Book Summary:

My Years with General Motors is both a memoir and a management classic, written by Alfred P. Sloan, who led General Motors (GM) through a period of extraordinary growth and innovation in the first half of the 20th century. The book provides an insider's view of how GM evolved into one of the largest and most successful corporations in the world.
