The 2-book series helps corporations address poor critical thinking and writing issues hurting productivity
Having been trained in the classical packaged goods marketing approach to problem solving and structured writing, Jim has trained scores of executives at all levels from young marketers to senior clients who have asked him to write their presentations.
He started noticing writing issues with recent grads in the early 2000’s and since 2015 there has been a growing number of studies and articles on the negative impact it is having on corporate productivity. This has led to a need for corporations establishing training to teach better writing.
Rather than write another boring business book, Jim utilized a “FABLE” based on the hugely successful “Who Moved My Cheese”. The approach is easier to read, retain and replicate so it can be put into practice immediately.
“Get Your Ducks In A Rowe” - Book 1 teaches the simple 10 step business communication formula to think strategically, write persuasively and present a business recommendation to generate buy-in (THINK – WRITE – PRESENT – SELL).
“Get Your Ducks In A Rowe” - Book 2 Learn The A-D-A-P-T-E-R Method explains Jim’s trademarked, holistic approach to strategic business communication starting with critical thinking / problem solving through writing, presenting and successful execution. Target publication date March 2022
