Why Bother
The biggest problem with this book is the distance between the beginning and the end.

Aha! So that¿s what went wrong!¿
Have you ever wondered why, after having spent yet another grueling, general manager-mandated week of offsite strategic planning meetings, nothing has changed? The Strategy Gap delivers some real "Aha! So that's what went wrong!" insights I hadn't thought of before. The authors also propose a framework to help companies improve their performance management processes and technology systems and include real-life examples from companies who are putting these suggestions to work. This book is the start of a dialog that the executive team of every Iarge company should be having today. I found this book very useful and I think others will, too.

The Strategy Gap
Companies have spent decades and millions to take costs out of manufacturing and time out of transaction processing. Now, the authors of "The Strategy Gap" illustrate how companies and their CFOs can take inefficiencies out of planning, budgeting, and reporting processes, and improve corporate management effectiveness in a turbulent economy. I like this book (and the online Appendix!) because it acknowledges the complexities of improving business performance management but provides stepping stones and tools for overcoming them a little at a time.
