The
Neglected Firm
Every manager must manage two firms: the present one
and the future one
By Jorge A. Vasconcellos e Sa
Palgrave Publishers Ltd, 2002
ISBN 0-333-98712-8
140 pages
“When
you don’t know where you want to go, the wind always
blows from the wrong direction.”
Every
manager must manage two companies simultaneously: the present
firm and the future firm. Neglecting the future firm will
cause the organization to become obsolete given the change
of the business environment from day to day. Managing only
the future firm and neglecting the present day-to-day business
will never get the company to its future goals.
The
art of balancing the management of the urgent (today) with
the important (future) is presented in this book through
two detailed case studies of the Swedish car manufacturer
Saab and the Spanish financial institution, Caja de Madrid.
