Sharpening Your Skills: Leading Change
There’s nothing like a global recession to test one’s change-management skills. Here are four articles from the HBS Working Knowledge vault about building a business in a down economy, motivating the troops, and other current topics. See http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/6232.html.
Why Do Countries Adopt International Financial Reporting Standards?
Why do some countries adopt the EU–based International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) when others do not? In this working paper, Assistant Professor Karthik Ramanna and MIT Sloan School of Management’s Ewa Sletten examine variations in the decision to adopt the IFRS standards in over 100 non-EU countries. See http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/6212.html.
Don’t Just Survive — Thrive: Leading Innovation in Good Times and Bad
Cost cutting and restructuring are just the first steps in coping with the current global financial crisis and defining how business will be conducted in the future. In this working paper, Professor Lynda Applegate and Senior Lecturer Bruce Harreld describe how IBM managed to survive a crisis in the early 1990s and reposition itself to lead the industry. The lesson from IBM is that innovation is not a side business but the very foundation of a successful business. See http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/6186.html.
