Hunger in Paradise

“Over the past five years it has been my mission to understand not only why successful companies fail at an increasingly faster rate, but also to explain how they can remain vibrant, profitable and ahead of the pack. I have spoken to CEOs from top companies, studied the research of leading psychologists, and I have reflected deeply on my own experiences as a founder and a director of organisations which have enjoyed a degree of success.”


In this book Rasmus Ankersen, delivers solutions to some of the toughest management questions you can imagine: how do you keep complacency out of the building when everything appears rosy? How do you act with urgency when there seems to be no obvious burning platform in sight? In other words: how do you create hunger in paradise?
