Praise for Balance of Power:

“Balance of Power is an uncommon balance of cutting-edge management strategies and proven, age-old leadership techniques. Author Jim Lucas displays a marvelous ability to blowtorch the ill-conceived, misunderstood, and poorly executed mangement fads of the last decade, while at the same time salvaging the positive elements. Lucas offers creative solutions to satisfy the changing mangement challenges of the millenium.”

“Many consultants subscribe to the Technique-of-the-Month Club. Lucas, on the other hand, has the ability to cut through the hype to identify and explain management and organizational truths. Our age calls for a new style of interdependent leadership that allows companies to adapt to an ever-changing environment. Lucas leads the way in fostering the new type of workplace.”
