Synopsis:

In this text, the author shares his professional and personal adventures, and offers insights and observations on several business and social issues, including values, management, competition, and ethics.

From the Publisher: INDUSTRY WEEK, November 1997
Some executives become mired in the day-to-day tasks of running a business, others develop an ability to take a broader view of their organization and its global context. Norman R. Augustine, Chairman of Lockheed Martin Corp., exemplifies the latter in his second book, AUGUSTINE'S TRAVELS, a sequel to his business bestseller Augustine's Laws. The title's "travels" are both symbolic and real: Augustine has traveled an eventful road as a genuine "rocket scientist" who has held research, engineering, and executive positions in industry and government. And he also recently concluded a whirlwind eight-day tour as a Time magazine honorary journalist to Cuba,, Russia, China, and Vietnam, among other countries. Witty and insightful, Augustine shares his adventures as an honorary correspondent, as well as his views on topics such as ethics, leadership, competitiveness, mergers and acquisitions, and education.
