Practical and inspiring, "Moxie for Managers" made me appreciate even more the value that influence has in leading effectively. It proves that anyone at any level of an organization can exert influence and effect change.--Bill Waszak, Chief Information Officer, The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company.
Wow, talk about self- and coworker-motivation. I received this book from the LT member giveaway program and immediately began highlighting. I just graduated from college and, although I am not in a management position currently, I feel like this book has enabled me to get in the "Moxie" mind-frame to do better work; and to make my work experience better for me and for my coworkers. Ann Tardy's tips for becoming a leader at work also apply to other parts of my life now: classes, projects, interviews, and even friendships. After reading, I felt empowered to make better decisions and to make my experience what I want it to be. Excellent read for those who want to manage both work relationships and life relationships. Highly recommend, and have gotten feedback from friends that it has inspired them to do their best at work and at home also.
I have been in positions of leadership from the military, private sector, and now government. This is the best book on leadership I have ever read. It is realistic, inspiring and has given me my moxie back. My mentor recommend I read this book and wow I am so thankful. Ms. Tardy thank you for capturing the true essence of leadership and having fun doing it.
I read this book after listening to Ann Tardy speak at the HR West conference in Oakland this year. She did such an amazing job that I had to go buy her book right after the session. I found the tips in this book to be extraordinarily helpful, and the overall book to be extremely motivational.
