A Business Tale: A Story of Ethics, Choices, Success and a Very Large Rabbit

Rating:
Summary: Excellent, excellent
Review: I absolutely love the new book on ethics by Marianne M. Jennings. She uses a parody to follow four students through their life from high school to middle age. One student, Edgar, has a big rabbit as his conscience. The rabbit appears whenever Edgar faces an ethical dilemma. Edgar repeatedly struggles through life as he sees his three friends achieve major financial gains by being unethical. Ms. Jennings does a wonderful job of illustrating the long-term benefits of running one's personal and business decisions through an ethical filter prior to action. This book should be mandatory reading for all college students.

Summary: Must read for anyone in business
Review: I have a unique relationship with the author. While I was an MBA student at Arizona State, she was my teacher. Now, I'm her literary agent. Not only is Jennings the nation's leading authority on ethics, but she's an incredible writer who will make you think and make you laugh. The book is a fable--in the spirit of WHO MOVED MY CHEESE and THE ONE MINUTE MANAGER--that you'll be able to read in one sitting, yet the lessons will last for a lifetime. If you own a company, this is a book you should buy for all your employees.

Summary: Great Book!
Review: Sometimes we forget that in order to succeed we need to pay attention to little things such as ethics. This book really is an eye opener... I agree, it should be mandatory for every student in America.
