Shortly after World War II, 27-year-old Ray Hickok - just back from Air Force service - became president of Hickok Belts, on his father’s death. And if Ray’s directors knew the secrets of modern business management, they weren’t ready to share with Ray.
In 1950, Ray and a small band of like-minded businessmen formed the Young Presidents’ Organization, hoping collectively to piece together modern business know-how. Members had to have become president-before the age of 40-of a firm with at least 40 employees and annual sales of $1 million.
This book is about the first 50 years of this organization.
