...working-class city - Flint, Mich., for Moore; Parkersburg, W. Va, for Spurlock - whose hard economic history has produced low median incomes.

...look for wash-day miracles, not management revolutionaries. Yet A.G. Lafley, CEO since 2000, proved otherwise. He drove relentless change at the famous but once flailing company. In The Game-Changer, written with management guru Ram Charan, Lafley explains how P&G flourished by organizing around customer-driven innovation. He talked with TIME's Bill Saporito...
