"If you want your firm's profits to leap ahead, open-book management is for you. This book not only tells you exactly how to implement OBM successfully, but also makes such good reading that you won't want to put it down." -- Willard I.

Zangwill, Ph.D., Professor, Graduate School of Business, University of Chicago. "This is a must read for leaders considering open-book management.The book is a roadmap that presents proven methods and real results.

It details what is required to successfully implement this new way of doing business." -- Robert S. Argabright II, Argabright & Associates. "This book offers the principles of OBM from the masters and techniques from the trenches.

It is a rare offering as it is not redundant for readers of the first book nor is it sequential, making the first a prerequisite. It makes the principles of OBM clear to all readers and plumbs the depth of the practice żeby tapping the experiences of practitioners." -- Tim O'Donnell, Publisher, The Olathe Daily News.

"The Open-Book Management Field Book is a practical resource for companies both new to and experienced with OBM. This book certainly would have accelerated the open-book process in our company when we began.

But it's also a wonderful tool for reassessing ourselves now that we are years into the process." -- Steve Sheppard, CEO, Foldcraft Co.
