The Upside of the Downturn

"Business journalist Geoff Colvin writes that the recession presents some intrepid managers with a rare opportunity to reinvent themselves and their businesses. He proposes 10 strategies that firms of all sizes can use to compete in the post-recession world." The Washington Post

"Credit Geoff Colvin with sharing everything he knows that can help many (if not most) companies to survive and then prevail during the current recession, and eventually thrive in its aftermath. I suggest that business leaders who read this book think of it as a hybrid: a wake-up call/reality check and an operations manual." Examiner.com

"For an incurable glass-half-full optimist, the title was full of hope. The book is not quite so, but yet, I found it an easy, if not engaging (at times), read. Subtitled “Ten Management Strategies to Prevail in the Recession and Thrive in the Aftermath”, that is exactly how Colvin has laid out the chapters." Aspire
