Praise for The Success Formula “Andrew Kakabadse’s book offers unique insights and practical suggestions. Success, particularly in turbulent and unpredictable environments, is driven by value and decisions anchored to value. A recent parliamentary commission on future of management identified people, purpose, and potential as drivers of success. This book offers practical suggestions in all three areas.” Professor Abby Ghobadian, Head of School of Leadership, Organisations and Behaviour, Henley Business School “In front of the ‘hard’ leaders are the smart leaders. A world filled with smart leaders.” Yvon Pesqueux, Professor, Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers, Paris, France “Understanding what makes a successful organisation is vital in today’s fast changing environment – The Success Formula explores the relationship between, values, evidence, strategy and engagement.” Lesley King-Lewis, CEO, Windsor Leadership “Finally we have a book which recognizes that organizations cannot achieve genuine sustainability unless social value is given equal weighting to shareholder, other stakeholder and financial value. If there is a strong values base, diversity of thinking and effective governance, organizations can build long-lasting success.” Simon Osborne FCIS, Chief Executive ICSA “This book contains a multitude of insights concerning success that Andrew has derived from interviews with senior managers from over a 100 organizations in 14 countries. It provides much useful advice as to how to recognize successful organizations and how to determine what is required to make success a reality.” Dr Chris Pierce, CEO, Global Governance Services Ltd., London “Kakabadse’s extensive global research shows how few top companies have a proper engagement with their stakeholders and his evidence reveals the great and sustainable success arise from so doing. A must read for the C suite and the Board.” John Board, Dean of Henley Business School “Once again, Dr Kakabadse’s in depth research draws out governance and dynamic governance insights, helping us to drive value in our companies.” Yasmin Allen BCom, FAICD and Company Director, IAG, Cochlear and Santos Ltd “The evidence-based account, and unparalleled access, of Professor Kakabadse cuts like a knife to the very heart of this complex and frequently misunderstood subject. This book is a must read for anybody attempting to come to terms with organizational success - or failure.” Dr Ian Richardson, Director of Executive Education, Stockholm Business School, Stockholm University “I read The Success Formula with great interest, and recommend it to any business manager who seeks to ensure the health and continuity of the enterprise he/she leads. Andrew Kakabadse’s guidelines in this book strike me as convincing and eminently practical.” André van Heemstra, Former member of the board of Unilever “This book is about leadership, about sustaining vision and values to deliver consistent quality, about the humility to respect the team and the intellectual rigor to challenge its certainties. This is a manual on how values generate value.” Dr. Ilia Roubanis, Athens “The Success Formula is a refreshing read for those leaders committed to employee engagement and transformational results. It underlines the role of the leader in building alignment and delivering results based on trust, authenticity and a clear Organisational purpose.” John Pollaers, Chairman of the Australian Advanced Manufacturing Council and Former CEO of Fosters Group and Pacific Brands “There a few books which combine such outstanding academic knowledge and real world experience on leadership as this one. Government and business leaders in Europe should use it when preparing for the challenge to bring back economic growth and social progress.” Dr Stefan Schepers, Secretary General of the independent tripartite High Level Group on Innovation Policy Management (2012–2014) “Andrew and David have produced seriously worthwhile insights and a global perspective on success. They focus on reality coupled with sound delivery processes as a basis for successful decisions and that’s just the beginning!” Peter Jollie, Director, Reliance Rail “Kakabadse has produced yet another outstanding work, cutting through the complexity of leadership to the heart of the issue to provide an accessible and actionable formula for success.” Robert Galavan, Professor of Strategic Management, National University of Ireland Maynooth The Success Formula The Success Formula How smart leaders deliver outstanding value Andrew Kakabadse Bloomsbury Information An imprint of Bloomsbury Publishing Plc LON DON • N E W DE L H I • N E W YOR K • SY DN EY Bloomsbury Information An imprint of Bloomsbury Publishing Plc 50 Bedford Square 1385 Broadway London New York WC1B 3DP NY 10018 UK USA www.bloomsbury.com BLOOMSBURY and the Diana logo are trademarks of Bloomsbury Publishing Plc First published 2015 © Andrew Kakabadse, 2015 Andrew Kakabadse has asserted his right under the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act, 1988, to be identified as Author of this work.
