Reception

In reviewing The Cynical Americans, Choice questioned "the nature of the evidentiary framework and the absence of longitudinal trends" presented, but noted that that concern did not weaken "the authors' premise of historical cycles or their very useful chapters on mechanisms to reduce worker cynicism". [1] Choice recommended Building the Competitive Workforce, for which Mirvis provided the opening and closing chapters, for "advanced undergraduate through professional collections". [19] They described Beyond Good Company as "thoroughly researched", and recommended it highly. [3]

John Elkington, originator of the triple bottom line, described the authors of Beyond Good Company as "a supergroup in their field". [20]
