Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. This copy feels unread and has a laid in letter from the Managing Director. Little would two Dunedin men have known, as they grittily tackled the odd contracting job to get them through the Depression years, where their efforts would lead. In 75 years Fulton Hogan has prospered and grown to join the ranks of new Zaland's 20 largest companies. If Fulton Hogan is known for anything, it is for its propensity to work away from the spotlight. New Zealanders, so accustomed to the sight of Fulton Hogan people and their lagoon blue vehicles at work on the roads, can at last access the inside story of how this company came to be the highly accomplished infrastructure builder it is today."Doing it right" was primarily written for Fulton Hogan shareholders and staff, but everyone is invited to enjoy this candidly-told story. It tells of the determination of a small cohort of ordinary Kiwis to build a great business, and it offers all the elements of a great yarn: bold initiatives, costly mistakes, canny innovations and above all a willingness to pursue opportuniites wherever they arose -- all with a good lashing of humour stirred in (TM).
