Customer Reviews

A lost gem of a book.

This is a rare (and cheap) bio of the builder of one of the legendary conglomerates. Packed with detail, this tome could be very useful to a young student of business or a first year stock analyst. Geneen took risks and made deals that would make the heads of today's Fortune 500 companies blush and or run to clutch the skirts of one of their legion of corporate counsel. This is a snapshot of an era, but full of lessons for today's legalistic corporate environment as well.
