The 6 steps that rescued and revived the 3M Corporation and how they can work for you
For the first time, Sir George Buckley, one of the world’s most respected business leaders and Chairman, President and Chief Executive of 3M, shares the 6-step plan he used to perform one of the most dramatic turnarounds in business history. In 2005 George Buckley took over 3M, the technology conglomerate behind products such as Post It Notes, Scotch Tape and Scotch Brite. The company was in trouble and dramatically underperforming. Under George's tenure, 3M has undergone a dramatic transformation and achieved a record growth rate for 2011.
As well as mapping out the esteemed turnaround story of the $30 billion multinational conglomerate, Futureproof will show readers how they can practically apply George’s methods to grow their own business, no matter how big or small, no matter what industry.
Written by one of the leading voices on the subject, this book shares practical insights into strategic growth through innovation, preparation for surviving in a changing economic climate and invites you to gain a real understanding of where your business is and – less obviously but more importantly – what your business is.
