  Politicians, voters, executives, and employees all want the answer to one question: How can America compete with cheap foreign labor, and restore skilled, well-paying jobs to our economy? American Drive answers that question. 
  An executive with nearly thirty years in the trenches of the hard-nosed Detroit automobile industry, Richard E. "Dick" Dauch had long dreamed of running his own manufacturing company. From his first job on the plant floor at General Motors to his crucial role in helping to rescue Chrysler from the brink of bankruptcy, Dauch focused passionately, and relentlessly, on quality, productivity, and flexibility in manufacturing. In 1993 he took on the challenge of his life, buying a lagging axle supply and parts business from GM, along with five rusting, unprofitable, union-controlled, near-decrepit plants in the heart of a crime-ridden Detroit and a deteriorating environment in Buffalo, New York. 
  The newly created "stand-alone" company was named American Axle and Manufacturing. Dauch set out to create a world-class industrial automotive manufacturer.  He bought and bulldozed the crack, liquor, and prostitution businesses that surrounded the company and rebuilt the plants. He upward educated, trained, and expanded the skill sets of the workforce, struck tough bargains with unions, and solved massive quality problems that were costing tens of millions every year and undermining customer satisfaction. Within one year of opening the doors, AAM had turned an astounding sixty-six million dollars in profit. 
  In American Drive, Dauch narrates the story of AAM against the backdrop of his nearly fifty years in the auto industry, from its glory days to its decline in the face of foreign competition, government bailouts, battles with unions, and the recent Great Recession. Tough, smart, inspiring, high-energy, and opinionated, Dauch offers memorable lessons on leadership, advanced product technology, communication, negotiation, and making profits in the most difficult times. Dauch's story transcends the auto industry and draws a blueprint for job creation, manufacturing competitiveness, economic growth, and excellence in America.

  The Manager and the Monk - A...

  What could the conversation between an internationally-prominent  CEO and a career Benedictine monk possibly teach us about business?  In The Manager and the Monk, Jochen Zeitz and Anselm  Grün engage in a lively dialogue about leading with  values in the fast-changing 21st-century world, exploring such  questions as: Do core values stand a chance in the world of  business? To what extent does a monk think like a manager? How much  consideration and empathy can a manager afford to show? What do  money and success mean to us?   At first glance, Jochen Zeitz and Anselm Grün seem as  different as two men can be. Zeitz is the CEO of a major  corporation (Puma), a leader at multinational luxury brands holding  company PPR, and was the youngest CEO in history to lead a company  on the German stock exchange. He speaks 6 languages and has lived  in the US, Germany, and Kenya. Anselm Grün, meanwhile, has  lived in a Benedictine monastery since he was 19. He manages the  staff and finances of the monastery's commercial activities, which  include beekeeping, furniture-making, and baking. He is also an  author of dozens of religious and spiritual books. Their  conversation began two years ago at an onstage discussion in front  of an audience in Nuremberg. Aware that the missions and goals of  their organizations and their lifestyles are worlds apart, they  write: "We were initially surprised and intrigued to find that  there is more that unites us than divides us. We both wish to  protect the environment, improve society, and employ sustainable  methods: both within our companies' and beyond their  borders. As managers, we must learn to conduct business without  harming people or the environment.  As spiritual human beings,  we look for ways to find ourselves and create more unity without  losing sight of the need for efficient management."  To inform their dialogue, Zeitz (the Manager) spent some time in  the monastery, where he was able to find peace and see his world  from a different point of view. In return, Grün (the Monk)  expanded his knowledge of virtual' companies such as PUMA  and the fast-paced, electronically networked world of targets and  numbers by visiting the group headquarters and attending  conferences.  Through a series of topical chapters on subjects such as  sustainability, the economy, and prosperity, culture, values,  success and responsibility, The Manager and the Monk engage  in a dialogue that shows how to effectively manage with values in  the 21st century.
