      Summary of How The Mighty Fall (Jim Collins)

      Book Abstract

      MAIN IDEA

      Why is it that sometimes, previously successful companies stumble and fail? Recent events in the financial markets have shown that no matter how great your organization is at the present time or has been in the past, it’s not inevitable that you will automatically remain strong forever. Anyone can fall – and most eventually do. To stave off that decline, you need to be picking up on the early warning signals and reverse your course while you still have time and resources to act.

      In particular, corporate and institutional decline tends to follow a well mapped five stage process like this:

      If you are aware of the five stages of corporate decline which companies always tend to move through in sequence and pick up on the subtle clues which may be arising in your organization at the present time, you can get to work applying the brakes early and reverse course. Above all, you can avoid self-inflicted decline.

      Whether you prevail or fail, endure or die, depends more on what you do to yourself than on what the world does to you.

      – Jim Collins
