Books like Made in Korea by Richard M. Steers
Made in Korea recounts the story of how Chung Ju Yung rose from poverty to build one of the world's largest and most successful business empires - Hyundai - through a combination of creative thinking, tenacity, timing, political skills, and a business strategy that few competitors ever understood.
Unlike most CEOs of major firms, Chung has always preferred the company of his workers to that of the global executive elite. Hard work, creativity, and a capacity to never give up - this is the essence of Chung's life. In each of his ventures, he exhibited a sheer determination to succeed, regardless of the obstacles, and he worked tirelessly to instill this drive in all of his employees.
Illustrated with 32 pages of color photographs not previously seen in the West, including photos of Chung's recent historic return visit to North Korea in 1998, Made in Korea takes stock of Chung's entire life, highlighting both his contributions to society and the lessons his work can teach to aspiring entrepreneurs.
First publish date: 1999
