“When good companies put the well-being of their customers, their associates, and their communities first, financial success will follow,” Blank writes. “The entrepreneurs and business leaders of today and tomorrow have an extraordinary opportunity: to prove that through upholding values we can create value-for the company, for the customer, and for the community.”
Good Company takes readers inside the story of how Blank turned around a struggling NFL team, rebooted a nearly-bankrupt retail chain, built a brand-new stadium, revitalized a blighted neighborhood, launched a startup soccer club, and more.
