Performance Breakthrough: The Four Secrets of Passionate Organizations

How do you know if you have a passionate workforce? * You are not crushed by the stampede out the door at 5:00 p.m. * Team members offer their help without being asked. * Team members offer their ideas without being asked. * Team members find ways to get the job done; not excuses for why they can't. * Internal celebration replaces internal competition. * Customer loyalty replaces customer satisfaction. Imagine the impact of injecting more passion into your team. Imagine a company where 8 out of 10 people were truly engaged. What would this mean to your teams' productivity, morale, retention, and ability to recruit? Studies show that only 29% of employees are truly engaged in the work they do. That means 71% of your employees are trying their best just to "get through the day". It also means they would probably not think twice before leaving for a better (or maybe just different) opportunity. This book contains the answers to the challenges of creating a more passionate, productive and profitable organization.

5Performance Breakthrough  Jun 15, 2009
By VR
Performance Breakthrough is a definite must read. This book distinguishes itself from the ubiquitous management tome which is high on theory and often does not meet the hurdle of having practical applicability. It's clear that this book has been written by a practitioner and has clear actionable steps for the reader. There are personal anecdotes woven throughout the book which make for a engaging read that will have the reader coming back to reread specific sections as warranted by changing personal situations.

5Read it.....DO IT.....Share it.......  Jul 14, 2010
By EJ Davis
This dynamic little book really packs a big punch. I just can't stop thinking about the "4 secrets" and am doing my best to implement them into my daily life at work and at home. His writing style makes it an easy and enjoyable read, not like your typical "management consulting" rant. Also, I had the opportunity to see Mike do his thing at a small seminar recently....if you get the opportunity to see him speak...don't miss it!

5ALL MANAGERS SHOULD READ THIS BOOK  Jul 14, 2010
By Jon K
Easy and quick to read with very valuable information to anyone who spends most of their business day managing people. I wish many of my old bosses had read it and practiced its lessons. If they did they would have had more productive and happy employees.

5A must read  Feb 17, 2010
By Lou S.
I was very fortunate to attend an event where Mike spoke. That same passion and energy he demonstrates in person is very present in this book. Leadership opportunities and qualities show themselves in ones personal and professional life. This book highlights this and shows how goals can be accomplished with a positive attitude and a commitment to focusing on strengths. Mike provides a simple and practical approach on leadership which just seems to stay with you after reading the book.
