Following the success of the landmark bestsellers First,
Break All the Rules and Now, Discover Your Strengths, Marcus
Buckingham offers a dramatically new way to understand the
art of success. With over 1.6 million copies of First,
Break All the Rules (co-authored with Curt Coffman) and Now,
Discover Your Strengths (co-authored with Donald O. Clifton)
in print, Cambridge-educated Buckingham is considered one of
the most respected business authorities on the subject of
management and leadership in the world. With The One Thing
You Need to Know, he gives readers an invaluable course in
outstanding achievement -- a guide to capturing the essence
of the three most fundamental areas of professional
activity. Great managing, leading, and career success --
Buckingham draws on a wealth of applicable examples to
reveal that a controlling insight lies at the heart of the
three. Lose sight of this "one thing" and even the best
efforts will be diminished or compromised. Readers will be
eager to discover the surprisingly different answers to each
of these rich and complex subjects. Each could be explained
endlessly to detail their many facets, but Buckingham's
great gift is his ability to cut through the mass of
often-conflicting agendas and zero in on what matters most,
without ever oversimplifying. As he observes, success comes
to those who remain mindful of the core insight, understand
all of its ramifications, and orient their decisions around
it. Buckingham backs his arguments with authoritative
research from a wide variety of sources, including his own
research data and in-depth interviews with individuals at
every level of an organization, from CEO's to hotel maids
and stockboys. In every way a groundbreaking book, The One
Thing You Need to Know offers crucial performance and career
lessons for business people at all career stages.
