Includes Advance Praise; Author Dedication; Foreword by Martin Lipton, Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz; Acknowledgments; About the Author and Index. Signed, inscribed and dated (Dec. 7, 2021) by the author, Eric Gleacher, with thin black Sharpie on the blank first free front endpaper. "Eric, my first boss, has written his story that centers on working hard and winning -- the lessons that I first got from him at Morgan Stanley as a first-year associate are ones that I rely upon today." -- Ruth Porat, SVP & Chief Financial Officer, Alphabet and Google. "Eric Gleacher's memoir reads like a thrilling adventure story -- full of perils and successes. It is engagingly written and contains valuable lessons about business, philanthropy, and life. Readers are in for an unusual treat!" -- Morton Schapiro, Professor and President, Northwestern University. "In his new book, Eric Gleacher tells fascinating behind-the-scenes stories and shares his views about leadership and the value of philanthropy. Filled with entertaining and engaging stories about life in the Marines, mergers and acquisition, and sports, Risk. Reward. Repeat. encourages people to take risks, reminds them to remember those who help along the way, and provides guidance for living an enriching and fulfilling life." -- Robert J. Zimmer, President, University of Chicago. "There are no shortcuts in life to success. Reading Eric's memoir takes you on a wild journey showing what it takes to be successful in the world of business. A fascinating read where the qualities of honesty, hard work, and the importance of winning shine through." -- Luke Donald, PGA Tour Player and Former Number One Ranked Golfer in the World for Fifty-Six Weeks. "RISK: success requires risk -- risk that stands firmly on the platform of integrity. REWARD: integrity inspires reward -- generosity toward those who helped you succeed. REPEAT: generosity fuels repetition -- helping others to forge their own way forward. These are the lifelong tenets of Eric Gleacher, the Marine Corps officer and investment banker who, along with a handful of others, dominated the Mergers & Acquisitions industry in the latter half of the twentieth century and transformed the face of American business. Risk. Reward. Repaet. chronicles his compelling journey: from a profoundly isolated childhood to the hardcore leadership lessons of the Marine Corps, to Lehman Brothers and Morgan Stanley, to his own firm, going toe-to-toe with the giants of Wall Street, Gleacher's book puts today's culture of hype, tricks, and life-hacks to shame with its simple, timeless formula: be yourself, tell the truth, lead by example, do your best, own your mistakes, work hard, take risks, earn your success, and pay it forward." -- from the inner front jacket flap.…

Store description
Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
