SECRETS OF THE WILD GOOSE The Self-Management Way to Increase Your Personal Power and Inspire Productive Teamwork
The secret of wild geese is this: They fly in formation, not solo, which gives them the 'lifting power' to cover hundreds of miles at a stretch. And just like a gaggle of geese, companies and employees get where they want to go by joining focus and self-discipline with the power of teamwork.
This dynamic, inspiring guide unlocks the door to personal and organizational success by showing managers how to achieve focus, discipline, superior leadership skills, and more, through the art of self-management. Filled with sage advice and dozens of self-testing exercises, the book explains how to:
** set a clear vision, realistic goals, and workable action plans ** influence others through example rather than coercion ** assume the powerful role of manager/ leader ** foster committed collaboration and successful teamwork DONALD H. WEISS, Ph.D. (Florissant, MO) is president of Self-Management Communications, Inc. and has more than 30 years of experience as a training and development expert. His many books include Why Didn't I Say That and Fair, Square & Legal (both Amacom).

Weiss is president of Self-Management Communications, a training and development firm. He has written numerous articles for popular management journals and is the author of several books on the subject. Here he uses the analogy of the wild goose to represent the benefits of teamwork and self-discipline. Geese fly in formation to maximize lifting power and will fly for hours on end. At the same time, Weiss delineates his theory of self-management and its six "learned competencies." They are wholeness, self-confidence, self-awareness, self-esteem/respect, drive, and respect for others. He then shows how self-management can be applied to increase both personal power and group power. Weiss embodies the practical, down-to-earth approach to management typified by most materials released by AMACOM, the publishing arm of the American Management Association. David Rouse
