Description

How should you grow your organisation? It's one of the most challenging questions an executive team faces, and the wrong answer can break your firm. So where do you start?

By asking the right questions, argue INSEAD's Laurence Capron and co-author Will Mitchell, of Duke University's Fuqua School of Business and the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto. Drawing on more than two decades of research and teaching, Capron and Mitchell have found that a firm's aptitude for determining the best "resource pathways" for its growth has a defining impact on its success.

They've come up with a helpful framework, reflecting practices of a variety of successful global organisations, to help you determine which path is best for yours.

Build, Borrow, or Buy offers insights into making the strategic decision of how your organisation should grow. Explore the frameworks and case studies that can guide you to better decision-making and sustainable success.
