The book draws on feature and documentary films, TV, social science, and journalism to show that in the 21st century, the United States is reaping the fruit of a long-standing and deep-rooted faith in one take on business practice. Our emphasis on competition and individual initiative has made us the standard-setters for a truly global society, but it has also resulted in a nation on a permanent war footing. That stance threatens to undermine much that we as a nation have achieved; the challenge now is to determine how we might imagine our way forward to more positive social outcomes in politics and economics at home and abroad. Rooted in the history of World War II and the Vietnam era, War Stories traces an arc of military American self-perception on the screen, the printed page, and in public conversation over the past 20 years. It juxtaposes to that arc a different, potentially more liberating and productive story, linking personal and professional commitments to organizational culture and, finally, systems thinking. Ethical, sustainable business practice depends on leaders who can tell that story of business in society, integrating public, private, and civil sector imperatives for an audience eager to engage them. War Stories ends on one such narrative, identifying the practical elements by which we can combine America's most cherished founding principles with 21st century realities. 410 0$aGiving voice to values on business ethics and corporate social responsibility collection.$x2333-8814 606 $aWar and society$zUnited States 606 $aCompetition$zUnited States 606 $aLeadership$zUnited States 606 $aNational characteristics, American 606 $aWar stories, American 610 $aAfghanistan 610 $aAmerican politics 610 $aautobiography 610 $abusiness 610 $abusiness ethics 610 $acombat 610 $acompetition 610 $aconflict 610 $acorporate citizenship 610 $acreativity 610 $aculture 610 $aethics 610 $afiction 610 $afilm 610 $agenocide 610 $ahuman nature 610 $aimagination 610 $aIraq 610 $aleadership 610 $anarrative 610 $arace 610 $aRwanda 610 $astory 610 $astorytelling 610 $aveterans 610 $avideo games 610 $aVietnam 610 $awar 610 $aweapons 610 $aWorld War II 615 0$aWar and society 615 0$aCompetition 615 0$aLeadership 615 0$aNational characteristics, American. 615 0$aWar stories, American. 676 $a303.66 700 $aHafrey$b Leigh.$01531536 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797959903321 996 $aWar stories$93777277 997 $aUNINA
