Customer Reviews

A message I needed in a form that I enjoyed!

If you want something that is a GOOD READ, but full of really useful information and advice about how to really get things done in the pressured work environment of today, Crisis in Santa's Workshop is a book you'll want to own.All the way through I was following a manager, a lot like me: conscientious but overwhelmed, knowing he had a huge job to do (what could be more pressure and time sensitive than toys going out in time for Christmas?), and now being able to just do it all himself. I had to keep reading to find out what he was going to do. I'd like my whole work team to read this book.This book is a follow- up to Managers as Facilitators, a book I very much enjoyed, but done in a fun business fable format. Good book!

End Power Struggles at Work!

I have been looking for a book that will convince my organization to include more people in making important decisions and put an end to unproductive power struggles. This is it! My thanks to the authors. I am looking forward to applying their facilitation process in my work. I intend to give this book to every member of my team.
