Summary: Same old material
Review: "Stop Whining" is the same old management book with a different cover and title. I bought it to get some new material, but there is nothing here that hasn't been written before. The entire book revolves around one point: treat others (employees and customers) like you would want to be treated. A vital concept but hardly original. The author is smart using todays hot business buzz word, "passion" in the title, however this material has little spark. The title caught my interest, but having invested money and time into this book leaves me feeling short-changed. As a reader I want fresh ideas not redundant material.

Summary: Thanks, Frank!
Review: I had the privilege of attending one of Frank Pacetta's presentations last month and enjoyed it so much that I bought his latest book. His passion and no-nonsense style has really inspired me to help in eliminating the "ho hum" in our organization or move on to a place that has that "passionate attachment" towards its employees. Thanks for a great book Frank!

Summary: I stopped whining and started winning!
Review: I own this book and it's very motivational and yet is not only focusing on the motivation aspect of the workplace. It deals with many issues and shows you how to tackle them head on! I'm purchasing the audio book version of this because I want to share this with my co-workers who keep putting it off saying that they don't have time. I would definately make time for this book as it has helped me in many ways to improve my management style.

Summary: Start Winning
Review: I'm a sales trainer and, from a calloused standpoint, don't believe that there is anything really, really new in the world of sales. What's left is the ability or strategy of finding your passion and setting or staying on a course of success. I believe Frank Pacetta is all about that. I've had the pleasure of meeting Frank and his family and can attest to the fact that this man "walks his talk"! As he says, if you're spending a little too long in the shower or can't read this book, you need a change!

Summary: Great Book! But has anyone noticed...?
Review: Pacetta's book is a real winner! Of course there is nothing new in the area of sales, motivation, or inspiration. What is new is the way it is all arranged. And Pacetta arranges his material with wit, honesty, humor, and a blatant attack on the basics. Back to basics is what every professional needs. We get so caught up with our careers and lives, that we stray from the basics; the basics of business, customer relations, employee development, etc. I read this book from cover to cover and loved every page. BUT, did anyone else notice all the typo's? I have never read a book with so many typo's and grammatical errors. It got to the point where it was humorous. Several in each chapter... but it was still a great book and worth every penny. It is especially a must read for those in top level management!
