Why isn't this book a best seller? Someone dropped the ball on marketing this one!,
This review is from: The Progress Challenge : Working and Winning in a World of Change (Hardcover)
This book is so 'right now'. Sure wish more people knew about it. Dean Lindsay's concepts on the Rise of Progress Leadership are powerful and refreshing. Be Progress and get this book (and to the publisher of this book, this book could be HUGE - get with it).

This is a must read.,
By Edward Rosenbaum "Ed Rosenbaum, The Customer ... (Tamarac, Florida) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Progress Challenge : Working and Winning in a World of Change (Hardcover)
"I first met Dean Lindsay when he was a keynote speaker at a conference I attended in November. I was challenged by his presentation and instantly believed I could learn something from this man and his work. I have completed the first reading and can tell you my hi-liter worked overtime. I am beginning the second reading as I believe one has to internalize something as key to your potential success as this book. The only way to do that is to read, study and review. I have been in contact with the author and have met with him to get a deeper understanding of his work and then inplement it into mine. These meetings have shown me Dean Lindsay knows his stuff. He freely helps others "get it". I will not let you in on any "secrets". You need to do that yourself. It is a journey worth the price of the ticket."
