Economic Value
Management
by Eleanor Bloxham
|
|
Featured recently in the press as
the new basis of pay.
About Economic Value Management, Mary
Schapiro, incoming SEC chair, wrote: “Educated investors are essential
to successfully functioning capital markets. At this critical time in
our financial history, restoring the confidence in our financial
system lost over the past year will depend upon financial advisors and
investors truly understanding the companies they invest in. As
Economic Value Management shows, being educated means more than
understanding the unique language of the stock market, it is more than
reading a prospectus or an annual report, it is more than listening to
an analyst’s opinions. Being educated requires a genuine understanding
of the value of a company.”

Economic
Value Management has been
translated into Orthodox Chinese.
From HBS Working Knowledge:
"Most corporate leaders and investors would agree at some level that
companies should be run for the long term, not just quarter by
quarter... As author Bloxham sees it, we all scurry around each day
checking off items on our to-do lists without lifting our heads to
see the big picture...Can the system be changed?... The book
outlines new methods for performance assessment, value-based
strategy, process, and technology, organizational structure, the
reward process, and training and communication. A good read for
managers who want to see the horizon as well as a foot in front of
them." |
