Not Motivated? Read this Tom Peters Report

I've long admired Tom Peters' PSF (Professional Services Firm) approach, where he suggests that each and every one of us in business operate as if we are our own professional services firm. When you think about it, it's truly liberating. In fact, his Project 50 book is one of the best project management books I've read.

In this free eBook, Project 05, Tom Peters rants on his favorite topics, such as: PSFs are everything, Why the MBA should be abolished, Why CEOs are idiots, Leadership tips from Lord Nelson, Why everything should be Decentralized, Passion over Process, and more.

If you're not fired up now, you will be. Highly inspiring and motivating. Check it out...

Jerry,

The Blogger comments work again.

Tom's "guru table" on page 134 surprised me. I didn't realize that Execution ranked so high with him. Even though I love his views on projects, I would never cite Tom Peters as an authority on HOW to execute a project. He is definitely an authority on coloring outside the lines... or better yet, eliminating the lines or turning them into a long string of exclamation points. :o)

The e-book a another great Tom Peters rant.
