Investment Leadership: Building a Winning Culture for Long-Term Success clearly identifies those elements of leadership that significantly contribute to an investment firm's sustainable success. Combining an in-depth knowledge of the investment industry with time-tested, research-based concepts and tools in the areas of leadership and culture, author Jim Ware, with the help of Beth Michaels and Dale Primer, reveals the secrets of long-term success in the investment industry.
Divided into five information-rich parts, Investment Leadership provides you with the tools to:
- Understand the leadership factors that contribute to sustainable growth
- Diagnose a firm's culture and understand why it is important
- Replicate best practices from leading firms
- Communicate more effectively across all asset classes
- Identify which nonfinancial firms will be outstanding performers
- Assess investment managers and compare them to one another
Whether you're an outstanding investment leader such as Jack Brennan at Vanguard or a newcomer to the investment industry, understanding investment leadership is now more important than ever. This comprehensive resource will prepare you for a variety of investment leadership and corporate culture issues through coverage of the behavioral descriptions of leadership and culture, explanations of how you can quantify the people side of the business, and discussions of how to improve your firm's goal setting, compensation, and succession planning.
In light of the collapse of Enron and other recent corporate failures, many investors are left wondering what roles leadership, culture, and values play in today's financial industry. With the help of diagnostic tools, practical advice from industry leaders, and real-life case studies, Investment Leadership sets out to explore these issues and answer many of the pressing questions facing today's investment professional.
