Reviews / Votes
This is one fish story that doesn't exaggerate. It shows you how changing your attitude lets you enjoy your work and your life. Hook into it, it's quite a catch! - Spencer Johnson, author of Who Moved My Cheese?I recommend their book to anyone, on any level, who wants to make a difference at work. - Hyrum Smith, co-chairman Franklin Covey Co.
The story of the world famous Pike Place Fish market is fantastic. But this book is not just about selling fish; it's a love story that can happen in your organisation too. - Ken Blanchard, from the Foreword
