Includes Dedication; Preface; Acknowledgments; Appendix A: America's Economic/Business Leadership Failures: 1965… to the Present; Appendix B: Repaying America's Debt: Staffing the National Service Corps: 2010 to 2030; Appendix C: Meeting America's Growing Power Demands; Notes; Bibliography; Index and About the Author. "America is broke, and only real business leadership can fix it. Now is a time of big problems for America. With a mountain of debt and trillions more in unfunded obligations, by most accounting standards we are already insolvent. Alongside potential financial bankruptcy, a bankruptcy of values has left us ethically rudderless, threatening the effectiveness of our response. These are indeed big problems, and it will take big ideas and, most of all, a big dose of leadership to solve them. Pulling no punches, Broke looks America's toughest issues square in the face and doesn't flinch in singling out who's chiefly responsible: us. Whether or not we wanted them, business leaders now own these problems, argues renowned business turnaround expert and veteran Army officer John Mumford. And only by being truly accountable leaders can we pull both America and our own businesses back from the brink. A 360-degree vision of a national turnaround, Broke describes America's most daunting challenges in clear, nonpartisan terms, relying on keen, factual analysis and a long view of history. This stirring call to renewal also gives leaders of both large and small enterprises a blueprint with measurable steps to protect and enhance their businesses while helping the country flourish. Learn how your entrepreneurial know-how can help America with powerful guidance on: Applying business leadership principles to the political process; Promoting financial stability by avoiding recent hazards such as liquidity traps, as well as such looming dangers as inflation; Bringing your business's strengths to bear in unexpected areas such as foreign relations and anti-terror efforts; Managing vital resources and encouraging sane environmental policies with innovative energy, water, and pollution solutions; Exemplifying a new ethic of accountable leadership. Filled with practical action steps, goals, takeaway points, and results measures, Broke is a no-nonsense guide for any leader ready to roll up their sleeves and do what it takes for a better business and a better America." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: John B. Mumford is the founder of The Washington Group Consultants, LLC, which works with both Fortune 500 companies and nonprofits on all phases of strategic and operations management. A graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, he served two tours of duty in Vietnam as an officer in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. After his service, he obtained an MBA from Harvard Business School. With nearly four decades' experience in the military, government, and business, he is also a sought-after speaker on leadership, values, and business ethics.

Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good Minus. Reprint. This Literary Guild of America reprint edition was published in the same year as the 1st Edition. This copy is almost 100 years old, has been well taken care of and is in fine condition. Its construction is unlike most of the poorly made book club e…ditions. The buckram covered boards, high quality paper and matching top stain add up to a handsome edition possibly as desirable and rare as the first edition. The text block is solid, clean and square. Pictorial endpapers are clear of markings with small previous owner's bookplate under front flap. Spine tight, boards rigid and tips pointed. Slight push to spine ends. There is no book club deboss on the rear cover. The jacket is in very good minus condition and has some closed tearing along backstrip seams and chipping/loss at spine ends and some edges. It looks sleek in a shiny new plastic cover. Shipping box is suitable for wrapping with a non-price listed purchase order inside along with biodegradable packing.

Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Xlvii, 431 Pp. Beige Cloth. Stated First Printing. Excellent Compilation Of Liberal Articles From The 1930'S. Near Fine, No Marks. Dj Lightly Used, Price Clipped, Shallow 1 1/2" X 1/4" Chip At Bottom Of Rear Pane, Still Near Fine. Per Wikipedia,…Stuart Chase (1888 - 1985) Was An American Economist, Social Theorist, And Writer. His Writings Covered Topics As Diverse As General Semantics And Physical Economy. His Thought Was Shaped By Henry George (1839-1897), By Economic Philosopher Thorstein Veblen (1857-1929), By Fabian Socialism, And Briefly By The Communist Social And Educational Experiments In The Soviet Union To Around 1930, Though Chase Was Broadly A Modern American Liberal. Chase Spent His Early Political Career Supporting "A Wide Range Of Reform Causes: The Single Tax, Women's Suffrage, Birth Control And Socialism." Chase's Early Books, The Tragedy Of Waste (1925) And Your Money's Worth (1927), Were Notable For Their Criticism Of Corporate Advertising And Their Advocacy Of Consumer Protection. In 1929 Chase Co-Founded Consumers' Research, A Consumer Protection Advocacy Organization. In 1932, Chase Wrote A New Deal, Which Became Identified With The Economic Programs Of American President Franklin Roosevelt. He Also Wrote A Cover Story In The New Republic, "A New Deal For America", Which Appeared Days Before Roosevelt Promised "A New Deal" In His Speech Accepting The Presidential Nomination Of The Democratic Party. Whether Roosevelt Speechwriter Samuel Rosenman Got The Phrase From Chase Is Unknown. Chase's 1938 Book The Tyranny Of Words Was An Early And Influential Popularization Of Alfred Korzybski's Theory Of General Semantics.
