Reviews / Votes

'Bridging the gap between engineering and management to achieve a highly effective business organization is a Herculean task, with commendable texts few and far between. Dr Kumar's new work fits that niche perfectly, using non-academic language and vivid case studies to give a manager superior advice on how to envision, plan, and execute a winning business strategy regardless of the product or industry involved. This is powerful stuff, based upon Dr Kumar's long and successful career in both manufacturing and in the executive suite. Read it, and put it into practice, and both survival and profitability are likely to be one's reward, especially in difficult economic times. My engineering management students will have it in their book lists.' - Alexis N Sommers, Professor Industrial Engineering & MSIE Program Coordinator, University of New Haven, USA '...Masterfully written in practical terms, the text serves as a guide to developing performance excellence by capitalizing on the organization's core competency, vision, and leadership to: 1) refine operations-oriented initiatives; 2) use growth strategy tools; and 3) create an executable strategy that transforms the business to ensure sustainability and growth. It is a must read for those who envision revenue, profitability and growth.' - Dr Deb Manzo, North Carolina State University 'Today's leaders are challenged to focus simultaneously on the top-line and bottom-line.
