    About this audiobook

    New York Times bestselling author and award-winning educator Ron Clark applies his successful leadership principles to the business world in this effective and accessible guidebook, perfect for any manager looking to inspire and motivate his or her team. Includes a foreword by bestselling author and FranklinCovey executive Sean Covey.

    Teamwork is crucial to the success of any business, and as acclaimed author and speaker Ron Clark illustrates, the members of any team are the key to unlocking success. Imagine a company as a bus filled with people who either help or hinder a team’s ability to move it forward: drivers (who steer the organization), runners (who consistently go above and beyond for the good of the organization), joggers (who do their jobs without pushing themselves), walkers (who are just getting pulled along), and riders (who hinder success and drag the team down). It’s the team leader’s job to recognize how members fall into these categories, encourage them to keep the “bus” moving by working together, and know when it’s time to kick the riders off.

    In the tradition of Who Moved My Cheese? and Fish!, Move Your Bus is an accessible and uplifting business parable that illustrates Clark’s expert strategies to maximize the performance of each member of a team. These easy to implement techniques will inspire employees and team leaders alike to work harder and smarter and drive the organization to succeed.

    • 5/5
      An excellent book with an overview on the types of people you meet at work and how to become a top performer, I definitely learned alot from this book
    • 3/5
      I loved the Essential 55 and have embraced the ideas behind them wholeheartedly, but this book didn't quite resonate for me.
    • 5/5
      This book was full of a wealth of information. It lists and discusses different aspects of Clark's school that can be used in any company or business.
    • 4/5
      Generally an easy and worthy read. In general, this book has a lot of good ideas embedded in it. I have some qualms that irk me slightly. Some of his tips on how to be a "runner" (top-performers) that he describes are descriptive, not prescriptive. For an example, it is possible to be there early and dressed in white tie, and be a "rider" (contributes very little to the organization). Also, I did not notice much in the way of a "runner" being someone who applies their efforts in a thoughtful and conscientious manner. (Actually, I have heard some high achieving people describe a programmer as someone who is lazy in a sense. That is do not do something again and again if it can be programmed. A good programmer will do this rather than do completing a task many times over.) Finally, I was disconcerted by including multitasking as part of the regular nature of a multitasker. Multitasker can be fine at the right time and a place, but I am wary of doing it as a matter of course.
