Co-written with Brian Tracy and leading experts from around the world, this book is a best seller on Amazon. My contribution explores a governance topic familiar to ICMA members – how boundaries can empower your team and your life.
As adults, we have a tendency to think of boundaries or barriers as limiting; something to break through or blow by, when in reality a thoughtful boundary can be incredibly empowering and freeing.
How many of us know of someone who has lost a career or a marriage or a special relationship because they chose to transgress a boundary? The fact is that thoughtful boundaries provide safety, security, and reward while encouraging everyone to do their best.
If you want to see an improvement in innovation, enthusiasm and performance in your teams, discover the freedom that thoughtful limits provide. By letting go you really can go faster – and everyone enjoys the journey more!

The Success Secret was a multilist best seller on Amazon. Jack Canfield (of "Chicken Soup" fame) headlined this incredible collection of stories from all walks of life.
My contribution deals with the importance of knowing what your target is before you try to hit it. Based on a thirty year career in local government and almost a decade of consulting with city councils and other boards of directors, I have come to believe that the lack of clarity surrounding desired outcomes is the most significant shortcoming in the governance process.
In true “Chicken Soup” style I tell a story and then draw conclusions that will absolutely resonate with professional local government administrators.
Jack’s contribution underscores this point. As he talks about “success made simple,” he says, “Most people never take the time to sit down and design the life they want to live.” In my words, they never fully clarify their target.
An easy and entertaining read!

Streamline is a teaching book on how to apply Lean and Six Sigma to make government more efficient. The story follows the struggles of City Manager Sam McConnell, who cannot keep up with the demand for more city services, due to a flat budget.
Hearing about Lean and Six Sigma, Sam turns to a local expert, asking her to train his management team in Lean and Six Sigma principles, to help improve efficiency.
Though the story is fictional, the scenarios are real life. Readers are given clear, straightforward Lean Six Sigma training, along with the novel’s characters.
