He employs real-life business examples to illustratehis points and he makes a compelling case for the principles whichhe believes can make or break a company."

"Value Leadership is an insightful and inspiring book. Itrecognizes that restoring trust in corporate America will take morethan legislation and compliance with regulations. It will demand afundamental re-examination of corporate values, cultures andrelationships. Cohan presents a cogent, practical model for thisprocess, which should interest investors, executives, boarddirectors, employees, policymakers and anyone who wants to seebusiness generate value for society, in a sustainable and ethicalway."

"Value Leadership evolves Cohan's earlier paradigms intoseven extremely clear principles to he lp both graduate studentsand managers in our executive education programs analyze companiesin today's hot fields like genomics, bio-informatics, andphotonics. I think his principles, cases, and tools will also bequite useful for managers, venture capital investors, boardmembers, and others who have to assess and guide growthbusinesses."

"There are two things every executive should understand aboutValue Leadership. First, the Value Quotient is a strategicassessment and planning tool that is easy to understand, and put towork. Second, it actually does work. Brilliantly."

"It's so easy to commit conceptually to value leadership, but sohard to implement that commitment in a sustained way and to achievebest-in-class results. Cohan provides guidelines for a systematicapproach to both implementation and measurement of value leadershipderived from his in-depth studies of companies that demonstratesustained value leadership. The world needs more value leaders.Peter Cohan can help."

"Value Leadership is an extremely important book becauseit lays out a clear and navigable road map for companies to restoretrust with customers, employees and investors. It thoroughlyintegrates uplifting principles with a thoughtful measurementapproach to ensure outstanding results, providing a healthyantidote to the cynicism that has grown so pervasively...Irecommend this book strongly to boards and management teams, whoare almost universally dealing with these issues."

"Peter Cohan takes us back to the future with laser-like focusthrough the prism of value (based) leadership. Cohan appealspowerfully to our natural instincts to "do the right thing", andreminds us that honesty, integrity, and character in their fullsplendor are the truly enduring elements of successful Americancapitalism--and, as important and measurable as profits andgrowth. Value Leadership is a much-needed prescription at a uniquetime in American business, and stands apart from its genre byreminding us of the traits that make the pursuit of profits a noblecause"
