profitable growth. It is based on his last eight years of research and
consulting with companies large and small. It introduces the Growth
Portfolio, a concept that is sure to become as widely adopted as his earlier
work on customer value leadership. The Growth Portfolio decomposes the
problem of growth into five distinct disciplines, each with its own
opportunities and managerial challenges. The book discusses each growth
discipline and the strategies for managing a collection of growth
opportunities. Case examples detail the successes and failures of scores of
companies as they manage through turbulent markets and apply the concepts
detailed in this book.
