Leadership The Barack Obama Way. Make Change Happen.Shel Leanne.
Leadership The Barack Obama Way. Make Change Happen.Lessons on team building and creating a winning culture in challenging timesShel Leanne. 2010. ISBN 9780071664028. This is a thoroughly researched book. If you, like me, wondered how Obama seemed to sweep his way to the top so quickly, you will want to read this book. Dr. Leanne has looked at Obama’s history, background and the systems he put in place over the years. What we learn is fascinating. Obama is likely a singular leader for our time who truly understands how to release the talents of those around him. If you aspire to lead or have it thrust upon you, this is a very useful book. A great coast to coast read, it flows very well. You just may become a fan.

Dear Reg,
I really appreciate your site. Thank you for your insights and guidance.
In the midst of the financial crisis, there’s a lot of bashing and cynicism
towards performance recognition and inspirational efforts in the workplace.
Just check any bar in lower Manhattan! It’s a shame.
As a VP leading over 100 salespeople, I’ve found that the hard fact
is that QUALITY performance recognition works. Not just for morale,
but in dollars. I have been using a couple of different tools to help me retain
good people and to inspire excellence in them, which = larger sales figures.
A#1 tool is a personal, elegant recognition concept called Design Your
Inspiration ( http://www.dyi.successories.com ) . Intelligent, customizable with
any words or great quotes you want to use (such as those on this very site).
All on framed art photography prints.
Again, the quality of these, and the MEANING emparted, makes them
highly effective for me. It has made an amazing difference! So while the
cynics shed tears in their beers, we’re laughing all the way to the bank!
Thanks again. Jim
