Revised second edition with new preface and bonus chapters!

Andrew Silberman and his management training company AMT Group have been “developing global thinkers” since 1992. With so much rapid change all around, across a wide spectrum of industries, and the globe seeming to shrink by the minute, being “globally ready” has taken on even greater importance today.

Based on the author’s popular newsletter Andrew’s Ax with its tagline “the cutting edge for global thinkers”, Get a G.R.I.P.: Global Readiness® Improvement Plan walks the listener through exercises that cut through the BS out there and help everyone—from top-level CEOs to full- or part-time staff—develop their own strengths as a leader, as a manager, and as a “globally thinking communicator”. The result is a win-win for both the company as well as for the personal development of the individual employee. This is book one of the series, a "very good place to start".

One reason for the book's wide appeal is the condensed nature of the content—you get a whole lot out of a minute or two. Each topic stands alone, and each one can and should inspire you to lead more effectively.

As the first version's back cover said, this may be the only leadership guide you’ll ever need. It’s not the only leadership guide that’s any good—true enough. But by listening to and doing these 15-minute exercises to improve your Global Readiness®, Get a G.R.I.P. will take you and your team to the next level, no matter where you are today.
