Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap... and Others Don't
by Jim Collins. Publisher: HarperCollins; (October 16, 2001)
Reviewed by Bob Sedlak, Provost, University of Wisconsin-Stout.

"A highly readable book that analyzes the histories of 28 companies, 11 of which made the leap from good to great and the differences between them and 17 companies that did not. Stringent benchmarks were used to define a good-to-great company. Provides a solid conceptual framework to use in building an organization."
