Acerca de esta escucha

When U.S. presidents clash with corporate titans, what tips the balance of power?

In The Power and the Money, acclaimed presidential historian Tevi Troy takes listeners on a riveting journey through the biggest battles between CEOs and the nation’s commander in chief. He unearths the untold stories—both political and personal—that have shaped America.

Troy shows how the vast reach of the federal government become a critical fact of life for every business, entrepreneur, and innovator. Today, companies find themselves navigating a competitive landscape defined by stringent regulations, so top CEOs and key business leaders must influence the legislative and regulatory system. As public affairs teams and government relations experts put forward strategies to survive Washington, CEOs have become the most important warrior on the frontlines. The Power and the Money shows how some of the nation’s most important CEOs forged (and fumbled) relationships with the president.

Troy also shows how the most powerful man in the world depends on CEOs. CEOs provide assistance in the form of personnel, policy insights, and campaign cash, but they also become essential foils for presidents, serving as both allies and convenient enemies.

The Power and the Money reveals an intricate web of power, where CEOs need presidents, and presidents need CEOs. Troy shows how each must step carefully—or risk unpredictable costs and collateral damage. From heavyweights John D. Rockefeller and Mark Zuckerberg to Katherine Graham, Elon Musk, and more, Troy takes readers inside the friendships and the conflicts that shook the American economy and re-shaped America.

Drawing on his experiences as bestselling historian and former senior White House aide, Troy offers unique insights and details that shed light on the growing, intertwining behemoths of government and big business—and what it means for the future of our nation.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The Best Account of Modern Business and Politics

This is the perfect book for those interested in business and politics. It is a great and gripping account of the modern era of big business that has essentially required CEOs to become personal emissaries to political leaders - for better or worse. I learned so much and it gave me great ideas for how to deal with certain situations. And it is also a fun read - because the stories and figures are so interesting. This is going on my “re-read annually” list.

Interesting idea, poor execution

Wonderful idea but I think the author went too broad in historical scope. Just feels like a single anecdote per CEO. no real depth or new insights .

Completely disappointing

This book is complete crap. The stories of the CEOs and presidents from long ago were mildly entertaining but once he got to the modern people I know about personally I realized it's slanted fiction. What a disappointment. This is the worst book in the history genre besides Zinn's 'The people's history of the United States'. They both deserve to be thrown into the same trashcan.
