Summary: This book will change the way you think
Review: This book will change the way you think. If you work for a company, knowing the contents of this book will make you virtually indispensable as a problem solver at meetings. If you run a company, knowing what this book teaches spells the difference between making it big and barely getting by. If you want to land more consulting assignments in areas where you are not the expert, this book can help you expand your practice by teaching you how to use the client's expertise in helping them solve their own problems. That's the good news.The bad news is that this book is not a quick read. This is a book you have to study and think about. It is a painstaking "how to" reference guide. Well written. Thorough. And it works. I used it successfully with clients, and the results were impressive. And the clients were pleased. The author should consider writing a field book to support this book's use as an aid for consultants interested in expanding their practice into "participative process" consulting. This book belongs in the library of every manager, executive and consultant. Unlike the "pop" management books of today where a quick read tells you everything, The Thinking Manager's Toolbox is one book you will refer to again and again.
