"There is no magic formula for building a successful enterprise, large or small. If you're in the business of making a profit, you're in the business of building people. First you build your people. After that, your people produce your profit. The Art of Constructive Confrontation is an easy-to-follow, systematic process that makes sure that you don't get those things backwards. Constructive Confrontation is the closest thing you'll ever find to hold people accountable for what they do, while at the same time reducing the conflicts that get in the way of productivity and, ultimately, profits."

Executive Chairman, Southwestern/Great American, Inc.

The Art of Constructive Confrontation deals with core communications issues common to the functioning (or "dysfunctioning") of people working together. The authors recognize that we are all less-than-perfect leaders and followers and that we often miscommunicate objectives, timelines and performance standards. Consequently, when we find ourselves in messy situations we all too often take the "easy" way out and don't address issues at the source; we let them fester. Constructive Confrontation emphasizes addressing challenges and issues as they arise and not letting them mutate into monster problems and coaches the reader how to work collaboratively in establishing what has to be done, who is going to do it, and what the final outcomes should be. This is a must read!"

“What a timely book for business managers and anyone who manages people. Most of the time people don’t take responsibility because their responsibilities are not clear to them. The Art of Constructive Confrontation will be a valuable tool in both my business and personal lives. I plan to put these principles to work this week.”
