how to use that information to reach your own informed conclusions. Managers - even those from just a quarter century ago - would have a difficult time recognizing today's business climate.In the new world order, companies must prove their worth in both commercial markets (making and selling the best products and ideas) and capital markets (creating value through optimal use of all available resources, all the time). Those that fall behind in either pursuit will find the climb to market leadership difficult if not impossible. "EVA and Value Based Management" is the first book to frankly and comprehensively discuss the pros and cons of Economic Value Added (EVA) and Value Based Management (VBM) - proven in numerous cases to increase shareholder value while strengthening organizations in which they are successfully implemented. Written by award-winning INSEAD professor S. David Young and leading management expert Stephen F.O ' Byrne, it covers both conceptual and implementation issues, placing a strong emphasis on performance measurement, value drivers, and management compensation.Look to "EVA and Value Based Management" for: a clear explanation of the concepts behind EVA and VBM; a highly practical guide to implementing EVA for performance measurement and incentive compensation, with dozens of real world examples; an honest assessment of the pros and cons of EVA and competing value-based approaches; and, a frank discussion of the company characteristics that help or hinder successful EVA implementation, helping you to decide whether EVA and VBM are right for your organization.Many prominent corporate leaders have long proclaimed - and, even more significant, put to the real-world test - the benefits of EVA. In "EVA and Value Based Management", management experts S. David Young and Stephen F. O'Byrne define and discuss EVA, then present a simple, easy-to-understand approach for determining how it will succeed in your organization. The result is an all-inclusive, no-holds-barred overview of value-based management and EVA - and today's most valuable, practical guidebook for implementing a highly effective, performance driven management program.

这本书的行文风格,如同一场节奏精准的交响乐,开篇的沉稳铺垫,中段的高潮迭起,直至结尾处对未来图景的宏大展望,都处理得恰到好处。我尤其钟爱其对“组织惰性”的解剖,作者没有将责任完全归咎于员工或中层管理,而是将其视为系统设计缺陷的必然产物。书中提出的“反脆弱性设计原则”,对我启发极大,它不再仅仅是追求“鲁棒性”(抗打击能力),而是追求在打击中反而能获得成长的能力。这种哲学观的转变,是这本书最宝贵的财富之一。它指导我们如何主动拥抱“建设性的混乱”,而不是一味地去消除所有不确定性。此外,作者在对比不同文化背景下价值驱动模式的差异时,展现了其深厚的跨文化管理功底,使得整本书的适用范围被极大地拓宽,不再局限于某一地域或某一特定行业。它提供了一种普适性的、关乎“存在意义”的商业哲学,指导企业如何在一个快速变化的世界中,找到并坚守自己的核心价值锚点。
评分这本关于管理哲学的著作,如同一把精妙的瑞士军刀,精准地剖开了当代企业运营中那些看似复杂实则根基不稳的结构。作者的笔触如同经验丰富的外科医生,冷静而深入地解构了“价值”这个在商业语境中被过度消费的词汇。我特别欣赏书中对于传统KPI体系的批判性审视,它并非简单地将其束之高阁,而是深入探讨了指标背后的行为驱动力。书中详述的几种情境模拟,让我得以站在更高维度去审视日常决策的短视性。例如,书中对“隐性成本”的界定,远超出了财务报表上的数字游戏,它触及了企业文化、员工忠诚度等更难量化的领域。阅读过程中,我不断被书中提出的挑战性问题所吸引——“你所追求的效率,是否以牺牲未来的弹性为代价?”这种发人深省的提问,促使我重新评估了我所在组织中那些被奉为圭臬的管理教条。整体而言,它提供了一套扎实的思维框架,帮助我们从“完成任务”的泥沼中抽身,转而关注那些真正能为长远发展奠定基石的战略性行动。这本书对于那些厌倦了肤浅管理术语,渴望真正理解驱动企业长期成功的底层逻辑的专业人士来说,无疑是一剂强心针。
评分我必须承认,这本书的阅读体验是极具挑战性的,它要求读者投入百分之百的专注力,但回报却是惊人的深度洞察。作者在探讨“风险溢价”与“组织韧性”之间的辩证关系时,所引用的经济学模型是相当前沿且严谨的。我欣赏其拒绝采用简单的二元对立来简化问题,而是细致入微地描绘了价值链上各个环节的相互依赖性。例如,书中关于“延迟满足”在项目投资决策中的应用,不仅提供了量化工具,更深入分析了在高度不确定性市场中,管理层如何抵御短期诱惑,坚持长期价值的培育。我个人认为,书中对“无形资产的资本化”的讨论,是其最具有开创性的部分之一。它不再将品牌、人才视为软性因素,而是将其融入到严谨的现金流折现模型中,提供了一种全新的评估工具。这本书的文字密度很高,需要反复阅读才能完全消化其深层含义,但对于那些渴望超越行业平均水平,追求卓越绩效的深度思考者来说,这本书提供的是一套可以内化的“底层操作系统”,而非一时的“补丁程序”。
评分我花了整整一个月的时间,将这本书作为我工作日程的一部分进行精读,其带来的思维冲击至今仍在持续发酵。最让我印象深刻的是,作者如何将复杂的博弈论思想巧妙地融入日常的资源分配决策中。书中关于“囚徒困境”在内部部门协作中重现的分析,极其犀利,它揭示了当激励机制设计不当时,理性个体行为如何共同导向集体的非理性结果。与市场上充斥的“快速成功指南”不同,这本书没有提供任何速效药方,它提供的是一套复杂的诊断工具和手术刀。书中对“价值链的重构”的论述,不再是简单的流程再造,而是从客户体验的终点倒推至核心能力的重塑,这是一种自上而下的、近乎于颠覆性的思维路径。阅读完最后一章,我感到一种久违的、对管理事业的热情被重新点燃——不是因为书中许诺了利润的飞跃,而是因为它清晰地指明了,真正的价值创造,是建立在深刻理解人性、系统和时间维度之上的严谨工程。这本书不适合走马观花的读者,它属于那些愿意为心智成长付出时间和精力的严肃管理者。
评分初翻此书,我原以为会陷入枯燥的理论说教,但很快便被其行文的叙事张力所捕获。作者似乎拥有将复杂模型转化为生动故事的天赋。书中的案例分析,比如那个关于跨国并购后整合失败的篇章,其细节之丰富、对人性弱点的捕捉之精准,几乎可以作为商业案例教学的范本。我特别留意到书中对“期望值管理”的论述,它强调了在价值创造过程中,沟通的艺术性远胜于技术本身的完美性。这与我过去所接触的侧重于流程优化的书籍形成了鲜明的对比。这本书更像是一部关于“领导力心智”的修炼手册,它教导的不是如何设置陷阱来激励下属,而是如何构建一个环境,使得内在动机自然而然地涌现。章节间的逻辑过渡极其流畅,仿佛在跟随一位经验丰富的导师进行一对一的深度辅导。每当我觉得自己已经领悟了某个关键点时,作者总能抛出一个新的视角,迫使我打破既有的认知边界。对于中高层管理者而言,这本书的价值在于它能有效地弥合“理论认知”与“实际操作”之间的巨大鸿沟。
