Marcus Buckingham California

During his 17 years with The Gallup Organization, Marcus Buckingham helped lead
their research into the world's best managers, leaders and workplaces.
Buckingham has taken his broad experience in management practices and employee retention and put it into a trio of best-selling books: First Break All the Rules: What the World's Best Managers Do Differently (Simon and Schuster), Now, Discover Your Strengths (The Free Press) and his latest work, The One Thing You Need To Know (The Free Press). Buckingham's presentations take the key points of these books, combined with plenty of great examples from a wide variety of organizations, to show audiences how they can learn from the world's best managers and leaders. A wonderful resource for leaders, managers and educators, Marcus Buckingham challenges conventional wisdom and shows the link between engaged employees and productivity, profit, customer satisfaction and the rate of turnover. Buckingham graduated from Cambridge Unversity in 1987 with a master's degree in Social and Political Science. A subject of in-depth profiles in The New York Times, Fortune and Fast Company, Buckingham is also a member of the Secretary of State's Advisory Committee on Leadership and Management. The One Thing You Need to Know - Marcus Buckingham examines the controlling insights that drive great managing, great leading and sustained individual success. Three things to know from One Thing:
Most original and potentially most revealing, however, is a Web-based interactive component that allows readers to complete a questionnaire developed by the Gallup Organization and instantly discover their own top-five inborn talents. This device provides a personalized window into the authors' management philosophy which, coupled with subsequent advice, places their suggestions into the kind of practical context that's missing from most similar tomes. "You can't lead a strengths revolution if you don't know how to find, name and develop your own," write Buckingham and Clifton. Their book encourages such introspection while providing knowledgeable guidance for applying its lessons.
Rules are for breaking. Research indicates that great business managers have one
thing in common - a willingness to break the rules, step outside the boundaries.
Marcus Buckingham takes this basic truth and applies it to the needs of his
audience, unveiling new ways to exceed expectations and inspire colleagues.
