The author of the bestselling The 80/20 Principle reveals a powerful new strategy for any company
For the past forty years, Richard Koch has worked to uncover simple and elegant principles which govern business success. To qualify, a principle must be so overwhelmingly powerful that anyone can reliably apply it to generate extraordinary results.
Working with venture capitalist Greg Lockwood, Koch has now found one elemental principle that unites extraordinarily valuable companies such as IKEA, Honda and Uber: simplifying. Some firms simplify on price - consider budget flights stripped of all extras that still take you from A to B - creating new, huge mass markets for their wares. Others, such as Apple, simplify their proposition, bringing a beautiful, easy-to-use product or service to a large, premium market.
How can your business become a simplifier? With case studies of some of the most famous firms, from finance to fast food, this enlightening book shows how to analyse any company's potential to simplify, and enrich the world.
'There are few books and even fewer concepts that can truly revolutionize a business, a product and an industry. Richard Koch's Simplify is a book that will forever change the landscape of business'
George Contos, CEO of World Wide Metric and author of Growing Up Metric
