Why are some professional firms so successful? And how do they deal with the imperative of constant change? The one phrase that people generally associate with the leopard is that it "cannot change its spots", which is strange given that leopards do in fact develop entirely different colouring and patterns in response to their environment. In this thought-provoking book the authors use the analogy of the leopard's spots to illus¬trate how firms can deal with the continuing pressures for change. The leopard combines adaptability and balance with a fundamental integrity of character. Finding a successful approach to renewal that combines these three characteristics is the challenge that faces every professional firm. The authors have both been Managing Partners of strategy consulting firms and have many years of experience in the professional services sector. They have been associated with im¬pressive success and have both lived through spectacular failure, and the lessons they have learned are to be found throughout the book. Rich in examples and insights, this is essential reading for all leaders and aspiring leaders of professional firms and teams. "A major contribution to the study of professional service firms, containing clear analyses of firm strat¬egy choices and a wealth of practical, up-to-date real-world examples." David Maister "There isn't a professional services leader who will not recognise the challenges in this book. Martin and James have defined a pragmatic way forward based on intellectual rigor combined with practical orien¬tation." Neil McArthur, Managing Director, Europe, Booz & Company "A must read for every managing partner (or leader in a professional services firm) who is willing to deal with the hard questions on 'Monday Morning'." Sander van't Noordeinde, Group Chief Executive - Resources, Accenture "This fascinating book makes many things look so obvious after reading it that one wonders why they perhaps weren't so beforehand! The leopard metaphor is very appealing, and the concept of symmetry is of key importance to the insights that the authors bring." Richard Batty, Managing Director, Towers Perrin "For those interested to understand how successful firms have focused their efforts this book offers a lot of valuable insights." Sietze Hepkema, Partner, Allen & Overy LLP "This book is a valuable and encouraging tool for leaders of professional service firms. It combines deep analysis of today's challenges with practical guidelines to find and implement individual solutions." Konstantin Graf Lambsdorff, Partner, Taylor Wessing LLP "Professional Services have rapidly become a vital part of our worldwide economy. This work is of great importance to everyone who is concerned with the future of the professional firm. Fifty years of consult¬ing experience deliver ideas that make you want to reflect and act."
