Before diving into Charles Koch's The Science of Success ($23, John Wiley & Sons, 2007), you must understand two things: Koch is an engineer, born and raised in the Midwest, and he's an autodidact, with a passion for the free market theories of Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises.
Charles Koch may very well be the most successful businessman people have never heard of. Under his leadership, Koch Industries has become a dynamic and diverse enterprise that Forbes called "the world's largest private company." This groundbreaking audiobook includes the same material used by leaders and employees of Koch companies to apply Marker-Based Management (MBM) to get results. In it, Charles Koch outlines the unique management methodology developed and implemented by Koch Industries. Koch credits MBM for its 2,000-fold growth since 1967, with today having 80,000 employees in 60 countries and with $90 billion in revenues in 2006. MBM is a scientific approach to management that integrates theory and practice, and provides a framework for dealing with the ongoing challenges of growth and change. There really is a science behind success, and it can be applied to any organization. Ingen biblioteksbeskrivelser fundet. |

There are two points that I did not like: (a) the book is essentially an employee handbook for Koch employees. The price is high for a book that is essentially an advertisement for the company (b) accessing the footnotes from the text in the book did not work on my Kindle. This made it cumbersome to check the footnotes used.
Finally, it is useful to separate any judgment of the book from the controversial political opinions of its author. ( )
