Summary Description
Charles G. Koch may very well be the most successful businessman you’ve never heard of. Under his leadership, Koch Industries has become a dynamic enterprise that Forbes magazine called “the world’s largest private company.”
Koch is chairman of the board and CEO, a position he has held since 1967. He credits the company’s success to a unique management methodology that he developed called Market-Based Management®, or MBM®.
MBM is a holistic approach to management that integrates theory and practice, and provides a framework for dealing with the ongoing challenges of growth and change.
Our summary of Koch’s book, The Science of Success: How Market-Based Management Built the World’s Largest Private Company, explains the proven principles used by the leaders and employees of Koch companies to get results. As you will discover, there really is a science behind success, and it can be applied to any organization, including yours.
