| | Availability:
Usually ships in 15-21 business days | | | Having been rocked by one damaging revelation of misbehavior after another, Wall Street is in a state of crisis. Investors are disgusted by the misdeeds of a few and suspicious of the industry at large. Every firm finds its integrity open to question. Regulators are up in arms. And the industry is facing billions of dollars in costs to comply with a floodtide of new regulations.
But imagine what could happen if Wall Street firms looked back to a simpler time when a handshake was enough to seal a deal, and right and wrong were as clear as black and white. What if executives, portfolio managers, analysts, and traders decided that some things aren’t for sale? What if every major investment firm agreed to live by the principle that the client always comes first?
In words and images, Cowboy Ethics explores the life and code of the working cowboy as a source of inspiration pointing the industry to a way out of its troubles.
The book is intended as the catalyst for a movement to transform the industry – not with the carrot and stick, but from the inside out – one person, firm, and organization at a time.

 Cowboy Ethics Aug 08, 2008
Very accurate in terms of the "cowboy" expectations of society. Truth, honesty, taking responsibility are always on the forefront. Without those characteristics you don't get far with animals or people.
Distills the Basics Jul 12, 2008
Between Mr. Owen's words and Mr. Stoecklein's great photographs, one will find a great little book of distilled genius---for any industry. I've given this book as a gift to my children and clients alike. Most could learn from the "Cowboy Code" described---and most would thrive. If you're casting about for a young person, and if they like ponies and cowboys---get this book---and read it---the words are just as compelling as the photographs. There's a lot we could learn from the "simple" life of cowboys. Good stuff. Timeless wisdom----to be used.
A MUST READ! Jul 07, 2008
Every person needs to read this book. Personal choice and accountability. Easy. Simple. Basic.
Ethic's my Father taught me Jul 03, 2008
This is a great book to remind you the ethics your father taught you many years ago. It is a great reminder and a help to refocus what is important and an important way to live ones life. Everyone should read and give to their closest friends and family.
Cowboy Ethics Mar 25, 2008
Cowboy Ethics is a well written insight into the principles by which today's modern cowboys live. These ethics are as applicable to modern city living as they are to a life in the saddle on the range. The striking artistic photographs give the reader a sense of what ranch life consists of and add immeasurably to the text. For anyone interested in western life or interested in principles to guide their own life Cowboy Ethics is a must read.
