Title: Managing the Professional Service Firm

Author: David H. Maister

Narrator: B. J. Harrison

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 13 hours 27 minutes

Release date: July 31, 2024

Genres: Business & Career Development

Publisher's Summary:

International expert and consultant David Maister offers a brilliant and accessible guide to every management issue at play in professional firms. Professional firms differ from other business enterprises in two distinct ways: first, they provide highly customized services and thus cannot apply many of the management principles developed for product-based industries. Second, professional services are highly personalized, involving the skills of individuals. Such firms must therefore compete not only for clients but also for talented professionals. Drawing on more than ten years of research and consulting to these unique and creative companies, David Maister explores issues ranging from marketing and business development to multinational strategies, human resources policies to profit improvement, strategic planning to effective leadership. While these issues can be complex, Maister simplifies them by recognizing that “every professional service firm in the world, regardless of size, specific profession, or country of operation, has the same mission statement: outstanding service to clients, satisfying careers for its people, and financial success for its owners.” This audiobook is expertly read by BJ Harrison, and was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont. Audio engineering by Blake Rook. Copyright (C) 1993 by David H. Maister.

Title: The Façade of Excellence: Defining a New Normal of Leadership

Author: John Dyer

Narrator: John Dyer

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 23 minutes

Release date: July 30, 2024

Genres: Business & Career Development

Publisher's Summary:

The crucial need to substitute true leadership for bad management practices such as Management By Objectives (MBO) and the use of fear is now well known and was often championed by Dr. W. Edwards Deming. The executives of these organizations might give permission for the tools of Lean and Six Sigma to be taught but many of them still refuse to look in a mirror and change their own leadership style. They have built a 'façade of excellence' that crumbles quickly whenever a bit of chaos is introduced. Not being able to sustain improvements over the long term is one of the top complaints from improvement professionals. What ingredient is missing that prohibits changes to occur throughout the leadership ranks that might create a culture that embraces teamwork, collaboration, and improvement? To start, what exactly do we mean by leadership? Leadership actually has many dimensions and several definitions. This book explores four different styles of leadership that includes 'The Crisis Leader,' 'The Idea Gathering Leader,' 'The Team Forming Leader,' and 'The Empowerment Leader.' Each of the four styles is appropriate when given a certain set of circumstances. The goal is to shift the organization, including the leaders and all of the employees at every level, toward collaboration and empowerment.
