Описание книги

Stop chasing hot trends and start driving real growth It's Not Rocket Science blasts through the trends and false promises permeating the business world to help you and your company get back to basics and get things done. Why doggedly pursue the "next big thing" when the most effective drivers of growth are right under your nose? This book asserts that you've already heard, been taught, and know well the key fundamentals that spell business success, and presents a compelling, four strategy blueprint for returning your business culture and strategies to a rock solid foundation of execution excellence. Each chapter opens with The Challenge, which outlines a current condition that exists due to a departure from common sense behaviors, and tasks you with following the appropriate execution principles to get your business on the right track. After a thorough explanation of "what" and "why," each chapter gives you the actionable "how" so you can implement these valuable steps and master the art of execution in your organization. Shifting sands do not make for a sustainable structure. If your organization is to be robust and strong enough to weather any storm, the strength must come from the very core; the ability for each member of your team to execute daily and effectively towards your organization's most compelling goals. Frankly, the last things most organizations need is another goal they'll miss because they can't execute well. This book reminds you of the four timeless execution methods and strategies that have proven themselves over centuries, and shows you how they are implemented in today's business environment. Get the leaders right Get the culture right Get the people right Get the process right Today's flash in the pan may be superficially intriguing, but is it really that much different from yesterday's "hot tip"? Fundamentals are fundamental for a reason, and It's Not Rocket Science is the common sense guide to putting away flavor-of-the-month toys and getting down to business.

Отрывок из книги

• A huge thanks goes to my LearnToLead team for picking up the slack for me while I focused on completing this book on time, and for continuing to grow our company at a pace that defies logic.

• Special thanks goes to my wife, Rhonda, and daughter, Ashley, for their support and encouragement throughout the process. You two are amazing teammates in life and business.

This is one of a leader's primary responsibilities. In fact, if the culture doesn't support the goals and the execution process to attain them, failure is all but certain. This part lays out specific and practical steps to evaluate, build, strengthen, and protect your culture. You won't look at culture the same way after reading this part, and you're likely to approach your obligation to shape and strengthen it far differently than you do now.

Regardless of how talented a leader is, how strong the culture is, or how stellar the execution process may be, he or she can't achieve greatness alone. This part presents highly effective strategies for attracting, evaluating, developing, and retaining great people – strategies for building a stronger and better team.
