Customer Reviews

Excellent review of why FedEx is a powerhouse

I began reading this as research for my Strategic Planning class and found it to be an enjoyable, easy to read synopsis of how FedEx successfully incorporated its values internally and externally. A must for HR professionals and others interested in the breadth of management fundamentals at FedEx.

From Outside In

This book takes a look inside the always exciting and fast paced culture of FedEx Express from an outsiders point of view. The book explains the policies that FedEx used to chage the shipping industry and policies that FedEx still uses today. This book is not writtin by a FedEx Express Employee or former employee. Interesting reading for any FedEx Express Employee or any Person(s) who are in the frieght industry.

Neat insights into an impressive 'machine'

A wonderful look-behind-the-scenes. This breezy account of FedEx's idiosyncracies heightened my respect for this market leading firm.
