Book Synopsis

Rejecting the notion that business strategy should be geared towards the greatest short-term profit and shareholder value, the authors (both of the School of Business and Entrepreneurship at Nova Southeastern U.) present a philosophy of management that integrates eight "value drivers" (external cultural, internal cultural, employee, supplier, customer, third-party, competitor, and owner values) for long-term sustainable success.
