Name: Great by choice
Author: Jim Collins

In Great by Choice, Jim Collins and Morten Hansen draw on nine years of rigorous research and over twenty case studies to explain why certain companies excel in chaotic, unpredictable environments. The authors examine “10X companies” that have outperformed their industry indexes by at least ten times over fifteen years, contrasting them with firms that failed to reach similar heights in similarly extreme conditions. The book moves beyond performance metrics, focusing on the adaptive strategies and leadership practices that enable enterprises to flourish even when confronted with rapid, uncontrolled forces.
