Publisher's Synopsis
Corporate America is all about American corporations and how they influence the American society both economically and politically. The number of American corporations runs into millions and there are tens of hundreds of these that make annual revenues in billions of dollars. There are at least three hundred of the Fortune 500 corporations that run global operations and influence international affairs by implication. American corporations reflect the image and strength of America. The bravery of Americans is reflected in all the scientific discoveries, technological inventions, process innovations, and entrepreneurial exploits which are deployed to provide both local solutions and global interventions. That America is great is due to the greatness of its corporations. American corporations provide solutions to various human needs, create the jobs that sustain the middle class, and ensure economic empowerment for individuals and households that guarantees personal freedom and promotes national democracy. This book seeks to explore and explain the origin, benefits, achievements, and difficulties of American organizations and how they can be transformed and re-positioned to address today's challenges and remain tomorrow's giants. The greatness of America lies on the robustness of its private-sector-driven economy which results in job and income creation for the American people and revenue generation for the government. Failure of the private sector to achieve these two scenarios, simultaneously, portends danger to the American nation.
