Description: Confessions of an Advertising Man PRODUCT DETAILS: Product Description A new edition of the timeless business classic featured on Mad Men—as fresh and relevant now as the day it was written "We admire people who work hard, who are objective and thorough. We detest office politicians, toadies, bullies, and pompous asses. We abhor ruthlessness. The way up our ladder is open to everybody. In promoting people to top jobs, we are influenced as much by their character as anything else." —David Ogilvy David Ogilvy was considered the "father of advertising" and a creative genius by many of the biggest global brands.
