Streetwise: Getting To and Through Goldman Sachs

內容簡介

內容簡介 布蘭克費恩兩度被《Time》評為全球最具影響力人物之一，並在2009年獲得《Financial Times》年度人物獎。「布蘭克費恩對於人性、市場以及整體人生都有驚人的洞察力。在2008–2009年的金融危機期間，他行事果斷，而他對當時發生的一切提供了獨特的見解。」——巴菲特 (Warren Buffett)「這是一本犀利的內部人士指南，講述金融業在幾乎崩潰前如何失控，隨後卻變得比以往更龐大的那個時代……它不僅是一個華爾街故事，也是一個更廣泛關於文化與領導力的敘事。」——《金融時報》(Financial Times)當布蘭克費恩被批評為華爾街的「肥貓」時，他只能微笑，心裡想到自己艱難的童年：他在布魯克林東紐約臭名昭著的公共住宅區長大；就讀的高中混亂不堪，以至於他在校期間甚至不敢離開教室去上廁所。能進入哈佛大學幾乎像是一次不可能成功的「登月任務」，而他作為局外人的感覺，甚至在哈佛法學院時期也始終沒有消失。當人們覺得他帶著「街頭氣息」時，他們想到的可不是華爾街。但即使那份不服輸的倔強始終存在，他同樣擁有一種幽默而堅韌的精神，以及清晰而民主的智慧，能看穿虛張聲勢，並在意想不到的地方發現人才與想法。《Streetwise》是一部坦率得令人愉快、尖銳又非常幽默的回顧，講述布蘭克費恩在金融、人性以及世界運作方式上的學習歷程。書中充滿了各種領導經驗與教訓：如何帶領一群聰明、強勢、競爭激烈的人並讓他們朝共同目標協作；在順境與逆境中如何改變與調整；如何管理風險；以及如何在危機真正吞沒你之前就察覺它的到來，從而帶領團隊安全渡過風暴。布蘭克費恩因在全球金融危機期間冷靜掌舵高盛而聞名，而這段故事以及許多關鍵時刻，都在書中完整呈現。作為一本關於如何明智地守護一個超越自我之使命的強大藍圖，《Streetwise》將為全球商業社群乃至更廣泛的讀者帶來啟發與洞見。From the long-tenured head Goldman Sachs - an institution legendary for its culture of success - comes a candid memoir of global leadership in an age of extreme turbulence'Lloyd Blankfein is scary smart about people, markets, and life generally. During the 2008-2009 financial crisis, Lloyd acted decisively, and he tells the story of what happened with unique insights' WARREN BUFFETT'A sharp insider's guide to the era of when the financial industry spun out of control before nearly collapsing, then getting larger than ever ... As much as a Wall Street story, it is a wider narrative of culture and leadership' FINANCIAL TIMESWhen Lloyd Blankfein was attacked as a Wall Street fat cat, he had to smile, thinking of his precarious childhood in the notorious public housing projects of East New York, Brooklyn, and attending a high school so chaotic he didn't feel safe leaving class to go to the bathroom in his time there. Harvard University was a total moonshot, and his outsider status never wore off, there or at Harvard Law. When he struck people as street-y, it wasn't Wall Street they were thinking of. But if the chip never quite left Blankfein's shoulder, neither did a wry, resilient spirit and a lucid, democratic intelligence that saw through airs and found talent and ideas in unlikely places.Streetwise is a delightfully honest, sharp and often very funny reckoning with Blankfein's education - in finance, human nature and the workings of the world. It abounds with lessons about leading teams of brilliant, aggressive, competitive people and harmonising them around shared goals; changing when times are hard and when they're good; managing risk; and knowing a crisis is at hand before it swamps you so you can guide your team to the further shore. Blankfein is famed for his calm hand on Goldman Sachs's tiller during the global financial crisis, and that story is told in full here, among many other decisive episodes.A powerful blueprint for the wise stewardship of a cause that is larger than yourself, Streetwise will inspire and inform readers throughout the global business community and beyond.

各界推薦 A sharp insider's guide to the era of when the financial industry spun out of control before nearly collapsing, then getting larger than ever ... As much as a Wall Street story, it is a wider narrative of culture and leadership: an explanation of how Goldman became such a powerful force by blending individual ambitions with collective purpose -- John Gapper ― Financial TimesLloyd Blankfein is scary smart about people, markets, and life generally. His 10,000 Small Businesses idea proved to be a huge winner, and I personally witnessed the time and effort he devoted to its success. During the 2008-2009 financial crisis, Lloyd acted decisively, and he tells the story of what happened with unique insights. -- Warren BuffettLloyd Blankfein has always been a straight shooter, but his journey from public housing to the heights of Wall Street wasn't a straight line. Streetwise is packed with important lessons about leadership, risk-taking, decision-making, and giving back. -- Michael BloombergStreetwise is a disarmingly honest account, full of insights about the changes in the business of finance, as down-to-earth and sharp-witted as the man himself, a must-read for anyone who wishes to understand the power dynamics within a giant investment bank. -- Liaquat Ahamed, Winner of the Pulitzer Prize
