Economic Value Management : Applications and Techniques

For any organization, it becomes all too easy to lose sight of the forest for the trees. Operating from a perspective that includes all constituents of the organization, Economic Value Management makes an organization more effective by clarifying decision making and establishing management practices that are replicable. Stressing the importance of consistent stewardship and the perils of failed stewardship, Eleanor Bloxham presents Economic Value Management as a means of integrating management processes, generating immediate returns, and paving the way for long term success. History has shown that good corporate governance requires the efforts of more than one constituent group. As the world becomes more complex, one important question is how can constituents know if they have the information they need to do their jobs and how can they determine if accounting information is misleading? In Economic Value Management, Eleanor Bloxham arms board members, CEOs, managers, employees, analysts, rating agencies, investors, suppliers, and customers with tools to understand what an organization is about, to go beyond the accounting equipped with the questions to get at the truth. Economic value need not be a mystery or merely an elusive idea. In Economic Value Management, Eleanor Bloxham provides proven methods and includes charts, graphs, and checklists of questions that probe value concepts, representing an action driven, implementation friendly approach to adopting Economic Value Management practices. There is no substitute for having all employees on the same page and working together toward an appropriate goal. Economic Value Management offers managers the tools to transform their operations and achieve superior results.
