New Excerpt on Excerpts Blog!

We have a new excerpt up on the ol' excerpts blog. It's Chapter 9 from Ignited by Vince Thompson. There comes a point when it's time for those in leadership to light a fire under every uninspired and discouraged group. Ignited is for middle managers who need an outline of clear, realistic steps to promote change within an organization. In Chapter 9, Thompson talks about the common tendency to become inward-focused. He suggests that one step toward reshaping an organization is scouting The Landscape--the external influences on our world, customers, and competition.
