From the Back Cover:

Advance Praise for Simple Solutions

"Arguably, from Lord Nelson to Napoleon to U. S. Grant, the great 'secret' of supremely successful leaders has been determined simplicity. Simple Solutions is a brilliant and much-needed addition to a woefully thin collection on business issue number one: getting things done!"
—Tom Peters, coauthor of In Search of Excellence

"Schmitt and Perl's book begins and ends with simplicity, but in between lies a set of truly powerful ideas. This isn't a new theory on management; it's a guide to management practice that any practicing manager would benefit greatly from."
—Dave Godes, Associate Professor, Harvard Business School

"Schmitt and Perl have crafted a must-have book for all managers who want to have an impact. The clear, simple advice contained in Simple Solutions is invaluable to anyone interested in improving his or her management skills. These ideas work."
—Mark A. Emkes, Chairman and CEO, Bridgestone Americas Holding, Inc. and Bridgestone Firestone North American Tire, LLC

"Simple Solutions is a good road map for leaders of all organizations because it provides concise and straightforward guidelines for leadership. It's not theoretical or long-winded, but gives real-world behavioral instruction to make leaders more effective."
—Richard H. Anderson, Executive Vice President, UnitedHealth Group

"The premise of Schmitt and Perl's book is the need to reduce complex problems to their simplest components, an approach I've seen produce powerful results. Managers at all levels would benefit from applying the principles outlined in this book."
—Pitt Hyde, Chairman, AutoZone

"In a complex world, we often complicate things more than necessary and forget that the goal is to do the right things as well as possible. This book is a terrific primer on identifying the right things and getting on with them."
—John Durrett, Managing Director, McKinsey and Co., Inc., West Coast

"A powerful and thought-provoking book filled with sound advice that would help the young or the experienced executive understand the importance of management and leadership skills. I wish that I had a book like Simple Solutions to guide me through the transition from athlete to executive."
—Jerry West, President of Basketball Operations, Memphis Grizzlies
