Synopsis: For more than 200 years, the U. S. Marine Corps has been a paragon of world-class leadership, excelling in the areas of motivation, training, and management. Semper Fi - which since its hardcover publication has become a best-selling, business leadership classic - shows readers how to adapt these proven practices for their own organizations. Now in a paperback edition with a new introductionby the authors, Semper Fi goes behind the scenes to pinpoint what works for the USMC, showing readers how to create a training and management culture that brings out the best in all their employees. The book gives readers tough, practical tips for: * inspiring individual initiative * rewarding hard work * encouraging loyalty * working with limited resources * dealing with change * leading the troops at every level of the organization This is not, according to Dan Rather, one of those mumbo-jumbo, pseudo-philosophical books on leadership. Semper Fi is a book you will actually USE, read, and refer to again and again.
