A Strategic Approach to Overhead Management [Archive.org URL]

The average company spends 23 cents out of every dollar of revenue on overhead, yet most firms lack a plan or system for managing the spending for greater value.

Companies that get off the roller coaster will discover not only that financial markets rewards better overhead management, but also that changing the very way they view and manage overhead can significantly increase the return they get for every dollar invested in it
