First Break all the Rules

In England if you can't play by the rules, you could be hung, drawn and quartered.

The book for this week was FIRST, BREAK ALL THE RULES by Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman. Yes, it is non-fiction, but being in management means you have to be serious some of the time. Marcus and Curt studied the practices of really great managers and came up with steps to make each employee the best they can be.

"People don't change that much.

Don't waste time trying to put in what was left out.

Try to draw out what was left in.

That is hard enough."
