Why Smart Executives Fail is a book by Sydney Finkelstein that explores
corporate mistakes—what they are, why they occur, and what managers, leaders,
and investors can do about them.



In the two years since the publication of Why Smart Executives Fail, Professor
Finkelstein has continued his research into what goes wrong in leading
organizations, and supplemented it with additional analysis of thriving, winning
organizations. The net result is a deeper understanding of the early warning
signs that differentiate successful and failing companies, before the really bad
stuff happens.

Now, in conjunction with Jackson Leadership Systems, Professor Finkelstein has
created a management tool that can help boards and senior executives identify
the leading indicators that his research has found to be predictors of trouble
down the line. The SMART Early Warning System(TM) provides a detailed snapshot
of the potential vulnerabilities and risks companies face. Armed with these
critical insights, boards and top managers can turn their attention to the most
pressing issues that need fixing, and avoid the calamities that have struck
companies like General Motors, Enron, and AIG.

For more information, click on SMART Early Warning System(TM) or call Eric
Jackson of Jackson Leadership at 905-473-7218 x222.
