Summary
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
‘A radical book that speaks out accessibly’ BONO
‘Indispensable … This is the essential handbook’ CHRISTINE LAGARDE
‘A remarkably good read’ GILLIAN TETT, Financial Times
‘A landmark achievement’ WILL HUTTON, Observer
This is a pivotal moment in our economy. With the markets in free-fall, financial challenges are growing for us all. A winter of inflation and spiralling energy costs looms. But it doesn’t have to be this way. As former Governor for the Bank of England Mark Carney said to the BBC: ‘The message from the financial markets is there’s a limit to unfunded spending and unfunded tax cuts in this environment.’
His book is essential reading for today’s economic crisis and provides answers to your questions as well as solutions for the future.
In Value(s), Carney offers a roadmap out of this chaos and towards a better, fairer society. This moment could be an opportunity for change, for overhaul. We cannot go on as we have, something must change. Drawing on a truly international perspective, this book offers a blueprint for how we can channel the dynamism of the market to transform intractable global problems into opportunities. And in so doing build a better world for all.
Read as one of the great global thinkers of our time examines how what we value has become misaligned and how we can rethink and rebuild before it is too late.

My only point of disagreement was on Bitcoin other than that he covers a-lot of very interesting topics and discusses how things will be rapidly changing I strongly agree with him on how this industrial revolution will be bigger than the previous ones and will affect more livelihoods.
Definitely not a failed 2nd Tier Banker

Those from outside the financial profession (like me) will likely find a few parts less valuable, but nevertheless the writing style won't leave you behind.
Chapters 12 "breaking the tragedy of the horizon" & 13 "values based leadership" were the cream of the crop for me, and I am left with a great clarity of thought regarding my own professional challenges.
Carney does struggle at a few points in the actual reading of the text, with word fumbles here and there, but don't let that put you off for a second.
Essential reading for professionals everywhere
