Every company relies on talent to succeed, but none so much as
professional service firms. Within this rapidly expanding,
trillion-dollar sector, people are more than "valuable assets";
they are the source of competitive advantage. Indeed, success is
determined more by the people these firms pay than by the people
who pay them. What separates the best professional firms from their
less-successful competitors? And what lessons do their experiences
hold for other talent-driven businesses? In this comprehensive
book, respected academic Jay W. Lorsch and accomplished
practitioner Thomas J. Tierney draw from rigorous research and
decades of experience to provide a practical perspective on how to
win in professional services. Their work is based on an analysis of
industry leaders in fields as diverse as law, accounting,
investment banking, advertising, information technology, executive
search, and management consulting. Aligning the Stars argues that
strategic success is achieved by building an organization of
executive-level stars whose day-to-day performance reinforces and
ultimately achieves the goals of the business. Outstanding firms
align stars across business lines, geographies, and even
generations. Through compelling real-world examples, Lorsch and
Tierney show how successful firms create and sustain alignment via:
· Strategy: Determining which elements of strategy are most
important and why-and how effective implementation incorporates
organizational realities. · People Systems: Converting talent into
stars, while nurturing "firm first" behaviors. · Structure and
Governance: Organizing around partnership principles-even in a
corporate environment. · Culture: Actively managing the culture to
guide-and control-individual behavior. · Leadership: Exercising
effective leadership when the power to control "partner-peers" is
limited. · Careers: Aligning individual stars by helping
professionals build a life, not just a resume. By showing how to
integrate strategy, organization, and the needs of individual
stars, this book offers valuable lessons for the current and future
leaders of every talent-driven business.AUTHORBIO:Jay W. Lorsch is
