Built To Last, the defining management study of the 90s, showed how great companies triumph over time and how long-term sustained performance can be engineered into the DNA of an enterprise from the very beginning. But what about companies that are not born with great DNA? How can good companies, mediocre companies, even bad companies achieve enduring greatness?

ok book but follows intuition
Revisado: 09-28-20
the book was alright, but most of the concepts followed my intuition and the structure seemed a little self reinforced.

George Orwell depicts a gray, totalitarian world dominated by Big Brother and its vast network of agents, including the Thought Police - a world in which news is manufactured according to the authorities' will and people live tepid lives by rote. Winston Smith, a hero with no heroic qualities, longs only for truth and decency. But living in a social system in which privacy does not exist and where those with unorthodox ideas are brainwashed or put to death, he knows there is no hope for him.

Admits current times in 2020, this is highly reliant while also very entertaining! Gives one a good look at authorization government and when speach or thoughts become, not ok or "immoral", wrong etc.

The critically acclaimed novelist and social critic Aldous Huxley, describes his personal experimentation with the drug mescaline and explores the nature of visionary experience. The title of this classic comes from William Blake's The Marriage of Heaven and Hell: "If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern."

Historia4 out of 5 stars 12
John D. Rockefeller (1839-1937) founded the Standard Oil Company, revolutionized the oil business and, after adjusting for inflation, may have been the richest person in world history. Rockefeller's business practices were fiercely condemned, but he and Standard Oil had a policy of not responding to the attacks of critics. Random Reminiscences of Men and Events (1909) is in part a personal memoir, in part a response to his critics, and in part a book of advice on making money and philanthropy.

What disappointed you about Random Reminiscences of Men and Events?
Story, or any good stories in general.

Write more about how he got where he was, more personal stories.
What didn’t you like about Christopher Crennen’s performance?
Nothing.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Random Reminiscences of Men and Events?
The part where John recounts his interaction with this widow that feels she was unjustly robbed in a sale. John, attempts (and succeeds) at showing HE was in the right.
Any additional comments?
Very short.
