What business teams can learn from football when the game is on the line. Companies and governmental organizations have spent years of training and billions of dollars on improvement efforts, yet continue to slip behind in competitiveness, quality, and innovation. The authors of 'The Two-Minute Dril'l maintain that organizations often do what no football team would in this situation-send in back-office staff to slow down the game and study every move in detail-while the clock ticks down, creating bureaucratic inertiainstead of focused, coordinated leadership. Based on original research with hundreds of companies, the authors show how managers can create rapid change without wasting the most precious resource they have: time. Clinton O. Longenecker (Toledo, OH) is the Stranahan Professor of Leadership and Organizational Excellence in the College of Business Administration at the University of Toledo. Greg R. Papp (Holland, OH) is President of Cube Culture Corporation, a consultingfirm specializing in performance improvement. Timothy C. Stansfield (Toledo, OH) is President of IET, Inc., a manufacturing consulting firm that has worked with 1400 manufacturing plants over the past 20 years.
Praise for The Two-Minute Drill
"The authors have created an approach to improvement that is powerful, poignant, and packs a punch. The Two-Minute Drill provides a real plan of action for improvement that people can really relate to." - Vicky Black, president, Fabory North America
"In the past 25 years, my company has shifted from process strategies to execution strategies. By far the lessons on execution described in The Two-Minute Drill have produced the most successful results for us. I have taken
this book to my team, and we are now better prepared to take the ball into the improvement end zone." - Al Caperna, CEO, CMC Group
"When your team is not ready for the change game, the outcome can be disastrous. I wish I had had the benefit of the lessons from The Two-Minute Drill before undertaking my latest change effort." - Rear Admiral David R. Ellison, USN (Ret.), president and superintendent, New Mexico Military Institute
"In today's fast-paced competitive world, there is little time for error or waste. Just like a well-disciplined football team, business leaders should use the techniques explained in The Two-Minute Drill to ensure that their teams move the ball, score, and win." - Gary L. Cowger, group vice president, Global Manufacturing and Labor Relations, General Motors Corporation
"Having played quarterback and run the two-minute drill in college, it is no different in business. Define winning, prepare, communicate, seize control, adjust quickly, and-above all-execute! Organizational change and transformation demand action, as we do not have the whole season to score. I have made the Two-Minute Drill part of my playbook, and you should also. The clock is running on all of us." - John Meier, CEO, Libbey, Inc.
