Manage Costs to Increase Profit and Enhance Performance

Coming September 2025​

Are growth, innovation, and profitability mutually exclusive? Absolutely not. The key to achieving all three objectives is keeping your company lean.

Bloat creeps into companies as they grow. It dulls cutting-edge innovation, slows response to changing economic conditions, whittles down profitability, and hinders growth. You will not curtail organizational bloat by doing what you have always done. Companies need a new strategy.

In this book, author Duane Deason presents a refreshing approach to making an organization lean and unleashing its potential: create a Cost Management Center. Think of it this way—while your Sales team focuses on revenue, your Cost Management Center focuses on managing and controlling costs throughout the organization.

Get step-by-step advice to establish a Cost Management Center to eliminate the common culprits of bloat, waste, and inefficiency. Then dive into tips and strategies to maximize the effectiveness of that initiative to transform your company. In doing so, you will be well positioned for optimal performance, enhanced growth, superior innovation, and increased profit.
