Rise of the Rogue Executive高层欺诈的风险:好公司如何变坏及其防止 pdf mobi txt word epub 下载 2024

“Sayles and Smith have covered all the bases with a comprehensive，yet fascinating，analysis of what has been ailing our capital market system.A system that has given us such high standards of living.A recommended read for those who not only want to understand what is going on in the corporate world，but why it is going on.Congratulations.”

“This book confronts，head-on，the problems that have beset American，and world，business over the last decade.The authors boldly go to the heart of the problem；to a business culture that has lost sight of fundamentals in pursuit of the illusions of rapid growth and personal gain.This is a call for action，by CEOs，boards of directors，investors，regulators，and the public at large，everyone with a stake in our business system.Anyone worried about the future of American business and American corporate culture should read this book.”

“The authors have provided a‘must read’autopsy of just about all that's wrong with American business today.It is a‘must read’for investors interested in why we are where we are.”

“Sayles and Smith make a compelling case that rogue business executives received a lot of help from others: economists，business schools，apologists，a compliant Congress，under funded regulatory agencies，a gullible press，as well as sleazy professional auditors and accountants—all of which contributed to the great market crash of 2000 and the persistent corporate scandals.Seeking unprecedented individual gains，many members of the business community forgot their commitment to personal integrity，which maintains an essential trust among strangers，which binds all members in the larger society.”

“We can pretend that we live in a progressive society and are protected as citizens and investors，or we can read the evidence in Sayles’and Smith's book and start to face reality.This book is a strong reminder of the breadth and depth of white collar crime and greed's piercing and pervasive impact on all of us.”

书籍介绍

Financial scandals aren't unknown in US business history, but today's growing problem of executive excesses and self serving behavior is unprecedented in both its persistence and pervasiveness. Executives continue to plunder their companies and rip off their stockholders. This book reveals the true breadth and depth of corporate corruption including flagrant new cases that haven't received the publicity they deserve. Sayles is one the world's most honored management experts. As in-house corporate anthropologist at Arthur Andersen, Smith had a unique vantage point on the cultural changes that led to Andersen's collapse. Together, they identify powerful forces that cut across management, finance, the economy, politics, even psychology. Along the way, they identify rarely-discussed contributing factors such as the consulting boom, new technologies used by accounting and auditing professionals, the transformation of b-schools, journalism, and the media in general. This book addresses both criminal activity and the not-quite-illegal abuses that are now endemic in the executive suite, abuses that challenge the underpinnings of capitalism. Its deep insights will help both leaders and citizens understand exactly what's happened and what is needed to stem the tide of destructive behavior.
