Capacidad adaptativa / Adaptive Capacity
La historia empresarial esta llena de exitos y de fracasos y, si algo nos pueden ensenar, es que solo sobreviven aquellas companias que desarrollan mayor adaptabilidad al cambio. Son muchas las causas que obligan a adaptarse: un nuevo competidor, una desaceleracion economica, una fusion, nuevas regulaciones en la industria, la introduccion de tecnologia innovadora, la presion de las comunidades locales, la contratacion de un nuevo director general, la dificultad para atraer nuevos talentos, la falta de compromiso y de sentido de proposito Son cambios que las empresas tienden a afrontar haciendo un trabajo tecnico cuando deberian hacer un trabajo adaptativo, sin saberlo la mayoria de las veces. En estas paginas, Juan Carlos Eichholz te explica las cinco dimensiones clave a traves de las que una compania puede incrementar su capacidad adaptativa proposito, estrategia, estructura, cultura y talento, que ilustra con numerosos ejemplos reales de empresas de diferentes paises y sectores. Encontraras en ellas una completa vision sobre el aspecto mas importante del liderazgo contemporaneo y herramientas practicas que podras poner en marcha de forma inmediata en un entorno cada vez mas cambiante."

This book has done a few things for me:
First, it puts an end to the discussion if Culture eats Strategy for breakfast (or lunch) or the other way around: you need both (and Purpose, Structure, and Talent)
Second, it provides one of the best explanations I have read about Purpose. Not just the need to have it, but as well the variables that influence it, why and how.
Third, it has opened my mind about 'Resilience'. The definition of Resilience assumes a recovery from difficulties. In the past century that meant bouncing back, fighting off competition to go back to 'business as usual' as fast as possible. With the speed of change in the 21st century, bouncing back means you end up in a vacuum. By the time you bounced back, the 'business as usual' simply doesn't exist anymore. I find the term Adaptive Capacity, adapting 'forward' to the next reality a great term for the 21st century businesses.

Buen libro, presenta buenos ejemplos para entender las propuestas del autor. No es fácil tomar todo por sentado, puede ser mucha teoría, pero tiene puntos y enseñanzas interesantes.
