This engaging, informative book will help you: -Apply effective, real-world techniques to hone your focus and reduce interference -Learn the lessons taught to organizations such as Harley-Davidson, BMO Harris Bank, MasterCard, and the US Army -Understand how modern technology can actually strengthen your focus if used correctly -Avoid becoming a casualty of "weapons of mass distraction" Noise: Living and Leading When Nobody Can Focus is a valuable resource for leaders and managers seeking to develop laser-sharp focus and apply it to everything you do. | ||
