GOOD COMPANY - ARTHUR M BLANK GEBUNDEN

A WALL STREET JOURNAL AND USA TODAY BESTSELLERFeaturing an introduction by President Jimmy
CarterThe Home Depot cofounder and owner of the NFL's Atlanta Falcons and MLS's Atlanta United
shares a vision and a roadmap for values-based business. Arthur M. Blank believes that for good
companies  purpose and profit can-and should-go hand in hand. And he should know. Together with
cofounder Bernie Marcus  Blank built The Home Depot from an idea and a dream to a $50
billion-dollar company  the leading home improvement retailer in the world. And even while
opening a new store every 42 hours  they never lost sight of their commitment to care for their
people and communities. In fact  in 2001  The Home Depot was voted America's most socially
responsible company. Blank left The Home Depot that same year with a burning question: Could
the values and culture that made that company great be replicated? Good Company takes readers
inside the story of howhe did just that-turning around a struggling NFL team  rebooting a
near-bankrupt retail chain  building a brand-new stadium  revitalizing a blighted neighborhood
launching a startup soccer club  and more. When good companies put the wellbeing of their
customers  their associates  and their communities first  financial success will follow  Blank
writes. The entrepreneurs and business leaders of today and tomorrow have an extraordinary
opportunity: to prove that through upholding values we can create value-for the company  for
the customer  and for the community.
