Pursuing Excellence

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"While many of the '20 Bad Habits' are likely present in companies trying to move up from average, surely habit No 13, 'Clinging to the Past' is one of the larger detractors keeping many of them from moving closer to excellence."

- Marshall Goldsmith, #1 Leadership Thinker and best-selling author of What Got You Here Won't Get You There

"Many people claim to be Lean experts. Most of them aren't. Pursuing Excellence won't teach you improved methods for Lean. But it will help you understand the bigger picture holding us back from transformational improvement."

-- Shelley Gilliland, VP Operational Excellence, Leonardo DRS

"To effectively lead people through tough times, leaders must create and apply a solid framework and strategy. Many speak of excellence, yet few can describe it, let alone lead people to achieve it. Strobel's book provides leaders with the essential knowledge to accomplish this."

-- Scott Shaffar, PHD, ME Design Program Leader, San Diego State University

"Brian Strobel has lived and breathed operational excellence as a leader in both frontline fighter squadrons and in the corporate world. He is a master practitioner, who deeply understands the human element of driving exceptional performance."

-- Matthew Leach, Partner, Boston Consulting Group

"I'm pleased to see application of the Competing Values Framework continually expanded to help leaders interpret and understand their organizations. Pursuing Excellence deftly uses the framework to provide leaders insight to how they can move their companies from average to excellent."

-- Robert Quinn, PhD, Competing Values Framework Co-Developer
