―Brian Tracy, Chairman/CEO, Brian Tracy International and Author, No Excuses!

“Cultural storytelling seeds P&G’s core values so deeply, they transplant with great vigor―P&G went viral 100 years ago! This engaging new volume of values-based business cases is invaluable schooling for any leader seeking extraordinary results. It’s personal and corporate values, not number crunching, that fuels many of P&G’s hits. Fittingly, 100% of the book’s profits go to charitable causes.”
―Mary Bishop, President, Retired Chief Marketing Officer, Leo Burnett

“…engaging narrative stories of 34 executive members of the P&G Alumni Network provide compelling insights into how basic values have been at the core of P&G’s strategic success…[and] how values acquired during their tenure at P&G have been transferred as strategic drivers as they assumed senior leadership roles in other organizations, both in for-profit and not-for-profit settings.”
―Dr. Lyle Yorks, Associate Professor, Department of Organization and Leadership, Columbia University

“This is a book that portrays through human stories the importanceof values and how the values that have been developed and adopted in the P&G culture have not only ensured P&G’s success but been the underlying factor for success of P&G alumni, who may have gone to work for other companies. In an era where the touch words in business education are ‘innovation’ and ‘technology enhancement,’ this is a must read to remind us that corporate long-term success is still a product of the people who work for the company and their values.”
―Ronald K. Machtley, President, Bryant University
