Business Adrift is a book written by Wallace Brett Donham, a prominent American business executive and academic. The book is a critical analysis of the state of American business during the early 20th century, particularly in the aftermath of the Great Depression.Donham argues that American businesses had become adrift and lacked a clear sense of purpose and direction. He attributes this to a number of factors, including a focus on short-term profits at the expense of long-term planning, a lack of concern for the well-being of employees and the wider community, and a failure to recognize the importance of ethical and social responsibility in business.Drawing on his own experience as a business executive and his extensive research into the history of American business, Donham offers a series of recommendations for how businesses can regain their sense of purpose and direction. These include a greater focus on employee welfare, a commitment to ethical and socially responsible practices, and a renewed emphasis on long-term planning and investment.Overall, Business Adrift is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the challenges facing American businesses in the early 20th century, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and development of modern business practices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
