Solid Saga about GM's First Transformational Leader,
This review is from: The Leadership Genius of Alfred P. Sloan: Invaluable Lessons on Business, Management, and Leadership for Today's Manager (Hardcover)
Alfred P. Sloan's achievements during his 42-year career at General Motors went far beyond manufacturing and selling popular cars. He built GM into a world-changing corporation and reshaped American management by using critical thinking and democratic principles. Author Allyn Freeman puts Sloan into his proper historical and corporate context, showing how bold and innovative his management style was for its time. Freeman builds the book around Sloan, but weaves in modern examples that explain how other businesses have applied Sloan's practices. While these examples are interesting, they sometimes distract from Sloan's unusual and powerful story. We highly recommend this book to managers and business strategists looking for techniques and guidance from one of America's greatest corporate leaders. It's also good reading for people who are interested in corporate history. This is an exceptional book about an exceptional man.
