Review: One of the better business books - Working in a technology business certainly made this book very relevant. However, even if you don't, this contains quite a number of useful aspects for managers and business owners alike. Reflecting on this book made me realise just how badly managed all of my previous UK employers actually were. Reading Grove's approach to management made it clear why: in addition to those at the top not setting relevant targets, I don't think many of my managers actually had any training in management. I suspect that this is an endemic problem in UK business, so, if you're a British manager, read this book!
Review: I love the title - Only the Paranoid Survive - The strategies and decisions, and luck, Intel embraced are remarkable and to cover them all in detail in a short book would have been impossible. The fundamental essence of this book is that the only constant we can expect in business is CHANGE. How do we anticipate it? How do we prepare for that inflection point? The ones we sometimes see coming and the ones we don’t. We need to recognise what’s happening and respond appropriately and with commitment. The book is written with the flow of a story, which helps it resonate well. It also reminds us that many decisions involve agonising analysis and reasoning, and are extremely personal. The book is full of Groves’ war stories which are really interesting and relevant as we lived through many of these events. A good point that I remember from the book is when Andrew Grove recollects his darkest moment when he realised that not only were the Japanese cheaper in manufacturing memory chips, but their quality levels were at levels that Intel didn’t even think possible. Intel’s move away from memory to microprocessors was traumatic and the inflection “point” was not so much a point as a long drawn out and painful affair. The backdrop to that inflection point and others make the book a great learning experience.
