Rezensionen

"Beer, author of High Commitment, High Performance , a book on business ethics recently published by Josey-Bass, posited three core reasons why Wall Street failed so badly in the fall of 2008: The firms lacked a higher purpose, lacked a clear strategy, and mismanaged their risk." ( Business Week , August 17, 2009)
