"This is an amazing book! And so needed today!"
-Stephen R. Covey, Author: 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
“Fake Work cuts like a laser to the all-too-common practices that transform smart, well-intended people into disheartened residents of the Dilbert Zone. An organization pays a heavy price when its bright, capable people quit and leave. But it’s even more costly when bright, capable people quit and stay. Disengagement is a silent killer. Fake Work masterfully helps you diagnose the symptoms, spot the root causes, and put your people on the path to work that really matters.”
Rodger Dean Duncan, author of ChangeSmarts: Engaging People’s Heads, Hearts, and Hopes
“In more than fifty years in the business world, from the lofty heights of senior positions in multinational corporations…this is the first time I have seen…any serious examination of the disconnect between effort expended and work (results) accomplished."
Leroy K. Speirs, National Advisory Council of the Marriott School of Management, Brigham Young University
