Cal's narrative is at its heart a fatherson story, from his childhood in Scottsville, Kentucky, where business and family were one, to the triumph of reaching the Fortune 300 at the cost of risking that very father/son relationship. Cal shares how the smalltown values with which he was raised helped him guide Dollar General from family enterprise to national powerhouse.Chronicling three generations of a successful family with very different leadership styles, Cal Jr. shares a wealth of wisdom from a lifetime on the entrepreneurial front lines. He shows how his grandfather turned a thirdgrade education into an asset for success. He reveals how his driven father hatched the gamechanging dollar price point strategy and why it worked. And he explains how he found his own leadership style when he took his place at the helm valuesbased, peopleoriented, and pragmatic. Cal's story provides a riveting look at the family love and drama behind Dollar General's spectacular rise, pays homage to the workingclass people whose nofrills needs helped determine its rockbottom prices, and shares the life and lessons of one of America's most compelling business leaders.
