It gives hard-hitting, practical, ethical strategies that build profits, productivity, and long-term success.

These can be put to work right away to enhance the performance of your business and to enrich the quality of your life.

"So Vince Lombardi was wrong. Winning is not the only thing as headlines and hearings from Wall Street to Washington confirm. Now comes a better game plan from the powerful one-two punch of Ken Blanchard and Norman Vincent Peale in a quickreading new book, The Power of Ethical Management.
