Faculty Works

Charisma and networking ability were identified as unique factors of the political skill construct domain while PSI dimensions of social astuteness, interpersonal influence, and apparent sincerity collapsed to form a single dimension. Study One results also indicated a …

Book Review Of: Jim Collins - Good To Great, Harper Business, Mohammad Ahsan Siddique
Book Review Of: Jim Collins - Good To Great, Harper Business, Mohammad Ahsan Siddique
Business Review
Good is the Enemy of great. This statement is the theme of this book and needs elaboration. Jim Collins is of the view that all too often we get the job done, without striving for quality. We do not dot the “I”s nor cross the tees, with the premise that even without it the job is good enough. And it is. But it is not great; it is not something that would impart it a lasting high quality.
