Book Description
70% of change programs fail to achieve their goals. Furthermore, according to numerous business research articles, most management-inspired improvement and cost-saving initiatives waste time and money and de-motivate employees. MATT POLASKI and his band of unsung maintenance engineering heroes are nearly burn-out, trapped in the ‘circle of despair’ at the Mornington Dairy Plant. Instead of continuing to patch one breakdown after another, they propose a reliability improvement project to improve plant performance and their mental well-being. Matt realizes his marriage may even survive if they are successful. JIM CHAMPION, Mornington’s Site Manager, also wants to improve performance, but he can’t wait as long as Matt’s plan requires. Jim’s approach leads to a temporary improvement followed by a major catastrophe.

Citizen Perot
Author: Gerald L. Posner
Publisher: Random House (NY)
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
Ross Perot, for all that has been said and written about him, remains something of an enigma. The images presented of his life are often in conflict. Is he a heroic businessman who risked his life to rescue two of his kidnapped workers from revolutionary Iran, or a callous executive who ran roughshod over his employees and investigated the company's senior officers? A brilliant strategist who built a multibillion-dollar empire with an innovative idea in computers, or someone cunning enough to take advantage of government programs and milk an unfair profit? A superpatriot who underwrote his own missions to Southeast Asia to help the plight of the POWs and MIAs, or a secretive billionaire who was engrossed in far-flung conspiracy theories about the CIA and the international narcotics trade? The result of two years of meticulous research, and based on hundreds of new interviews and documents Citizen Perot strips away the mythology and unmasks the real Ross Perot for the first time. This groundbreaking book discloses the inside story of how Perot made his fortune; uncovers the tremendous influence he wielded with different presidents; presents the complete saga of his rescue mission from Iran; exposes the private wars he waged against government officials and business competitors he considered corrupt; explains the secret battles that created animosity with George Bush; and, finally, reveals what was behind Perot's unusual charges of Republican dirty tricks in the 1992 campaign. At the heart of this investigation is Perot himself. Based in part on Perot's own unprecedented cooperation with author Gerald Posner, this book narrates a life that is rich in detail and unique for what ithas attempted and accomplished. Studying Perot from his childhood to his current effort to create a third political party, Posner delivers an exhaustive inspection that cuts through years of misinformation and distortions to lay bare Perot's accumulation and use of power. In the process, it answers the perplexing question of what motivates Perot. It also shows whether he has the temperament and personality to be an effective president. Citizen Perot is an absorbing examination of a man who has become an American icon.

Book Description
BOHICA: Bend Over! Here It Comes Again Did you like reading "Chicken Soup for the Soul"? If you did, you are in for more insight and zeal for the tapestry of life as you read this remarkable book. Years ago, a Western tourist decided to visit the old monk who sat atop a Tibetan mountain. It took days of hard climbing to reach the summit where he would be permitted to ask one question of the old wise man. Gasping for breath in the thin atmosphere, he asked, "Master, what is the secret of true happiness?" The old man calmly answered as if he had heard the same question a million times. "Avoid becoming too involved in your own life?" BOHICA is this author's musings on an old saying, "Bend over! Here it comes again." Originally it referred to ducking beneath a swinging boom on a sailboat. The author has applied it to the cycle of events that are so common in our busy lives. Using wit and humor, you may well learn things in these pages that are very personal to your own life. Why? Because some of the stories are like mirrors that show us more about who we are as human beings. In BOHICA: Bend Over! Here It Comes Again, you will experience heart touching glimpses into the best and worst moments of life. These stories and reflections will soon cause you to explore what you really believe and why. Let's face it. Some of what we believe is ridiculous, but not until we put it into words or try to explain it to someone else. Your values are at the heart of your identity, so this book will help you discover something about who you really are - often with laughter but sometimes with sentimental tears.For example, there are some profound truths that only seem to emerge from those who have fallen into addiction and despair. Yet, there is some of the most hilarious joy that overflows from the journey out of that emotional prison. Sometimes, you can almost get a hernia from laughing at short, humorous thoughts that are just too close to the truth. Perhaps the ability to laugh at yourself is the most important step toward emotional wholeness and recovery from the traumatic circumstances of life.
