Put the Moose on the Table

Description

"Put the Moose on the Table is an effort to capture the lessons learned by one man over the course of a life and a career in the corporate world. It's about his experiences and the lessons in leadership he learned during a time of unprecedented change in the world of American business. It's about beliefs reinforced, such as the importance of values and character, and about things learned the hard way, especially while managing change in the absence of a clear and compelling strategic vision.". "Put the Moose on the Table is a personal story as well, with some tragic dimensions. But most of all, it is an enlightening and hopeful book about succeeding without selling out, turning change to advantage, and confronting difficult issues, told from the point of view of a man who has played a significant role in two of the major corporate transformations of our time."--BOOK JACKET.
