Be sure to join us on Wednesday, November 30th at 6:30pm for a Zoom virtual talk with New York Times Best Selling Author William D. Cohan.
Mr. Cohan's new book POWER FAILURE: The Rise and Fall of an American Icon covers the dramatic rise-and unimaginable fall-of America's most iconic corporation by New York Times bestselling author and pre-eminent financial journalist William D. Cohan<https://williamcohan.com/about/>.
No company embodied American ingenuity, innovation, and industrial power more spectacularly and more consistently than the General Electric Company.
The company embodied both the muscle of American business- entrepreneurial drive, inventiveness, financial legerdemain- and its weaknesses- unchecked egos, grandiosity, hubris, and corruption. The story of GE's glorious rise and distressing fall is not just the story of a finance powerhouse. It's a cautionary tale about blind ambition and trying to live up continuously to a flawed corporate mythology.
