Review
It's Not Magic effectively communicates the key principles for building a "Best In Class" organization. While describing the rebirth of a small company these principles are relevant for a company of any size. -- Dwane Baumgardner; Chairman, Donnelly Corporation
It's Not Magic is about practicing the fundamental discipline in business with the heart at the core. Most intriguing is the idea that when we stop chasing the magic solution we start to see the magic unfold. I highly recommend this book for anyone on the journey of continuous improvement. -- Kiyoshi Suzaki, Author of The New Shop Floor Management and The New Manufacturing Challenge
It's Not Magic is the story of how leadership changed the culture of a company in decline into a world-class organization. Many practical suggestions are included as well as insights on how to involve everyone in an organization in that process. -- John M. Bissell; Chairman of the Board, Bissell, Inc.
Its Not Magic gives many examples of leadership and cultural change, key ingredients to the success of any business. This easy-reading book details new twists to basic principals that we can all apply to our businesses. -- John Spoelhof; Chairman Prince, A Johnson Controls Company
