“Managers As Facilitators is a great reference to use as a team develops and changes. The Quick Fix section offers excellent clues to solving everyday management problems.” — Rebecca L Erdahl, Vice President of Community Relations and Diversity, The Pillsbury Company “This is a keep-it-out-on-the-credenza handbook for the coach/manager of the ‘90s. It is well organized, with lots of easy-to-find summaries, charts, and tables. I highly recommend it.” — Larry Newman, Region Vice President, A T&T
