An occasional feature, "Law Library Staff Recommend..." highlights books that Law Library staff members have read for enjoyment and now recommend that others consider for inclusion on their own reading lists. If you have any comments or questions about any of the titles presented in this feature, feel free to email lawlib@umn.edu or stop by the library. Today we highlight Big Ideas to Big Results: Remake and Recharge Your Company, Fast by Michael T. Kanazawa and Robert H. Miles (FT Press, 2008).

How does a company go from ideas and initiatives to actually seeing results that pay off and last? The authors of Big Ideas to Big Results offer a process that addresses employee commitment to company/institution strategies and initiatives in a way that ensures success. The process (called the ACT process, for "Accelerated Corporate Transformation") aims to simplify the movement from idea to action and commitment. Since the Law Library has been moving forward with its strategic visioning plan/process, this book has easily translated to the local environment from a different point of view and business model.

For more information on the book, the authors, and resources associated with the topics presented in the book (including a blog by the authors), visit: http://www.bigideastobigresults.com/index.html
