Every time there's a big story like this, you can count on a passel of "journalists" to come a-runnin' to cash in on it. Well, I'm not an insurance or financial expert and personally don't worship at the Hank Greenberg altar. However, my spouse retired from his exec position at AIG before the excrement hit the impeller and says this is absolutely the one that gets it right. If you want to know why this man pretty much never loses and is, to use a regrettably hackneyed phrase, really the smartest guy in the room, read this. If you've read others on this topic, you'll notice the difference in quality, detail, and language. If you wondered why Elliot Spitzer got in so deep, you'll find out here.An engrossing read, obviously well-informed. Bound to be original source material when the B-school types do their case studies. They could do a lot worse than to listen to Hank Greenberg.
"The AIG Story" is well written and, despite not being a business person, I found it very informative about the insurance business and how a successful company is made.The book is in two parts: the early days of Hank Greenberg's insurance career, the start of AIG on his watch, and the world-wide expansion of AIG and the American Insurance Industry.However, I found reading Part 2 VERY difficult to read, as I had to read about the almost maniacal antics of a New York State politician by the name of ELLIOT SPITZER, who had no business being NYS AG, much less NYS governor later on. As many will recall, Spitzer's personal stupidity finally got to him when he appeared in a Federal indictment calling him "Client #9" in a taking-down of a prostitution ring, which resulted in his embarassing (to his family and supporters, but apparently not to Spitzer) resignation from the Governor's office. Reading in the book how Spitzer, with little or no evidence, went after AIG and Greenberg personally, for no reason other than Spitzer's ego and political ambitions, "crafted" a personal vendetta against AIG, knowing how Spitzer's "career" would end. What made reading this all that much more difficult was how the Board of "Directors" of AIG had no back-bone to support Greenberg or to face-off with the lunacy of an out-of-control politician. They caved in, to the detriment of AIG. I tried to pass up many pages detailing Spitzer's antics, but continued reading of Part 2 has come to a halt, if only temporarily.Part 1 would have made a good book in itself, leaving out the Spitzer "era."If you have any background in business, and aspire to move up in your industry, read this book, even if it's only Part 1.
The list of properties AIG put up in fire sale is staggering. The government "raped" AIG;took 80% of the company. It's unprecedented. But, AIG deserved it; a subsidiary in London ofthe largest insurance company in the world brought down the whole house. It's comparable to having 10,000employees and being worth $1 billion and one employee destroys your company. One subsidiaryunder the direction of one incompetent, covetous geek "gambled" the entire company into oblivion.
I worked at AIG for eighteen years, so was intrigued when this book came out. The extent of the story is thorough and fascinating. It not only provides an overview of events from the early days, but it also goes into how the demise of AIG came about, and its sad outcome. This ending is significant because it shows how, when a corporate culture changes as it did when Greenberg was ousted from AIG, the focus of the organization can become imbalanced, with dire consequences. It gives us a look into the new corporate environment post-Enron and post-Sarbanes-Oxley, where companies can no longer be managed without interference from outside sources (government, lawyers, bureaucrats and self-motivated witch hunters like Spitzer). Such outside meddling stymies creativity and dilutes the benefits that can be derived from having talented, motivated employees.
Very interesting history of AIG. Second half of the book relates to the bailout of AIG. Read this book first and then read Good for the Money: My Fight to Pay Back American. The second book is AIG post bailout.
Hank Greenberg's history as recounted here is impressive. Personally I would have enjoyed a book this size that was all dedicated to the building of AIG, with more detail, and more fascinating stories from the early years.Nevertheless this is a vigorous and impressive defense of himself. Having not read the other more critical bio I can't speak too boldly, but I feel safe in saying that the simplistic view of Mr. Greenberg as nothing but a conniving, greedy, capitalist is a very unbalanced view considering a lifetime of incredible business accomplishments.It also makes an extremely convincing argument that the AIG distress that lead to the government bailout never would have happened had he not been forced out under pressure generated by Spitzer in 2005. I'm also convinced that he would not have needed a government bailout even if it had. He would have negotiated well for AIG and been able to tap into other options to rescue the company.He's a legendary CEO for a reason and you need the skills, connections, ingenuity, and tenacity of such a man in times of crisis.This is also an excellent read for anyone interested in international diplomacy. It provides a decent snapshot, through accounts, of how global business is closely tied to international diplomacy and national policy.
This book reads like a sequence of events without a real story arch. I don't find that much of Hank's character is really explored -- you certainly don't feel like you know what makes him tick. Rather, you hear a lot about what he did, in 1971, and 1972, and 1973, etc.If I didn't work in insurance already I don't think I'd be able to make it through this book. I read it to completion, but would not recommend it to anyone outside my field.
