The goal of this book is to train the next generation of financial management and consulting professionals, whose decisions will significantly impact cost structures and organizational performance. The book is highly pedagogical, reinforcing learning objectives in all chapters through five key elements: "Cost Management Focus," "Real Company Context," "Decision Focus," "Best Cost Management Practices," and "Reliable Research Findings." This helps students truly understand and master the work of cost management—creating more value with lower costs.
