By A Customer

This review is from: The Mission Statement Book (Kirsty Melville Bk) (Paperback)

Setting our mission statement had our company had us knocking heads until we picked up Mr. Abrahams' book. "Mission Statement Book; 301 Corporate Mission Statements from America's Top Companies" is a must for any dot.com company.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Reference, January 13, 2000

By	M. Schwartz (New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is a very helpful brain-storming tool. You're making work for yourself if you write a mission statement without consulting it.
