Rating: Summary: Effective and soul-satisfying decision-making Review: Don's practical experience shines through his ability to share the excellent process delineated in this book. I hope there will be a sequel with stories detailing how the process worked -- step-by-step -- for the many organizations, businesses, groups, and individuals who will put these steps into practice.
Rating: Summary: How Great Decisions Get Made Review: I have had the pleasure of working with Don Maruska in two different organizations. In person, as in his new book, Don's message is positive and powerful. He challenges you to a new way of thinking, one that truly causes creative change. Through this book you can become an "agent of hope" working with your fellow employees.
Rating: Summary: a practical guide for life Review: I think Don's work is one of the most useful "life affirming tools" I have encountered in my 35 year career. It is useful not only in business, but also in family life with spouse and children. I highly recommend his book and methodology to all who want to simplify their life but also be responsible for their actions. I loved it!
Rating: Summary: A Must Read! Review: This book is a must read whether you make decisions as a family, in a corporate setting or in a community group.The books 10 easy steps of reaching agreement offers a fabulous methodology that helps groups attain their intended results. As an attorney and a businessperson, I have experienced failed efforts at conflict resolution. The existing system of dispute resolution is often more about winning and losing, then about resolving conflicts. Many a disagreement could have been resolved with the approach offered in this book. Rather then having only winners and losers - How Great Decisions Get Made offers a way to create winning solutions for all the parties. Similarly in business and personal negotiations people get pulled off their agendas and miss the boat - this book helps you stay focused by providing a process that enables and empowers the participants and supports a result that works for everybody. This exceptionally well written book offers a new and exciting way to successfully produce positive and effective outcomes when we need to reach agreements and we want to make great decisions.
