Book Description
You are DESIGNED to choose and DEFINED by your choices.
In front of you are seven choices waiting to be made. Whether you are the leader or those being lead, these choices will determine the quality of your life and the significance of your contribution to the world in which you work.
In BOOM the Freiberg's have distilled 20 years of collective wisdom into 7 essential choices that cause culture, service, success, and business to BOOM
Choice #1: Be a Player
Choice #2: Be Accountable
Choice #3: Choose Service Over Self-Interest
Choice #4: Focus Forward
Choice #5: Play to Your Genius
Choice #6: Get It Done
Choice #7: Risk More - Gain More
These 7 choices are your wake-up call to freedom, and it's your invitation to create a community of like-minded people who - together - will create organizations that can blow the doors off business as usual and cure the Dead People Working syndrome
Drs. Kevin and Jackie Freiberg are two of the most influential voices on the professional-speaking circuit today. Their mission: to create corporate cultures where impassioned people exercise the freedom to make a difference and change the world! The Freibergs have coauthored the international bestseller NUTS! Southwest Airlines' Crazy Recipe for Business and Personal Success and GUTS! Companies that Blow the Doors off Business-As-Usual. They have been interviewed by CBS's 60 Minutes and appeared on CNBC and the CBS Morning News for their insights on the links between gutsy leaders, passionate employees, cultures of accountability, and loyal customers.
About The Author
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I have long admired Kevin and Jackie Freiberg -- they are gifted business writers and speakers. If you haven't seen them in person, then you should make a point of doing so the next time they're in town. This particular book -- Boom! -- is different from many business books of this type in that Kevin and Jackie take off the gloves and really tell it like it is. Boom! is NOT politically correct, and the Freibergs don't beat around the bush. Their mission is to fight the growing epidemic of Dead People Working -- you know, those men and women in many businesses who have mentally checked out long ago, but who still come to work to be sure they get that regular paycheck. The Freiberg's antidote is a mix of inspirational stories of people who are fully engaged in the work that they do (people like ski instructor/amputee Kim Francom, and the Dancing Cop, Tony Lepore) along with a series of seven prescriptions (called "Choices") for becoming indispensable on the job. These choices include such things as "Be a player, not a bystander" and "Choose service over self-interest." Long story short, Kevin and Jackie Freiberg have written an engaging book that is certain to forever change your work life -- and perhaps even your personal life -- for the better. Highly recommended.
