"I was struck by the simplicity supplemented by the need for continuous reinforcement (duh!). To continue the metaphor .. I already work in the heat of the kitchen and look forward to preparing some delicious dishes which will prompt my customers to send their compliments to the chef. Congrats on a great book." - Nigel Edwards, Pfizer
"This is no ordinary business book...great for dipping in and out of when you have a spare minute, I'd recommend it to anyone in business, as it is easy to read and full of great ideas." Money, February 2003

If you're prepared for provocative questions, looking for new insights into old issues and you want practical solutions to changing the "way things work round here" then try some of Kevin Thomson's recipes.
The content's rich - too rich to take in all at one time. I found it most digestible by reading an individual section that's particularly interesting or relevant to me and then putting the book down. Or try some of the 'exercises' - with your colleagues or team - like the "shapes and shades" technique on page 156. You'll never think about yourself, and your colleagues, the same way again!

A Cornucopia of Ideas.
24 Aug 2002
Format:Hardcover
YES! At last, a management book that is very informative and fun to read! The colour pictures are a great idea, one on every other page, each one matches the "recipe" or idea. They add a fresh and memorable way to remember the topics. The "menus" and "Chefs notes" make it quick and easy to understand, especially with my hectic lifestyle! Although seemingly aimed at "executives" and Human Resouces, the book is valuable to everyone. "Internal" marketing makes a lot of sense and this helps how to approach it.
I found that even though it reads in sequence, you can pick any chapter, read and understand it.
The trick will be to get the books ideas across for all to get the "buy in" that is required to change the culture.
Excuse the pun but the book gives a lot of food for thought!

The right recipes
4 Oct 2002
Format:Hardcover
The Company Culture Cookbook is one of those books that you should keep handy and refer to whenever you feel lost: if there is no recipe for your exact problem, I'm sure you will at least find inspiration and strength to deal with it.
