Instead, in this fast-reading drama that reminds me of \u003ci\u003eThe Goal\u003c\/i\u003e, the famous Goldratt novel about manufacturing, we follow the lives of two starkly different managers. Chad, the one in need of lots of people-skills learning, reminds me of the words of author\/speaker Tom Peters. Chad greets his employees every Monday morning in the coffee room--mechanically, checking off and crediting himself for each arrival. Peters once commented, 'If you don't really care about your employees, really care, you should be a management consultant, not a manager.' But Wiskup shows that managers can learn. His twelve-hour story will keep you as engrossed as watching the TV show 24.
