Sarah Manguso - 2017-02-07
Рейтинг Goodreads
A stunning collection of aphorisms from acclaimed essayist Sarah Manguso, covering topics such as grief, bad art, happiness, and gratitude. Manguso's compression of words offers remarkable insight into our psychological and spiritual state. Despite appearing as unrelated, the grouping of pieces forms a powerful and masterful arrangement that challenges traditional wisdom literature.

От хорошего к великому
Why Some Companies Make The Leap and Others Don't
Jim Collins - 2001-10-16
Рейтинг Goodreads
В книге анализируется опыт компаний, осуществивших переход от хороших показателей к выдающимся, таких как: Abbott, Circuit City, Fannie Mae, Gillette, Kimberly-Clark, Kroger, Nucor, Philip Morris, Pitney Bowes, Walgreens, Wells Fargo. Эти компании сохраняли высокие результаты в течение 15 лет. Так, к 2000 г. инвестиции в $1, сделанные в 1965 г. в эти компании, увеличились бы в 471 раз, а инвестиции в акции всех компаний на рынке увеличились бы лишь в 56 раз. Исследовательская команда во главе с Джимом Коллинзом рассматривает факторы и условия, необходимые для перехода «от хорошего к великому», и его механизмы. Авторы убеждены, что последовательное претворение в жизнь идей и концепций, изложенных в книге, поможет практически любой организации кардинальным образом улучшить свою деятельность и добиться по-настоящему выдающихся результатов.

Very meaningful to me, not only because it’s the story of the founding of the Home Depot, but also because of my start as the CEO of Home Depot.      источник
