Professionalism 101: Optimal Performance Within the Work Organization

The practitioner's definitive handbook of professionalism... the who, what, when, where, and how of professionalism in organizations. To reach for, attain, and sustain exceptional performance at the individual level and optimal performance at the group and organizational levels, requires us to transcend our current concept of "work" and re-orient ourselves and advance a new model of work... "task" work + "whole person" work + "professional" work (the 7 dimensions of professionalism) = "TALENT" work. "Professionalism 101" is that missing piece. As a textbook... it's inexpensive. As a cheap romance novel... not so much.
