5.0 out of 5 stars Step-by-step format to deal with change and related issues., January 22, 1999

This review is from: Leadership When the Heat's on (Paperback)

Anyone can lead a company through calm waters. The challenge presented to managers today is how to lead in times of uncertainty. Practical information on how to deal with morale issues, teambuilding, goal setting, and increased productivity especially during times of change.This book provides checklists, resources, and a wealth of information for managers, employees, trainers, and human resource professionals. I've given several copies as "gifts" (as people who have requested to borrow the book never returned it). A must have resource to keep sanity in an ever-changing world.

3.0 out of 5 stars Leadership When the Heats on, February 8, 2000

By 

Rohan Allwood (Springfield, Missouri) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Leadership When the Heat's on (Hardcover)

After reading the book Leadership When the Heat Is on, I have found a new admiration of the people who move towards the field of leadership and being a leader. The writer, Danny Cox basically wrote about his experiences in the field of becoming a leader to a group of people in the sales process. The writer mentions problems on how and why these problems came about. The book over all is about common sense in the viewpoint of a person who has experienced it first hand. This book was something that people should read to grasp a better idea of what to expect out of a person who is responsible for others below them in a business setting. The people who are having troubles in getting to know the people that they work with and to get those people to work should read this book.
