The book, written from interviews with Burdakin before his death in 2014, gives real-life examples of how Burdakin’s management principles and personal qualities helped him solve labor- management problems, update railroad technology, protect worker safety, and improve employee morale while managing a four thousand–person workforce.

This book will provide insights for managers of any business as well as for those seeking to balance a successful career and a rewarding home life.
