Description
The idea of this book is to give you something to keep with you, to share with colleagues, but overall as a reminder of how to win in a tough environment.
Like all winners, I like ideas to be practical and easy to use. I also enjoy things that make me think and sometimes touch on raw nerves.
We all need prompts and a catalyst to start or continue to do things that make a difference.
“Inches make a champion”
This book is about "The Business of Winning – it’s a game of inches."
