Misleading Title

Although this is a somewhat interesting listen, I take two exceptions to this book. Firstly, it is hardly about business ethics at all, but actually about devout christians who "honour the lord" through their work. The second part, is that the interview subjects are not leaders at all, but are people that I have never heard of. Some of the interview subjects aren't even winners - they are people who are ex-bankrupts and convicted felons.

What I did see as a recurring theme is that the interview subjects came from a a very small geographic area, and all speak about their love of god. This should really be in the religion section with an appropriate title!

If you really want to hear and learn about Business Ethics, try Fred Kofmans e-book - also available on audible. Its 50 times better value, both in cost and educational value.

Religous studeis not ethics

This book does not cover business ethics.

Within the first few words the truth is revealed - this is a book about people who chose to live the way Jesus taught.

not abut ethics, more about religion.

Would you try another book from Ken Blanchard and/or Ken Blanchard?

yes

What was most disappointing about Ken Blanchards story?

It wasn't Ken's story.

How could the performance have been better?

talk about business ethics not religion.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

disappointment

Any additional comments?

I'd like my money back on this one

Great, thoughtful book

Such a great, thought provoking, and well researched book. Great advice and items to implement in a well organized way. Some minor audio issues, but overall great narration too.

Publisher's Summary:

For John Chambers, Chief Executive of Cisco Systems, Inc., it is important to take the long view. "We've always made decisions based on what we think is best for our employees and shareholders and the company in the long run, and not on the short-run gyrations in the stock market."

Juergen Schrempp is Chairman and CEO of DaimlerChrysler AG, a result of a 1999 merger of Daimler-Benz AG with Chrysler Corp. He credits the smooth transaction to honesty and speed. "It's much better to move fast and make mistakes occasionally than to move too slowly. The resistance to change once they feel comfortable again is so much greater than if you change during the time that they expect changes anyway."

Beginning in 1960 as a cofounder of the investment bank Carter, Berlind & Weill, and ending in 1998 with the most recent merger of Traveler's Group and Citibank to create Citigroup Inc., Sanford I. Weill, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive of Citigroup Inc., is no stranger to the world of business mergers. In his lifetime of deal-making, he has found that quick decision making and interest in employees is essential to managing growth. "When you slow down that decision-making process, such as who's going to do what, the good people usually end up leaving, and you end up with a lot of mediocre performers."

Dr. Daniel Vasella, Chairman and Executive of Novartis AG, has created many changes in the pharmaceutical company since its creation. Dr. Vasella has transformed the company into a thriving and innovative force in the drug industry. He credits Novartis' awakening and success to the innovative spirit of people within the company. "The single most important thing is having the right people. Smart and intelligent is one thing, but it is also having people who are willing to cooperate in an organization to make it work."

Not an audio version of the book

I thought I was buying the audio version of the book. It was misleading because it shows the book and gives the audible version option, but once it's downloaded, it is only 53 minutes of a lecture given by the author on the subject in 1986.

Publisher: Forbes

Genres: Business, Commerce & Economy

Publisher's Summary:

In the cover story, we'll tell you about, "Hewlett-Packard's Mark Hurd: He Wants It All" - The plan to win the battle of the tech titans.

Also, "The Mac Hacker Strikes Again" - Charlie Miller has a habit of publicly upending Apple's security claims. Real cyberspies may be doing the same thing in private.

Next, "Wrap Account Ripoff" - Fee-based brokerage accounts are supposed to be a financial boon to investors. A financial boon to brokers is more like it.

Then, "Is Tony Stewart Nascar's Smartest Owner?" He's not Nascar's most liked driver. But he might be its smartest owner.

Followed by, "Why are Big Hedge Funds Investing with Tom Kaplan?" Some big-shot hedge fund managers are following Tom Kaplan's charge into gold assets. Who's Tom Kaplan?

We'll also tell you about, "The Identity Thief Killer" - Hector Hoyos' iris scanners could wipe out identify theft.

And in our final story, "Detroit's Long Road" - The U.S. auto industry isn't dead, but it isn't back, either. Americans still disdain Detroit's cars. They'd rather have a Camry than a Malibu.

Promises more than it delivers

This book might be useful as an introduction to growth hacking but lacks depth. Also the "six-figure" in the headline is just marketing.

There are continual references to "building your portfolio" but no real imformation about how to actually create one.

This book just grazes the subject and reading a couple of blog posts on the subject would result in the same gain in knowledge, I would even argue that blog posts give more actionable insight.
