Ford and the American Dream: Founded On Right Decisions 6 reviews
Clifton Lambreth
Executive Books, 2007
A Must Read! Lambreth created a fictionalized account of Ford's history and path for recovery.
Clifton Lambreth has written an insiders view of Ford Motor Company and the mis-steps that have landed them where they are today. He explains a complex business model of a mega corporation using fictionalized characters. (I have to believe one of them is actually a character of himself.) It's an easy read that I would recommend for anyone interested in Ford, the auto industry or American ...

A Message to Garcia (Life-Changing Classics) 37 reviews
Elbert Hubbard
Executive Books, 2002
Simple Message - make it happen
This book is a classic. When I reported to my first assignment as a young Army officer, my company commander had me read this book. I am glad that he did. It is short and to the point. The message of "make it happen" really resonated with me then, and it still does.
I recently purchased the book and am having my colleagues at work read it. Most had never heard of it, and appreciated the ...

I'm No Hero: A POW Story as Told to Glen DeWerff1 review
Charlie Plumb
Executive Books, 1995
An excellent account of life with POW backdrop.
One of the few books by a Vietnam War POW written very shortly after the war. A view into history that has not been colored by outside influences. It leaves you with little doubt about the truly patriotic nature of the men who were fighting in the war and how they felt about their captors and those that would defend the North Vietnamese. It is an inspirational life story that uses the author's ...

Nonprofit Fundraisers Need to Read "Ask Without Fear"

Jim Stovall
Executive Books, 2000
More than a novel!
Everyone got a piece of the pie when Red Stevens died- a portion of his multibillion dollar estate- except for Jason, the 24 year old fictional character in Jim Stovall's "the Ultimate Gift". Born with a silver spoon and never having worked a day in his life, Jason was eager to find out what he would inherit from his late great uncle. You could imagine how disturbed he was when he learned he had ...

Bill Bartmann

Missing Chapter!
This Bill Bartmann book is awesome! ...if only it was complete.
In the Preface you are given a synopsis of Chapter 5, however there is no Chapter 5 in the book.
I believe the hardback version is complete. I am waiting to find out for myself.

A Personal & Professional Development Classic!
I first read this book in the late 80's. It became a favorite. I've started rereading it...something I rarely do for any book. The ideas are simple, yet profound. Nothing gimmicky or hokey here...just sound advice from a highly successful person. I think so much of the book I've bought a box full to give as gifts to clients and friends.

Speaking Secrets of the Masters: The Personal Techniques Used by 22 of the Worlds' Top Professional Speakers2 reviews
Speakers Roundtable
Executive Books, 1995
"Secrets" No Longer
The title of this book could just as easily have been Presentation Skills of the Masters because few of us in business are called upon to give formal speeches but most of us frequently make all manner of presentations such as proposals, reports, briefings, and updates to individuals as well as to groups. Have you ever stood up to speak to an audience, even a friendly one, and "died"? It's a ...
