Outsourcing the American Dream: Pain and Pleasure in the Era of Downsizing

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Outsourcing the American Dream addresses an interesting paradox: in a time of unprecedented prosperity, why have millions of Americans lost faith in their ability to prosper? Why do millions of Americans fail to achieve financial abundance in a nation where unlimited economic opportunity abounds?

Numerous corporations have indiscriminately cut layers of management and technical expertise to reduce corporate costs, strengthen share price, ortake advantage of technological advances. In Outsourcing the American Dream, the author argues the number one reason for all business failures in America is the lack of bold, decisive, and visionary leadership in business and… [detailed...]
