AOGR is a getAbstract Business Book of the Year

The Boston Consulting Group’s book Accelerating Out of the Great Recession has just been named one of the top five English-language finalists in the getAbstract International Business Book of the Year award. Out of more than 10,000 entrants, Accelerating Out of the Great Recession beat out the competition by offering a comprehensive guide to growing a robust business in a stagnant economy. In previous years, the getAbstract International Business Book of the Year prize has been awarded to visionaries such as Malcolm Gladwell, Joseph Stiglitz, and Robert J. Schiller.  We are thrilled to see David Rhodes and Daniel Stelter of BCG in such good company.

An article by the authors was also recently featured in the Summer 2010 issue of MWorld, a subsidiary publication of the American Management Association. In the piece “How to Win in the Post-Recession,” Rhodes and Stelter offer practical management advice and outline ways in which the recession significantly impacts business leaders and executives. The four-page article is highlighted on the magazine’s cover.
