Getting Results: Five Absolutes for High Performance
"Getting Results hits the nail on the head! It offers concrete advice on how leaders produce sustainable results. Any leader wanting to improve performance will be well-served to use the ideas as well as the tools in this book." (Dave Ulrich, professor of business, University of Michigan)"Awesome! This book is a great tool that can assure better results within any organization. I've finally found a book that I can honestly recommend to others that provides the knowledge and the guidance to significantly improve performance. This book not only provides the tools of change required for high performance, but it provides a feasible means to achieve significant improvement by the effective leadership of both people and processes. Any business leader who is truly interested in momentous change must read this book with the intention of following its guidance through the issues. Longenecker and Simonetti show how in touch they are with the realities of the workplace of the twenty-first century and provide a specific action plan for performance improvement. Follow the exercises throughout the book and this tool becomes a business plan for improvement for any manager. This is a must read for any manager looking for better performance! This book is not just a what to do, it's a how to do it book. That's what has been missing with much of today's business improvement literature, but this book captures the insight of over two thousand high-performing managers, and their wisdom shows."
