| Summary: | "Fixing the House shares former CFO of the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development's lessons in management through the story of how he transformed the HUD's weak financial infrastructure in only a matter of years.

Barriers to success. Making it sustainable upon a change in administration. Differences between the private-sector and government"-- |
