40 years after “The Turnaround,” the SRC story continues to shape how companies think about open-book management, employee ownership, and business literacy. The opening spread of Inc.’s August 1986 cover story, “The Turnaround,” which introduced SRC’s story and early open-book management practices to a national business audience.
Our approach to running a company was developed to help close one of the biggest gaps in business: the gap between managers and employees. We call our open-book approach The Great Game of Business. What lies at the heart of The Game is a very simple proposition: The best, most efficient, most profitable way to operate a business is to give everybody in the company a voice in saying how the company is run and a stake in the outcome. Let us teach you how to develop a culture of ownership, where employees think, act and feel like owners.
