While this challenge gift for business and society in general, it also offers a unique opportunity for firms to recognize and take advantage of them, said Dr. Bruce Wilson, president and founder of the AHC.
Tags: Based on thirty years of experience working with companies around the world, new Piaseckis book, Do With Less: New Way to Wealth (Wiley, March 2012) offers a revolutionary approach to think about and to do business in this new era.
Tags: the last challenge of the new millennium will be those who are looking for new and sustainable ways to respond to major social questions of poverty, mobility, and energy now, writes Wilson. Important to this effort is what he calls art competitive frugality. This means that a return to core values of diligence and frugality that great statesman, inventor, and writer Benjamin Franklin wrote so well about two centuries ago. We must resist the temptation to use technology for technology, and instead focus on the lack of demand creative solutions, says Wilson. Rediscovering the important relationship between frugality and competition will bring the golden age of efficiency, the results more directly, and more intelligent competition.
Drawing on decades of experience Piaseckis,
interview with visionary leaders, and different topics such as health care access reform and development of mega cities around the world, do more of LESS offers powerful knowledge about critical issues such as:

As Gene Miller Innovation Center City wrote in the preface to the book, McCain took three decades of teaching and traveling and moving us forward through a combination of narrative non-fiction, personal stories, reflections and wise in sports and the modern era.
