From AudioFile

[Editor's Note: The following is a combined review with TEACHING THE ELEPHANT TO DANCE.]--In these companion audiobooks, Belasco offers practical solutions to managing change and empowering employees in any organization. His authoritative yet personal tone is stimulating and encouraging. Using animal analogies such as shackled elephants and loyal-to-the-leader buffaloes to represent outmoded management styles, these audiobooks are paced like the gazelle Belasco refers to as the leadership style most likely to succeed. Quick and ever-changing, the gazelle doesn't wait for trouble, it springs to action. Belasco's performance is rapid but well-paced, offering many questions for leaders to ponder and tried-and-true strategies that help organizations succeed. Focusing on and living the vision is clearly demonstrated in these lively audiobooks. D.L.M. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
