Instead, in this fast-reading drama that reminds me of \u003ci\u003eThe Goal\u003c\/i\u003e, the famous Goldratt novel about manufacturing, we follow the lives of two starkly different managers. Chad, the one in need of lots of people-skills learning, reminds me of the words of author\/speaker Tom Peters. Chad greets his employees every Monday morning in the coffee room--mechanically, checking off and crediting himself for each arrival. Peters once commented, 'If you don't really care about your employees, really care, you should be a management consultant, not a manager.' But Wiskup shows that managers can learn. His twelve-hour story will keep you as engrossed as watching the TV show 24. I give it five stars!\"--\u003cb\u003eBarry Render, PhD, \u003c\/b\u003e Harwood Professor of Operations Management Emeritus, Rollins College, Graduate School of Business\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"This book will make you squirm. It will make you ashamed. It will make you better. For most of us 'words' are a poor approximation of what we mean. Wiskup's day in the business life of Chad and Mike shows with crystal clarity how to speak with purpose and integrity like a real leader should.\"--Gary \u003cb\u003eHarpst\u003c\/b\u003e, founder of Six Disciplines and Solomon Software, \u003ci\u003eauthor of Six Disciplines(R) Execution Revolution\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"Mark Wiskup demonstrates, with deft clarity, precisely how our behaviors and words cause organizational success or failure.
