Summary: THIS BOOK COULDN'T be more timely. Corporate scandals still reverberate, the latest round concerning the "backdating" of stock options. Before these, there were mutual fund trading abuses and before these, Enron, WorldCom,Adelphi, and others. As we look over the business terrain of the past decade, the disasters that await us if we disconnect ethics from performance are obvious. Clearly, an ethics-free focus on performance is a superb way to destroy performance. The only thing it secures is a strong shot at jail time.
