“* Includes your core values and purpose”
Jim Collins, Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap...And Others Don't

Jim Collins
“comparison companies frequently tried to jump right to breakthrough via an acquisition or merger. It never worked. Often with their core business under siege, the comparison companies would dive into a big acquisition as a way to increase growth, diversify away their troubles, or make a CEO look good.

Two big mediocrities joined together never make one great company.”

In reading about the flywheel, I couldn’t help but think of the principle of coherence.” However you phrase it, the basic idea is the same: Each piece of the system reinforces the other parts of the system to form an integrated whole that is much more powerful than the sum of the parts. It is only through consistency over time, through multiple generations, that you get maximum results.”
Jim Collins, Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap...And Others Don't
