I’ve always held Tom Peters in super high regard. A quote from his earlier book, A Passion for Excellence, helped nail an interview which launched my recruitment career.
The Excellence Dividend is a high-octane acknowledgement of the commercial turbulence that lies ahead, brought about predominantly by the disruptive nature of technology. Peters presents a wide range of observations and insights around how businesses can remain in the game, each underpinned by human potential to provide competitive edge.
He explores the critical importance of putting people first, so as to fully engage co-workers in the pre-requisite process of change and to fuel innovation. He addresses the need for innovation and for perpetual value-add, and highlights the imperative requirement for both strong and authentic leadership.
