The average Mafia don know more about effective leadership than any Fortune 500 CEO. The Mob is notorious for its cruel and immoral practices, but its most successful bosses have always been extremely smart businessmen. Now, former Gambino associate Louis Ferrante reveals the Mafia's surprisingly effective management techniques and explains how to apply them - legally - to any legitimate business. After being arrested and serving an eight-and-a-half-year prison sentence, Ferrante went straight. He realized that the Mob's most valuable business lessons would allow him to survive and thrive in the real world. In Mob Rules, Ferrante draws on his real-life experiences to offer fascinating advice that really works and to share behind-the-scenes episodes just as outrageous as those occurring on Wall Street every day. 'Ferrante draws on an extensive knowledge of world events, Mob lore, and personal experience to deliver an engrossing effort that reads like a rousing memoir, meditation on world history, and Mafia exposé all in one.' Kirkus Reviews 'An excellent example for business wisdom seekers.' Publishers Weekly 'One of the wisest and wittiest collections of reflections on life and business ever penned by a wiseguy.' Fort Worth Star-Telegram 'Lou Ferrante's talent for storytelling shines through in Mob Rules.' Nicholas Pileggi, author of Wiseguy and Casino
