Summary Annotation Tough Calls is an insider's account of the turmoil AT&T experienced during the dot-com bust. Unblinkingly honest, the book recounts how one of the world's biggest and best companies became one of its most battered-and explains how others can avoid the same fate. At turns funny and sober, this cautionary tale is also a handbook in navigating corporate and public interests. Its lessons range from practical advice in managing public relations to a principled guide in corporate governance. The author shows how events from AT&T's recent history demonstrate the outsized influence of small groups with big interests, the dangers of hardball PR and the defining power of clear purpose.
