Playing for Keeps is a Winner
We implemented a values-based approach to managing at my company several years ago. Now we are looking to renew and re-energize around our values. In this regard, Frederick Harmon's book Playing for Keeps has come in handy. The only drawback is that it came out in 1996 and is now dated in some respects. So much has happened in the past year, with 9-11 and the collapse of Enron, Worldcom, Arthur Andersen and others. Yet the topic is still very timely and he offers a lot of good ideas.
If only there were a new edition with material to catch up on the new landscape.
By the way, I ordered this book "used" through National Book Exchange and it arrived promptly and in good condition! Thanks NBE!
