I am far from surprised you found your Financial Mgmt and Mgmt Perspective textbooks easy. As you note, it is a rather less rigorous academic discipline than many. I think practically all the administrators I ever worked with in higher education had read Covey; in fact, I believe I read "7 Habits" as well but don't recall any of it.
Re: the key problem, yes indeed. "Divide and Conquer, Baby!" is, I think, one of the maxims by which the power-elite/ruling class exploits, I mean, lives by. ;-) Best of luck uniting those with common cause who are blind to it. As a side note, I feel that that is the primary reason for racism to have survived for so long, so as to divide people otherwise in similar if not identical conditions.
