The 800-CEO-READ Bestsellers of 2012

December 31, 2012

The 800-CEO-READ Bestsellers of 2012

Filed under: Bestsellers — 800-CEO-READ @ 11:41 am
We move a whole lot of business books around the world from our humble offices here in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Each and every month, we compile our sales numbers and release a bestseller list to recognize the books that are heading out to businesspeople, business schools, and entrepreneurs to help spread ideas, solve problems, promote change, and inspire leadership in the business community. We’ve now compiled those numbers for the entire year, giving weight to both total sales numbers and how long each book stayed on the list (and at what number) and are happy to announce
the bestsellers of 2012.

Global Process Awards - deadline approaches

If you have a process/performance story to tell here is the opportunity. 

The BP Group regard this as the currently best forum for sharing the stories of your projects, the learnings, the "I wouldn't do this if I was starting over again" insights.

In 2012 I was privileged to watch the success of the US Navy Seals delivering massive successful change in a very traditional organization. Or the UK's Bolton NHS saving hearts and minds. Or even SIngapore government transforming their business. What about PolyOne and their Lean Outside In success?
 
Get your feet on the deck and share also - deadline looms......
