Review:Both The Go-Givers and the Go-Givers Sell More, as simple as they are, made a very big impact on me. Easy reads. Can't put them down. Perfect timing for starting a new year, and planning to grow our businesses. Read more

Review:Tim Ferris has a gift for pulling ideas together and presenting them in an effective way. I recommend you browse this book rather than attempt to read it as you would read a typical book...page by page. My only problem is that I need a mind stretcher so I can fit all this good stuff into my brain. Maybe on eBay... Read more

Review:This is a superb book with an audacious goal – what can organizations and their leaders learn from other organizations like Zappos, Pixar, the New Zealand All-Blacks, the San Antonio Spurs, and SEAL Team Six, to name just a few? And if not quite scientific, the methodology Coyle employs is an objective and heartfelt search for pattern.

I admit that I bought this book with a fair amount of skepticism. Having spent four decades attempting to lead organizations in one capacity or another I h... Read more

Review:There isn't anything new in this book, it's a repackaging of ideas developed by better authors. She rips off more then half of the material and relabeled it as her ideas never crediting the original author.The story telling is weak, mostly self aggrandizement of the authors education, world travels, and positions held in prominent companies. It's a parade of self appointed awesomeness. Do yourself, and your credibility a favor by passing up on this hack. Read more

Review:Excellent writing style. The many ways of tying things together from headquarters to the team on the battlefield is unique. The methodologies are forward looking as well. After all the mistakes we have heard made, it feels good to actually know that many things went well many times. The leadership principles are really nothing new. As much time as the General talks about these principles, they area really Platoon Leaders Course 101. That is what knocks it down from 5 stars to 4 for me. Read more

Review:This book is an excellent source for research. It is well written and easy to understand. I purchased the book from Amazon as a text for my Masters program. It was about $12 less than other sites. The book doesn't disappoint. Highly recommended for fans of leadership and organizational change. One of the best leadership books I have ever read. Read more

Review:Jim Collins is at it again. Collins, along with co-author Morten Hansen and a team of over 20 researchers, spent roughly nine years trying to determine why some companies thrive during chaotic, uncertain and unstable times while other companies do not. If you have read some of Collins' earlier books, the theme in "Great by Choice" certainly won't surprise you. In "Built to Last," published in 1994, Collins, co-author Jerry Porras and their research team wrote about what makes for a "visionary... Read more

Review:I bought this book for my son who had recently had a major event in his life that impacted not only him, but his whole family including myself. I read the first two chapters before giving it to him. That was enough information to get me hooked on the book and the author's four steps for positive decision making. Also,the information about how we make decisions will either be self defeating or create success in all areas of our lives. I made a copy of his four steps and try to read them daily.... Read more

Review:I listened to the first half of this on audible hoping it was building to examples of resolution with the same detail and suspense as they present all the many no-win problems that we all encounter. They don't appear. After listening to great questions such as: "Your boss tells you he will support you in a pinch but then each time you ask for support in a pinch he doesn't return his call. Now what?" What indeed! But I've yet to hear a "here is a way to handle that situation." There is lots of me... Read more
