Rules for Corporate Radicals
Rules for Corporate Warriors is an outstanding book. If you work in corporation besieged by activists and you haven't read this book, your reading is sadly deficient.Nichols' decision to take a forthright stance is rooted in his sophisticated understanding of how this "industry" operates. It is just a pity that more people in the media don't possess the same grasp of this totally unregulated, global multi-billion
industry.
Rules for Corporate Warrirors flies in the face of the so-called "conventional wisdom" in corporations which is to hand over a large check before finding somewhere to hide and just hoping that they don't come back.
As Nichols so amply illustrates, the problem is that the activists do come back; after all, the activists need money in order to critique capitalism properly.
Written in an engaging manner, it is book that takes to the prevailing paradigm of issues management with a sledgehammer.
But not before time.

Required reading for corporate executives
Nick Nichols has written THE textbook on fighting activist groups that are more interested in adding corporate trophy heads to their mantels than truly making the world a better place. This book is definitely a "must-read" for corporate executives, lawyers and communications experts. Fantatical activists will hate this book, but I highly recommend it.

Rules for Corporate Warriors: How to fight and Survive Attack Shakedowns by Nick Nichols
Everyone should read Rules for Corporate Warriors! In it, PR crisis management guru Nick Nichols takes the reader on a guided tour of the billion-dollar world of unregulated NGO's, showing us the underbelly of multi-national organizations that make their money by attacking and shaking down corporations with deep pockets. Nichols not only gives the reader a ringside seat to the carnage, he also offers strategic advice about how to effectively counter and overcome these shakedown groups. Whether corporate executive, concerned citizen or activist, if you've ever been angered about the extent of corruption in even one social movement, you will recognize in Nichols' work a template for all the movements and causes that have been hijacked and corrupted over the last 30 years - from animal rights and radical environmentalism to consumer and civil rights. Rules for Corporate Warriors is well researched, practical in its approach and yet thoroughly entertaining. I urge everyone who values living in a free and democratic society to buy it and give it their full attention today. Similar Products
