COVID has changed the way many of us work but firms still need to plan. A McKinsey & Company study showed that companies who followed long term strategies had 47% more revenue growth and 36% more earnings growth than those who took a short term approach. However, two-thirds of executives and directors felt pressured to produce short term results.
In ‘Winning Now, Winning Later’ David M. Cote sets out the three principles of short and long term performance and making changes to “the way we’ve always done it” and encourages leaders to not lose their hunger.

This book is agreat view into how things are run at Honeywell, especially from someone who went in with outside experience. Very immersive, i can imagine being there in every meeting and those tough questions being asked. Good lessons about changing generations of customers/emloyees and their expectations of social responsibilities from the companies. Short=termism vs Long-termism is a major part of Cote's leadership. You will learn a lot from the book as well as see parallels in other companies which favor long term growth for exa Amazon.
I am very fascinated by the contradicting goals that need to be accomplished by leaders everyday eg inventory have enough of it but not too much.
