Boss's Day is October 16 - Personalized book package.

Please don't delay - orders must be received by October 6th to be guaranteed for delivery before Boss's Day.

Bosses day is coming up. Would you like to give your manager a personalized and unique gift? I have put together a package with my new book, 10 Steps to Be a Successful Manager. This book is for both new and experienced managers - helps you kick up your game a notch from wherever it is today.

It's hot off the press!

Here are the details of what's included in the package:

Personalized signed book to your boss
Boss's Day card
Personalized letter from me about the importance of managers
Mailed USPS Priority from me to your boss

The package costs $22.00 (shipping is included in this price). Sure, you can get the book a few bucks cheaper on Amazon, but it won't be as personal (that said, I appreciate Amazon orders too!).

Click here to go to the book page and order this special package!

Please note that when you order the package, you will need to type in your boss's name and address using the link on the "Review Your Order" page.

In the letter, I will share that this is a gift from you and that you think he or she is a great manager. I will share my respect for managers and my thoughts about what makes great managers, great. I will close the letter by offering 10 ways they can further enjoy their work as a manager. The letter will be uplifting and inspiring.

As you may recall, I asked for volunteers on this blog for people to read the draft manuscript and offer their opinions of the book for the book cover and website. Here's what some of you said about the book (thank you all!):

"This book hits a management Grand Slam. Lisa offers a clear and engaging guide to management success. Don’t browse the book, rather carefully follow each step from your role to your legacy with the tune ups, tables, and tools to both communicate and obliterate your way to becoming a successful manager. The book is a perfect 10!

David Zinger, Founder of David Zinger & Associates, Employee Engagement & Strenght Based Leadership Specialists, co-author of Slacker Manager.com

"Filled with practical guidance and written in a warm, friendly style, this book should be on every manager's shelf.  Lisa teaches you how to work smarter, instead of harder, to yield excellent results. Her pointers, tools, and worksheets are easy to use and extremely valuable. A winner!"

Tara Rodden Robinson, Zugunruhe Coaching LLC

"10 Steps to Be a Successful Manager offers the building blocks you need to take your management to the next level, whether you're new to management or have been managing for years.

Nick McCormick, Author of Lead Well and Prosper

"This is important book provides a profoundly expert, masterfully comprehensive, and engagingly accessible explanation of what it really takes to be an effective manager-and how to develop and incorporate those skills into your own daily work. It doesn't matter where you are in your management career-whether student or CEO or anywhere in between-you will learn what a fully professional manager really does, and how to do it better yourself."

Jim Stroup, Management Consultant and author of Managing Leadership

"10 Steps to Be a Successful Manager delivers as promised.  Each of the ten steps are important for every manager, regardless of their experience and background. You will want to do more than read this book-when you apply these steps you will change the performance of your organization and yourself forever." 

Kevin Eikenberry, Author of Remarkable Leadership-Unleashing Your Leadership Potential One Skill at a Time

"At her usual to the point enjoyable style Lisa's new book provides a good mix of prescriptive advice and the thought-provoking principles behind it. As an experienced manager I had a hard time putting it down, and look forward to using it as a coaching tool for other managers in my team."

Yuval Yeret, Vice President of Research and Development, SANRAD, Israel

"Excellent book! Whether you are an experienced manager who wants to sharpen your skills or a new manager looking for guidance, either way this is a must-read book. Every step has practical checklists for immediate use, and designed to give you results as you progress through the book, even if you don't read the chapters in sequence. Highly recommended for your bookshelf." 

Nilesh Nerurkar, General Manager, Atos Origin

"Managers, from the neophyte to the experienced, should read this book. Not only is the material presented highly actionable, with worksheets and examples provided to help pave the way to implementation of its ten steps, several of those steps cause you to focus inwardly and think about your role and work as a manager, and will have a profound effect on how you will define and relate to your managerial responsibilities."

Dennis Grinberg, Manager, Software Engineering, Eaton Corporation

"I wish I had this book when I started managing.  Great ideas and modern concepts on how to improve your success as a manager in today's complex business environment.  10 steps to be a Successful Manager is a must read for anyone who wants to improve their team's performance and personal management skills."

Lee Iwan, International Business Development Manager, Quimica Central de Mexico
