(More customer reviews)Engel persuasively argues that exceptional people are the true driving force behind excellence in business. He explores the core attributes of the exceptional individual (EI) and gives an approach to identifying such a person, centering on (1) the importance of achievement in their values and (2) the specifics of achievements. Driven toward action and achievement, EI's are creators; they make things happen! Beyond personality traits, there are insights into what it take to allow EI's to develop/emerge and achieve their potential. Engel's also describes the role others (facilitators) in support of the actions of EI's. There is deep passion in this work that clearly emerges when, in the closing pages, the author takes a quantum leap to link the achievements of EI's with the future of human evolution. Finally, Engel makes clear that personal excellence cannot be "neatly summarized," likewise, neither can this book, which is rich in thought, filled with anecdotes and, in its own right, exceptional.

In Tom Peter's "Search of Excellence", he based his eight attributes of a successful business on a wide selection of American companies. A decade later some of those companies are facing crisis and bankruptcy. Attacking Tom Peters' principles of corporate empathy and team-building, Peter Engel shows that excellence in business begins and ends with those special individuals who are able to carry a new idea forward and get it done. In the process, these individuals will get the structure of their companies right. The people with the talent for making things happen are the essential fuel that drives all commerce. These are the people Engel aims to teach business leaders to identify, encourage, retain and ultimately foster. This text offers step-by-step advice and techniques for success.
