How the Mighty Fall and Why Some Companies Never Give In

The title for today is another book by Jim Collins. After writing works such as Good to Great and co-authoring Built to Last about companies that excelled in this new book he explores why some of the greats fell apart. Like Good to Great in which he expressed stages of success, in How ... he explores stages of failure.

Now as a pastor who has been predominantly appointed to churches in the downfall mode I can identify with How the Mighty Fall. It is not just a book whose author bows his head and weeps, but also a work that may well make one better attentive to the reasons for fall and the stages reversing trends up toward greatness once again.
