Survival of an organistaion is beset by continuing internal and external challenges which come in the form of a weak economy, increasing costs, new competitors, ineffective organisation structure, etc. Most organisations crumble under pressure, but there are some that manage to turn each challenge into an opportunity by reacting with an appropriate response at the appropriate time. Usually these companies have leaders at the top who ably guide the company through the crisis by adopting strategies like cost reduction, organisational restructuring, acquisitions, etc.

This book, Case Studies on Turnaround Strategies Vol. I incorporates case studies of those organisations that exemplify remarkable turnaround efforts. The cases highlight the crisis situations that the companies faced and how they were handled to prevent a decline. All cases draw on real-time management problems and each case shows the importance of leadership in the turnaround. Students, faculty and executives therefore benefit immensely as the cases help identify the skills necessary to turn a troubled company around. With the help of this book the practitioner of a turnaround will be able to design a more effective strategy.
