Whatever the occupation, organization, or industry, here are tried and tested solutions, techniques, rules and tactics that get the job done right. Whether you're a manager fed up with your worker's ho-hum attitude or an individual who can't seem to live up to your potential no matter how hard you try, this book will give you ideas that can put into immediate action -- a no-fail formula for ending the whining and instilling in yourself and your employees a winning spirit. Amazon.com Review: Nobody likes a whiner, Frank Pacetta least of all. And, as he sees it, there's been far too much whining going on in corporate America over the past decade, and far too little drive, passion, and inspiration to get the job done and get it done well. Stop Whining--and Start Winning is Pacetta's honest and hard-hitting manifesto for how to make this happen. Pacetta and his coauthor Roger Gittines fire back at America's complacent workforce by equipping leaders with a book packed full of 'now-tos'--the Pacetta version of how-tos, only more necessary and more urgent. With chapter titles such as 'Do Get Excited--Reaping the Rewards of Emotion' and 'Make Big Dreams Happen--What a Great Place to Work,' Pacetta drives home his overarching theory of leadership: Being a good leader means getting emotionally involved with your workforce and thereby motivating people to contribute their absolute best. There's no room for 'leading from a distance' with Pacetta, who claims that successful leaders can and should directly influence such areas as communications, recruiting, and training. In an animated and conversational tone, the sales guru of Xerox fame shares advice and anecdotes from both his professional and personal lives, with tips from his action-packed days at Xerox, family moments in a vibrant Italian American home, and a personal visit from Ross Perot all entering the fray at one point or another. Stop Whining--and Start Winning is not a theory-based tome but a plug for passion and a call for leaders to get off their butts and fire up their workforces. --S. Glass Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - A great energizer for the sales force The author does an excellent job of pushing the reader to get engaged with their work / co-workers and to not be scared of displaying emotion. Down with the sterile arms length work environment and up with sincerity and high energy dedication. I especially like the discussion of building a high performance team where the author says "My strategy is to always build teams around the highest performers and let them set such a blistering pace that the mediocre performers can't hide and chose to go someplace ... Read More Rating: - Great Book! But has anyone noticed...? Pacetta's book is a real winner! Of course there is nothing new in the area of sales, motivation, or inspiration. What is new is the way it is all arranged. And Pacetta arranges his material with wit, honesty, humor, and a blatant attack on the basics. Back to basics is what every professional needs. We get so caught up with our careers and lives, that we stray from the basics; the basics of business, customer relations, employee development, etc. I read this book from cover to cover and loved every ... Read More Rating: - Thanks, Frank! I had the privilege of attending one of Frank Pacetta's presentations last month and enjoyed it so much that I bought his latest book. His passion and no-nonsense style has really inspired me to help in eliminating the "ho hum" in our organization or move on to a place that has that "passionate attachment" towards its employees. Thanks for a great book Frank! Rating: - Start Winning I'm a sales trainer and, from a calloused standpoint, don't believe that there is anything really, really new in the world of sales. What's left is the ability or strategy of finding your passion and setting or staying on a course of success. I believe Frank Pacetta is all about that. I've had the pleasure of meeting Frank and his family and can attest to the fact that this man "walks his talk"! As he says, if you're spending a little too long in the shower or can't read this book, you ... Read More Rating: - Same old material "Stop Whining" is the same old management book with a different cover and title. I bought it to get some new material, but there is nothing here that hasn't been written before. The entire book revolves around one point: treat others (employees and customers) like you would want to be treated. A vital concept but hardly original. The author is smart using todays hot business buzz word, "passion" in the title, however this material has little spark. The title caught my interest, but having invested money ...
