A No-Nonsense, Step-by-Step, Results-Driven Approach to Driving Business Transformation and Breakthrough Performance
Why do most corporations fail to achieve breakthrough performance? They make things too complex. They clutter it with jargon and confusion. They dither on the launch pad. They hire too many consultants, chase after too many fads. It doesn’t have to be that complicated. Whatever your goal, whatever your role, Michael T. Kanazawa and Robert H. Miles introduce a simple, practical, 100% results- driven approach that works. Drawing on their experience working with hundreds of senior executives, they show how to align your organization behind just a few core initiatives; bias your people toward speed; create leaders at every level; and achieve traction and accountability in all facets of execution. You’ll learn how to engage people instead of frustrating them, and harness their energy instead of wasting it. Whether you’re executing a new initiative, entering a new market, or attempting to transform your entire enterprise, this book will help you find the right path, clear the obstacles, and get there–surely and quickly.
Today’s companies recognize that they must constantly improve at every level, from frontline customer-facing functions to enterprise-wide strategy. They must execute bold new strategic initiatives more effectively... integrate and align acquisitions more quickly...and accelerate and sustain growth in the face of unprecedented competition. But wherever business transformation and breakthrough performance must occur, many of the challenges are the same.
Now, there’s a breakthrough methodology for overcoming these challenges. In BIG Ideas to BIG Results, Michael T. Kanazawa and Robert H. Miles introduce the Accelerated Corporate Transformation (ACT) methodology: A simple, no-nonsense process that is grounded in reality, inclusive of people, and 100% results-oriented.
Drawing on over twenty years refining and applying ACT, initially at Harvard Business School and then in leading enterprises, Kanazawa and Miles identify crucial steps to success, as well as practical solutions to the inevitable roadblocks you’ll face. Their #1 insight: Many obstacles stem from managers making situations and decisions more complex than they really are, and taking too much time to get ready. ACT strips away complexity and indecision, helping you move far more rapidly and predictably from strategy development through execution. Designed by leaders for leaders, this book will help you execute more rapidly and lead more effectively, to achieve breakthrough performance at any level, in any function, in any organization.

“A recently released book, titled BIG Ideas to BIG Results: Remake and Recharge Your Company, Fast, states that the reason corporate initiatives fail is because they are too complex and instead promotes a simple, practical approach.”
- Chief Learning Officer Magazine, March 31, 2008
“The authors also caution leaders about what to avoid when launching a new initiative. One typical half-hearted commitment is the dreaded “pilot” project–a feel-good initiative that allows individuals or departments resistant to change to delay their participation in a new initiative. Executives must root out lingering opposition early and demand that any nonurgent work that could compete with the new project be shelved temporarily.”
- T+D Magazine, April 2008
“Michael Kanazawa, CEO of Dissero Partners and Robert Miles, chairman of Dissero, outline a step-by-step approach to driving business transformation and performance. The solution? In a word, simplify.”
- Consulting Magazine, March/April 2008
“Michael Kanazawa knows a thing or two about dysfunctional companies. After all, he used to work in a cubicle down the hall from Scott Adams, creator of the comic strip "Dilbert." This book shares the technique they teach for corporate change. It's called ACT, or Accelerated Corporate Transformation.”
