Publisher's Note
Al Dunlap is an original: an outspoken, irascible executive with an incredible track record of injecting new life into tired companies. The business media have coined a new verb--"to dunlap"--when describing a fast company turnaround. In April 1994 he became CEO and chairman of Scott Paper, which had lost $277 million in 1993, was on credit watch for excessive debt, and whose stock had been comatose for seven years. In a mere nineteen months, Scott had record earnings, the stock had increased in value by $6.5 billion (over 200 percent), and Dunlap merged Scott with Kimberly-Clark in a stock swap that valued Scott at $9 billion and created the second largest consumer-products company in the United States.Mean Business combines Dunlaps colorful personal history--his working-class background, employment, friendship with such people as Sir James Goldsmith and George Soros, his views on why too many executives think of themselves as corporate royalty--and his provocative ideas on management and leadership. His specific, tested program on how to evaluate and choose a management team, get the lowest costs from suppliers, improve the balance sheet, and develop a real strategy make this an invaluable book.The controversy about corporate performance and how to achieve it is near the boiling point, as executives face the hard fact of business life: What is good or even excellent today won't be satisfactory tomorrow. Mean Business is absolutely essential for both companies in trouble as well as those at the top of their game.

Industry reviews
"Al Dunlap has sparked a revolution on the American corporate scene. He is the nation's leading CEO advocate of shareholder rights. And, more importantly, he has turned traditional managerial theory on its head by demonstrating that you can entrepreneurialize the large-scale public corporation."
Catalog - Charles Elson 

"If you think the dead can't come back to life, read Mean Business. Al Dunlap took a sleepy, non-competitive company and turned it into a world-class performer. He not only shook up an entire company but an entire industry as well. Dunlap is corporate America's ultimate change agent."
Greenberg 

"Lively, funny and provocative. No one feels neutral about Al Dunlap--you either love his ideas about running a business or hate them. Read Mean Business and find out what he's all about."
Perelman 

"If you want a book that shows you all the colorful contradictions of late 20th century capitalism, you've come to the right place."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Bob Baker (10/13/1996)
