Leigh Paulden’s comments:
The Great Game of Business is an open-book management operating system, based on the experiences of Jack Stack in the 1980s and how he and fellow employees turned a company destined for bankruptcy into a successful one. Get in the Game, is an expansion of Stack’s work and includes a ten-step implementation guide to embedding open-book management in your business.
In Get in the Game, the authors use the essential components of a game as a way to teach your employees about the business and encourage them to participate and contribute to its profitability. Thousands of companies, worldwide, have used The Great Game of Business to their advantage.
Get in the Game levels the playing field, allowing everyone to act and take responsibility for the success of the company. This level of increased engagement has translated to measurable increases in Revenue (tw2x), Profit (6x), and three times the national average in Employee Engagement in the USA. Get in the Game is a practical guide to creating rapid financial results and cultural change.
