A Savage Factory


Book Description

A Savage Factory is a true memoir straight from the factory floor of an automotive giant losing the global auto war to smaller, weaker, less experienced foreign competitors that beat us at our own game on our own turf. It gives an inside look, up close, at incompetent management at war with the labor force that created a quality nightmare and caused the car buying public to lose trust and faith in American cars. It is a true story of the inner workings of Ford's largest automatic transmission plant: the people, the machines, and the never ending war between management and labor that produced low quality cars that opened the door for foreign competitors to come to our country and take our auto market. It gives real life examples of the battlefield like conditions in the auto plants that caused alcoholism, drug addition, sexual harassment, and family breakdown, while producing transmissions that received the largest recall in automotive history and would have caused Ford Motor Company to go bankrupt had the Federal Government not intervened.




Marketing Savage


Book Description

You may be thinking, "OK, what makes a Marketing Savage so different?" Although you'll need to read the entire book to fully understand the possibilities behind the formula, I will give you an overview of what you're getting into. I feel like we're about to enter the matrix together and you're being asked if you want the red or the blue pill. At this point, you can go back to your normal existence getting the same results and living the same life, or you can dig deeper into these pages and challenge everything you've ever been taught. This is where I'll warn you, some of my methods are extremely unconventional, you've never consumed anything exactly like I'm about to teach you. I'm going to challenge your worldview and suggest changes that will radically alter your perception of everything. I'll say this again, this is not another book on marketing, this is a way of life. I will not dumb down teachings, and trust me you'll likely want to consume this knowledge over and over again, so these principles sink in. I've studied hundreds of books on marketing, and I feel the critical path to success has purposely been left out. Most books on marketing are mainly surface level, meant to be consumed by a 5th grader. I understand why it's been so simplified; everyone needs to start with training wheels, but that is not this book. Unfortunately, it is a lot harder to find information on how to get rid of the training wheels and move onto a more advanced level of marketing, so I'm giving you that here. On my journey to find something more, I had to draw this knowledge I'm about to teach you from deep inside my own soul. You will walk with a different set of rules, you'll enter into a new kingdom. My friends, this is not about how I would change the world, but the way you will change the world. What I'm going to teach you is not about becoming good, it's about becoming great.

A Savage Order


Book Description

The most violent places in the world today are not at war. They are instead buckling under a maelstrom of gangs, organized crime, political conflict, corruption, and state brutality. Such devastating violence can feel hopeless, yet some places—from Colombia to the Republic of Georgia—have been able to recover. Taking on existing literature and popular theories about war, crime, and foreign intervention, A Savage Order is a blistering yet inspiring investigation into what makes some countries peaceful and others war zones, and a blueprint for what we can do to help. Drawing on fifteen years of study and firsthand field research—interviewing generals, former guerrillas, activists, politicians, and law enforcement in countries around the world—Rachel Kleinfeld tells the stories of societies, including our own, that successfully fought seemingly ingrained violence and offers penetrating conclusions about what must be done to build governments that are able to protect the lives of their citizens.
