CORPOCRACY

This post is from Robert A.G. Monks of Lens Governance Advisors.

I have enjoyed many reviews of CORPOCRACY but none pleases me as much as the following from a teacher in Maine:

“Monks, internationally known governance guru, of the stature of Peter Drucker, author of Corpocracy is right now being quoted on NPR/MPBN (Wednesday last) on Exxon’s promotion of false science.

Please show me that you are aware of him. (I don’t know him well, but I just sent him a copy of this and you can reach him at that email.) I suggest you use it.

NOTE his sub title:

Corpocracy: How CEOs and the Business Roundtable Hijacked the World’s Greatest Wealth Machine — And How to Get It Back by Robert A. G. Monks

His book includes a sensational expose of Lewis Powell, Justice of the Supreme Court, whom he labels the “consiglieri” of the corpocracy and its “godfather”, as author of the “Powell Memo.” And he knew Powell as a lawyer whom he hired in one corporate business matter because he knew he was the best!

When are you going to get him interviewed for three hours as he deserves? HE IS SPEAKING DIRCTLY TO THE CURRENT FINANCIALIZED ECONOMIC DISASTER!
John C Bogle and he agree. As you will see, he, like Bogle, knows his business. MONKS is even more of a heavyweight and has better more far seeing recommendations.
Worth your attention. VERY MUCH SO!

Maybe Bogle would interview him for you. Or Lawrence Mitchell of GWU right down there in DC, my old haunts in your neighborhood, when I was a speechwriter for the head of SBA, Howard J Samuels.

I am teaching MONKS in my new course at Senior College in Rockland on The Corporation and the New Capitalisms. The registrants love it! “
