It is a must read from every CEO and top executive." --<i>Dick Grasso, former Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, New York Stock Exchange</i> <p/>"Sticks and stones may break your bones, names will ruin your reputation, cost you jobs and contracts, and destroy your career--online they will. <i>Digital Assassination</i> represents an indispensible--and, let it be said, completely engrossing--manual of self-defense." --<i>Peter Robinson, fellow at the Hoover Institution, founder of Ricochet.com, and former speechwriter to President Reagan</i> <p/>"The Net is a reflection of everything good and bad in society, and as such has a dark side. Everyone and every organization needs to manage their reputation and protect themselves when they go online. That's the critical message of <i>Digital Assassination</i>." --<i>Don Tapscott, best selling author, most recently Grown Up Digital and Macrowikinomics</i> <p/>"Do you have a good reputation? Then be sure to protect it by reading <i>Digital Assassination </i>where the authors lay out seven ways you and your company can be irreparably harmed at the speed of a Twitter post. Knowledge is power, so pay heed to the keen and timely advice here." --Charlene Li, Author of Groundswell and Open Leadership, Founder of Altimeter Group <p/>"Torrenzano and Davis blend a compelling narrative, killer anecdotes and page-turning prose into a sober and worrying account of what happens when the darker side of human nature harnesses the connectedness and anonymity of today's web. Their Digital Assassination should be in the hands of anyone who has a good name--or a good business--to protect." --Mike Hayden, former Director, Central Intelligence Agency; former Director, National Security Agency</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>RICHARD TORRENZANO is chief executive of The Torrenzano Group, a New York strategic communications and high-stakes issues management firm that helps organizations take control of how they are perceived.
