In his typical excellent style, Jack Lannom has once again created a masterpiece in unlocking the art of human motivation. This book, in the format of a short story, explains and clarifies the "People First" philosophy that is the basis for inspiring both family and organizations to perform and succeed at the height of their capabilities. This philosophy is outlined in what the author refers to as "The Pyramid of People Power," which is basically five phrases that convey honor, value, respect, and esteem to the hearers that instills confidence and builds a culture of trust, respect, and success. Each phrase, which represents an attitude toward others, is unpacked in a chapter devoted to that particular phrase. I really liked the concept of referring to the people in an organization as "Purpose Partners" instead of "my people." A related concept in the book that inspired me was seeing people as "Human Beings" and not "human doings" who are simply used as pawns to accomplish a task. This book is short and easy to read, but the author has distilled his extensive experience and knowledge into a compact novel that you will want to read over and over to glean every bit of wisdom that is dripping from its pages. I heartily commend this book to you.
