Praise for the first edition of Up Your Business!
‘Dave Anderson has hit another home run! Up Your Business! is an
invaluable, highly readable guide that should be on the desk–and
in the mind–of anyone demanding top-level performance from
themselves and others.’
–James Strock, author, Reagan on Leadership and Theodore Roosevelt
on Leadership
‘Up Your Business! is a powerful blueprint for companies looking to
take their business to the next level. It is one of the most
powerful books on business and leadership I have ever read and will
be a major component of Saga Communications’ leadership
training.’
–Warren Lada, Senior Vice President, Saga Communications,
Inc.
‘Once again, Dave Anderson puts it all together in a way that
almost makes you think he’s been looking over your shoulder all
these years. Chapter two alone, ‘Abolish Corporate Welfare: Create
a Culture of Merit, ‘ is worth the time it takes to read the entire
book.’
–Mike Roscoe, founder and President, Horizon Communications
‘Finally . . . a business book that gets to the heart of what
matters and creates usable templates that could help any business
thrive.’
–Roxanne Emmerich, author, Thank God It’s Monday!
