Ideas for cost reduction and for good management are mixed interchangeably, just as in real life. Cost reduction and control are reliable strategies in any business phase, with benefit likely to be much higher than the cost. Many of us have been told at one time or another, find ways to cut cost. An "or else" relating to survival may have been spoken or implied. An evil economy may have conveyed the same message to the organization and its executives. Chapters in this book include: Cost reduction, the basics Cost reduction management Accounting aspects; keeping the books Keep it simple, sir or sweetheart Cherry pick at the management level; examples Beyond cherry picking: examples Five very effective tools which lead to cost reduction Do your internal operating practices interfere?
