 James Hoopes

0-313-34784-0/978-0-313-34784-9

Description
Hail to the CEO—a breakthrough book on leadership, business ethics, and the place of George W. Bush in the history of our time—explains how Bush's failed presidency reflects not just on him but on the business culture that created him.

Reviews:
-Hoopes, a Babson professor, takes the position that the prevailing cult of moral leadership is at least partially to blame for Bush's mistakes....Harvard's 1970s b-school curriculum would have emphasized a CEO's duty to lead through moral influence, Hoopes believes....Hoopes spends the rest of the book addressing those questions--though many of his readers will already have strong opinions about the answers. —BizEd
-In this short of tightly argued work, Hoopes presents a clear thesis: George W. Bush has misunderstood and misused his moral authority as president....Hoopes argues that a misguided moral superiority animates decision making in the Bush White House, blinding them to the perils of abusing power....Highly recommended. General readers and all undergraduates. —Choice
