Book Description

January 1, 2010
Many in positions of leadership feel overwhelmed because it used to be they told subordinates what to do and their subordinates did it. Not so today. Leaders are no longer managers or directors, they're considered to be coaches. Unfortunately, under this new philosophy, many on the team simply don't pull their weight--unless the team leader knows and uses the techniques shared in this book. Steps are given that when taken will form a process leaders can use to spread out the work evenly, and create a situation where everyone does a fair share. Called PROCESS BASED LEADERSHIP, this is a no nonsense way to organize and conduct business anyone can put in place to create shared responsibility throughout the organization that will in inevitably lead to getting the job done quickly and getting it done right.

5.0 out of 5 stars So Simple- so perfect, why isn't everyone doing this?, March 2, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Buried Alive! Digging Out of a Management Dumpster (Hardcover)
I was blown away. This easy-to-read book is a salvation and a demonstration that complicated problems sometimes only require simple answers. The concepts that are described reaffirm your intuition and gently challenge your comfort zone as a manager. I think that if you're willing to be open to change, the changes that are laid out within Buried Alive! are impactful and will achieve nearly immediate results. Outstanding concepts, simple to understand, easy to implement. I'm very impressed and will recommend the book to anyone who wants to improve their organization from top down or bottom up.

4.0 out of 5 stars Look beyond the story., June 16, 2008
This review is from: Buried Alive! Digging Out of a Management Dumpster (Hardcover)
I just ordered more copies for our front line supervisors. I loved the ideas taught in the book. However, the story format does not appeal to everyone. I recommend that even if you don't like the story format, that you pick this up. It is a quick read and it can change the way you look at your whole operation.
