Nur wenige Monate nach seinem Amtsantritt als CEO hatte Gordon Bethune einen enormen Erfolg zu verzeichnen: Nie zuvor war die Arbeitsmoral besser, und das Unternehmen war auf dem besten Weg zu rekordverdächtigen Umsätzen und Gewinnen. In diesem Buch erzählt Bethune, wie er und sein Team das wohl dramatischste Comeback in der Unternehmensgeschichte in die Wege geleitet haben. Er zeigt, wie Manager mit gesundem Menschenverstand und dem Mut, Gewinndenken einmal beiseite zu lassen, selbst die verbittertsten Angestellten wieder motivieren und zu neuen Qualitätsma stäben anspornen können. Ein lehrreiches Buch, das für Manager in allen Branchen wertvolle und nützliche Lektionen bereit hält. (09/99)

    1st edition, 2nd impression edition of "The Drunken Forest," by Gerald Durrell is as pictured & described. Arrived quickly & safely! Got a great deal on it! Great communication! The book, with a protective mylar cover, was wrapped in bubble wrap, then wrapped in sturdy cardboard, then placed in a rugged bubble mailer! Fort Knox in a mailer! So hard to get an early edition of this classic! So happy to add to my growing collection of nature & science books! Thank you! !!Seller Highly Recommended!!

    Sent message to seller when tracking number for UPS was showing tracking # invalid. Seller responded but didn’t answer my questions specifically. Only that item was sent which wasn’t helpful at the time but I waited. Package arrived in mail - delivered by USPS not UPS. No worries. Besides that… A+ seller. Good price. Good quality.
