5.0 out of 5 stars Contractors: Doing It Right Not Just Getting It Done
Mel's quick-read style is helpful for the busy contractor to capitalize on her insights and understanding of what takes a construction company from good to great. Her extensive case studies show the practical application of her knowledge. This useful guide will shine a light on why a contractor needs to understand there is more to being successful than meets the eye.

2.0 out of 5 stars Review of Contractors: Doing it right not just getting it done
This book was average. Mel hits some good points but it is not very in depth. At aoubt 90 big font pages, it's a quick read, but there's nothing you
won't find for free on the internet. Not a very good value for the price.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Doing It Right" is RIGHT ON!, March 17, 2010
By 
This review is from: CONTRACTORS: Doing it Right Not Just Getting it Done: Companies with Culture-Driven Brands (Paperback)
Contractors: Doing it Right Not Just Getting It Done is a quick read full of insights from Mel DePaoli's in-depth research of 30 construction companies. What perfect timing for this book to appear as this industry starts to recover from the deepest recession since the 1930's. Companies profiled in the book reinforce the premise that culture makes a huge difference in their ability to succeed. Case studies suggest practical ways companies have implemented change, empowered employees (members of their "tribe") and built loyalty with their clients.

A favorite feature - the last chapter lists the key points from all previous chapters.

I'm buying this book for all my clients in the construction industry!
