Résumé
In concise, no-nonsense memos, the CEOs of many of the
nation's leading corporations give the incoming chief
executive the benefit of their considerable experience,
well-founded opinions, and hard-won wisdom on management
and leadership issues that affect the operation of every
corner of the federal government. Leaving policy to the
politicians, they focus on proven management techniques
from the private sector, telling the president what he
needs to know about leveraging technology, managing and
developing people, fostering ethics, managing change, and
more.
Edward Ludwig of Becton Dickinson and Company helps the new
president take advantage of the post-inauguration
"honeymoon" to alter an organization's strategic direction;
James Forese of IKON Office Solutions submits a five-step
plan for improving organizations; and J. W. Marriott Jr. of
Marriott International stresses the importance of finding
the right people and encouraging their spirit to serve. The
CEOs of UPS, Heinz, WellPoint, Home Depot, Guardian Life
Insurance, and many other leading corporations weigh in on
such critical topics as setting a vision, strategic
direction, and customer service, among others.
Read along as these world-class managers impart insights
and methods on a range of cutting-edge management topics
that they would only share with the President of the United
States. Whether you're a business manager eager for
authoritative advice; a citizen concerned with how the
government operates; or a student interested in political
science, public administration, or management, you'll find
fascinating, enlightening, and instructive reading in Memos
to the President.
