Hammer

"In this age of overnight successes and failures, it is awe-inspiring to realize that John Deere has been doing business since 1837. The principles and values that have made this company great and have enabled it to endure are as relevant in the 21st century as they were in the 19th:quality, innovation, integrity, and commitment. Illuminating and entertaining, this is a wonderful book about a wonderful company." ----Dr. Michael Hammer, Author of Reengineering the Corporation: A Manifesto for Business Revolution
