Andy Grove, founder and former CEO of Intel shares his strategy for success as he takes the reader deep inside the workings of a major company in Only the Paranoid Survive .Under Andy Grove's leadership, Intel became the world's largest chip maker and one of the most admired companies in the world. In Only the Paranoid Survive , Grove reveals his strategy for measuring the nightmare moment every leader dreads--when massive change occurs and a company must, virtually overnight, adapt or fall by the wayside--in a new way.Grove calls such a moment a Strategic Inflection Point, which can be set off by almost mega-competition, a change in regulations, or a seemingly modest change in technology. When a Strategic Inflection Point hits, the ordinary rules of business go out the window. Yet, managed right, a Strategic Inflection Point can be an opportunity to win in the marketplace and emerge stronger than ever.Grove underscores his message by examining his own record of success and failure, including how he navigated the events of the Pentium flaw, which threatened Intel's reputation in 1994, and how he has dealt with the explosions in growth of the Internet. The work of a lifetime, Only the Paranoid Survive is a classic of managerial and leadership skills.

L'ex-président d'Intel, montre aux cadres comment augmenter leur productivité. De façon spéctaculaire ! Andrew S. Grove et le légendaire Alfred Sloan ont un point commun : ce n'est pas en observateurs, mais en praticiens qu'ils étudient l'art du management. Ils ont par ailleurs choisi tous deux de partager leur savoir avec d'autres managers. Orfèvre en la matière, puisqu'il dirige une société de haute technologie, Grove nous raconte une des réussites frappantes du management à l'américaine. Grove fut en 1968 l'un des fondateurs d'Intel Corporation, une des principales entreprises de la Silicon Valley. Citons Dun's Review : "Intel a inventé la puce mémoire et le microprocesseur, deux innovations majeures qui ont marqué l'avènement de 1ère électronique actuelle. Le plus surprenant est sans doute que cette société toute jeune, renommée pour son inventivité technologique, soit tout aussi remarquable sur le plan de la gestion, du marketing, de la finance, comme d'ailleurs dans tous les domaines qui font la réussite d'une entreprise." Par une approche progressive, Grave montre au cadre, quel que soit son niveau, comment utiliser les techniques de management mises au point chez Intel. S'il applique à sa fonction les principes de la fabrication, s'il sait acquérir un maximum d'influence en choisissant d'accomplir lui-même certaines tâches, s'il sait par ailleurs exiger de ses subordonnés une performance de pointe, le manager saura faire bénéficier ceux qui l'entourent de cet esprit d'équipe qui se manifeste d'ordinaire sur les stades.
