The performance economy

The industrial economy is transforming from a production-based model into a more intelligent performance-based model. Yet despite the proven benefits that selling performance provides, too many managers and policy makers still focus on designing, manufacturing, and selling goods using costly economic models and production methods. Replete with case studies, new examples, and decades of proven research, the second edition of The Performance Economy outlines the strategies needed to face tomorrow's challenges by using science and knowledge to improve product performance, create jobs, and increase wealth and welfare. Additional topics include a description of the skills needed to produce and sell performance, details of how performance is managed over time (long-term thinking), and clear explanations that illustrate how manual and skilled jobs are created - all while reducing the consumption of non-renewable resources and contributing to a low carbon, low toxin society. This book is essential reading for all interested in development economics, and industrial and business economics.

  • "The industrial economy is turning into a functional service economy, yet too many businessmen and policymakers are still using outdated business models focused around designing and manufacturing goods for sale. This book outlines the strategies and models needed for tomorrow's challenges: how to use technology and knowledge to improve performance, create jobs and increase income. It also shows what skills will be required to produce and sell performance, manage performance over time and how manual and skilled jobs can contribute to reduce the consumption of non-renewable resources. The book shows how, by thinking 'smart', companies and governments can economically profit from technological progress and at the same time contribute to sustainable development. Replete with both successful and failed examples, the book is a useful tool for managers and politicians who want to take advantage of the business opportunities of tomorrow's functional service economy, and provides the composite metrics needed for analysis."@en
