It is easy to be overwhelmed by the sheer volume of business books flooding the market today. Even more daunting is the task of weeding through them to find the "golden nugget" of wisdom inside. In Aesop and the CEO, David Noonan has simplified the process by providing this well-researched primer of the most essential advice from the greatest business books ever written. Further, in a clever melding of modern business sense and ancient wisdom, he has used the animal-based stories of Aesop as springboards to launch these 50 lessons. Both entertaining and informative, Aesop and the CEO includes advice from well-known leaders such as Bill Gates, Sam Walton, Donald Trump, and Lee Iacocca. The short, easy-to-read vignettes cover every aspect of corporate life: negotiations, hiring and firing, mergers and acquisitions, marketing and sales, and day-to-day management.

David Noonan believes it's time for a return to the time-tested maxims of yesteryear. Inside, he offers a fresh perspective on the universal truths embedded in Aesop's compact morality plays, including: Slow and steady wins the race. The overeager make bad decisions. It is wise to prepare today for the needs of tomorrow. No good deed, however small, is ever wasted. Using the experiences and writings of well-known industry and government notables, Aesop and the CEO illustrates powerful business insights-lessons of both success and failure-and draws a business moral from each. The world of business has changed enormously since Aesop's time, but people haven't. As the corporate culture cries out for strong, ethical leadership, this book confirms that integrity, reliability, honesty, and respect continue to be as essential to a business's long-term survival as is the bottom line.
