Stopwatch Marketing Blog

 

Some very good news, at least for AnnaMaria and me as we head into the holidays: Stopwatch Marketing has been selected by Harvey Schachter at the Toronto Globe and Mail as one of the Top Ten Business Books of 2008!

What an honor and a pleasure to be recognized as one of the “Best of the best: intelligent, clear, filled with advice“

Here’s the link, just in case you’re interested in the other nine books:

Harvey Schachter, by the way, is an accomplished business author in his own right. He has written or edited several books and articles. These include:

Memos to the Prime Minister: What Canada Could Be in the 21st Century

 

 

And

Employee Ownership: The New Source of Competitive Advantage

 

I remember looking over “Employee Ownership” when it came out a few years ago and being compelled by some of its very good arguments.

More importantly, he writes a column for the Globe and Mail called “Monday Morning Manager Harvey Schachter’s guide on how to handle everything from overflowing e-mail to meeting overload.” It’s chock full of useful advice and help for harried (or talented) managers. One of my favorites was a review of Bo Schembechler’s management secrets (he, too, did a book…shortly before passing away).

Finally, Harvey does a blog through the Globe and Mail. I’ve added it to my list of frequently-viewed-and-commented-on blogs. So, I’m hoping some of you already on that list of mine will find it useful. Drew and Gavin – perhaps we can get him to contribute to AOC next year.

 Oh, and don’t forget our frequent quiz:  Which one is Harvey, which is AnnaMaria, and which is me?
