Description
Great companies don’t usually collapse overnight—they slide through a predictable sequence of decline that can be spotted early if leaders know what to look for. Drawing on years of research, Jim Collins shows that the common explanation—complacency—is often incomplete, and that many failures follow a more nuanced pattern of denial, missteps, and increasingly desperate attempts to “save” the business. Using real-world case studies, including examples from major organizations that stumbled into crisis, the book maps the stages of deterioration and highlights the signals that precede them. At its core, this is a practical study of resilience and strategic discipline: how to recognize risk and respond before momentum turns into irreversible decline.
