Many companies are facing the challenge of adapting their business models to new market conditions. Regulatory requirements, geopolitical uncertainties, and rising cost pressures call for clear strategies, effective implementation, and control. This new publication shows how controlling and management can work together to successfully shape transformations and turnarounds—from early detection and the concept phase to implementation.
