5.0 out of 5 stars Great for use with employees
This book presents its material in such a straight-forward, usable manner that I decided to have all my employees read it. Because the book itself is like attending a seminar, everyone got to see how the ideas in it could be applied to their particular job.

1.0 out of 5 stars Lots of promises, but few answers. Shockingly simplistic.
If you want a science fiction writer's imaginary view of business, buy this book. If you are already in Scientology, and want to drive up the sales numbers, buy this book. If you want puffed up boasts with little substance, buy this book.

Like every Scientology book, this book contains more hype than reality. Even though the publishers claim it's "The...

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for use with employees, December 3, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Speaking from Experience: Illustrated Solutions to the Business Problems You Face Everyday (Hardcover)
This book presents its material in such a straight-forward, usable manner that I decided to have all my employees read it. Because the book itself is like attending a seminar, everyone got to see how the ideas in it could be applied to their particular job. The result was a really improved attitude toward their jobs and toward my business, for which I am very grateful. Now we are all using these "Hubbard" principles to grow the business. The ideas in this book can be applied by anyone from the janitor to the CEO!

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly workable system of business management, February 22, 2001
By 
R245 (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Speaking from Experience: Illustrated Solutions to the Business Problems You Face Everyday (Hardcover)
The information in this book is incrediable. It is very clearly written, and introduces you to a system of management that anyone can understand and apply. I have been able to take a one-person home-based business to a very successful 20-person business. The principles in this book enabled me to effectively organize my business so that I can get the maximum amount of production out of the minimum amount of resources. There are a lot of books and tapes avaialble on business know-how and management skills. A lot of it is interesting and it is easy to get lost in. What I liked about this book is that it introduces you to a system of administration and management that is nothing if not simple, immediately applicable, and soundly based on logic, common sense and evidently natural law. I highly recommend it to anyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful in company coordination, June 5, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Speaking from Experience: Illustrated Solutions to the Business Problems You Face Everyday (Hardcover)
This book has been adopted as a basic staff orientation manual in the company I work for. It truly helps in gaining understanding the organizational structure and principles of doing business employed by this company. This has been helpful in gaining coordination among staff in the various departments. It iv most valuable for the staff to recognize that we each contribute products which add up to the whole company product

5.0 out of 5 stars Real solutions that work!, May 14, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Speaking from Experience: Illustrated Solutions to the Business Problems You Face Everyday (Hardcover)
This book provides real workable answers to business management problems, in a day and age when other books give only gimicks or " systems" that just don't work. Hubbard's methods on management are now used by over 76,000 businesses worldwide and reading this book, you can see why. Great for finding answers to common problems, and for training staff.

5.0 out of 5 stars Separates the Wheat from the Chaff, June 7, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Speaking from Experience: Illustrated Solutions to the Business Problems You Face Everyday (Hardcover)
I've read dozens of business management books and for the most part, they are complex or give advice that can only be applied in very, very specific situations. "Speaking from Experience" contained tools that are applicable to virtually any size business and can be used by everyone on board. It's nice to see a book that can be USED and that will help businesses move up the line

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Organizational Wisdom, July 24, 2000
This review is from: Speaking from Experience: Illustrated Solutions to the Business Problems You Face Everyday (Hardcover)
I found this book to be a true gem of organizational wisdom. The book is filled with very clear illustrations that makes it an immediate useful tool for both business owner and employee. The basics of organization delivered in this book can be directly applied to any business or activity one is trying to organize. There is excellent tools on finance and solvency as well that makes this a well rounded text for any business owner. To anyone interested in starting a new activity or enhancing an existing one, or just getting a better understanding of how to organize and efficiently run a group, this is the book for you. You will learn to use and understand such incredible tools at 'The Scale of Administration', 'Management by Statistics' and contoling 'Developed Traffic'. 'Speaking from Experience' is a treasure chest of new perspectives on management for anyone to use. A definite key reference text for anyone's library that wants to succeed. I highly recommend it.

This review is from: Speaking from Experience: Illustrated Solutions to the Business Problems You Face Everyday (Hardcover)
The information in this book is wonderful & can be used in any business. I love the way the book is put together. It's easy to read, then put to use in your business. I've owned my own business in the same trade for 40 years due to this technology. I'm happy to see someone making it available for everyone. Any business owner, manager or personnel officer can use this to train employees. It really works.Speaking from Experience: Illustrated Solutions to the Business Problems You Face Everyday
