In Value Leadership, renowned management and investment
expert Peter Cohan — whose 2002 stock picks gained 81percent
when the S&P 500 plunged 24 percent— provides a new and
powerful concept of sustainable corporate value. Using his
expertise in understanding shareholder value, Cohan offers
executives seven management principles that were tested in periods
of economic expansion and contraction. These principles are:
valuing human relationships, fostering teamwork, experimenting
frugally, fulfilling your commitments, fighting complacency,
winning through multiple means, and giving to your community. Cohan
illustrates these principles by drawing on examples from eight
Value Leaders— Synopsys, WalMart, Goldman Sachs, MBNA,
Johnson & Johnson, J. M. Smucker, Southwest Airlines, and
Microsoft. Through two recessions, these companies grew 35 percent
faster, were 109 percent more profitable, and generated five times
more shareholder wealth than their peers.
