Overview:<\/b><\/p>\n
Peters (<\/span>The Little Big Things<\/span><\/i>), a veteran business writer, delivers a superb business tome intended to capture his \u201cthinking over the past five decades\u201d and show its applicability to the 21st century. Peters does a commendable job of parsing an impressive amount of material into easily digestible bites, beginning with simple and elegant definitions of what excellence looks like at work\u2014a tucked-in shower curtain in a hotel bathroom, for example\u2014 proceeding to such varied topics as the importance of lunch in the workplace and why women are crucial to any corporation\u2019s success. Peters includes a bounty of reading lists throughout and repeatedly exhorts his audience to \u201cread!\u201d and \u201cstudy!\u201d Addressing the move toward automation, Peters urges businesses to put their workforces first. Notable stories from Peters\u2019s career begin each chapter, though some of the more dated material, such as a 1978 anecdote about dealing with a computer crash at McKinsey & Co., can feel far removed from today\u2019s business environment. Those who persevere, however, will find Peters a font of management wisdom germane to \u201csurviving and thriving in the unruly times ahead.\u201d<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n Authors:<\/b> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span> Published In:<\/b><\/p>\n 3 April \u00a02018<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Overview: Peters (The Little Big Things), a veteran business writer, delivers a superb business tome intended to capture his \u201cthinking over the past five decades\u201d and show its applicability to the 21st century.
