Value Creation Thinking by Bartley J Madden

Value Creation Thinking by Bartley J Madden

In a world where short-term thinking has taken hold for too many managers and investors, Value Creation Thinking provides a much needed perspective on the key drivers of long-term value.

Madden unites the fundamentals of financial valuation with a unique emphasis on corporate purpose, culture, and knowledge. Based on decades of research and practice, Value Creation Thinking sheds light on enduring sources of competitive advantage and exposes how traditional business thinking and accounting practices often distract managers and investors from sustained performance.

By speaking the language of both shareholders and stakeholders, Madden provides an important contribution to our understanding of capitalism at a critical moment, and an illuminating roadmap for the future of business.

-- Dominic Barton, Global Managing Director, McKinsey & Co.

Bartley J. Madden retired as a Managing Director of Credit Suisse/HOLT after a career in money management and investment research that included the founding of Callard Madden & Associates. His early research led to the development of the CFROI valuation framework that is used today by money management firms worldwide.

Madden's current research focuses on knowledge building and wealth creation as opposite sides of the same coin. The YouTube video Reconstructing Your Worldview provides insights about the four core beliefs central to this book and their application to solving complex problems. His view on the role of capitalism in making the world a better place is the subject of a forthcoming book and presented in the YouTube video Capitalism and Management's Core Responsibilities. Additionally, his work in finance and systems thinking is summarized in his book, Wealth Creation: A Systems Mindset for Building and Investing in Businesses for the Long Term.

Madden's proposal to restructure the Food and Drug Administration is presented in his book, Free To Choose Medicine: Better Drugs Sooner at Lower Cost, which was developed in journal articles in Regulation, Cancer Biotherapy & Radiopharmaceuticals, and Medical Hypotheses. At the present time, the core Free To Choose Medicine principles of consumer choice and competition for the FDA are being implemented by various state governments via Right To Try legislation that is designed to enable patients, fighting life-threatening illnesses, to access not-yet-approved drugs.
