Excellent!
This book is great.

Our managers are required to read several management books each year. Monday Morning Leadership is the best I have read - by far. The book has a great combination - the least number of pages combined with the most useful information- of any of the books we have read. No fluff- or bulla bulla as Tony would say - just good stuff that I can actually use.

Buy the book. I am sure you will enjoy the journey with Jeff and Tony.

Terrific Book - Need more stars to rate it!
I was skeptical when this book came across my desk. Another promotional piece, I thought. This time I was wrong.

Monday Morning Leadership is the best book I have read in a long time. The principles outlined in the book are timeless and apply to all areas of my life. Drivers and Passengers, Keep the Main Thing the Main Thing, Buckets and Dippers ... very creative and clever chapter titles but more importantly the principles are true. I even enjoyed the audio tape, especially where the author gave the story behind the stories.

Really good stuff in this short book. I recommend it highly.

Applicable to All Managers
Was given this book to read from our company president. Boy, am I glad he did. I've read many Leadership/Management books in years past, and often they repeat themselves with best practices like, "People are your greatest assets" or "Communication is most important". While Monday Morning Leadership is not immune to dipping into these best practices, the book takes it a step further by telling a story of a mentor and mentee, and how implementing best practices had an impact on his organization. 8 lessons are provided and what stuck out for me was the key tips for managing Meeting time more effectively along with the root cause analysis of what really are important factors for departments/companies/employees. The book is a lunch-time read (95 pgs.) so it makes it easy for each lesson to digest throughout the days ahead.
