George S. Patton once said, “A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week”. This could be a very good tip to many CEOs today.
The book Activators: A CEO's Guide to Clearer Thinking and Getting Things Done by Mark E Green seeks to help CEOs, and others in leadership, overcome their fears and execute their plans.
This book is well-written and full of exercises to help leaders realize that the most important thing they can do is to formulate a plan, any plan, and get started.
Too often, businesses fail because the leaders won’t make decisions and stick with them.
Activators also tells leaders about making those hard decisions to fire high achieving employees who have become toxic to the company or jettison projects that just aren’t working.
The only real problem I saw in this book is that some of the graphics, especially those written in yellow, are hard to read.
If you know someone in a leadership role in any business, large or small, you will want to give them their very own copy of Activators.

This book is short. In fact, it will probably take you less than 15 minutes to read it. That is assuming you will be interrupted while you are reading. Don’t let its brevity fool you.

In any business, change is going to happen. 
There are many “so called” management books out there that speak to the idea of management as a science. Many fall short of that and instead reveal another “management du jour” plan.
If you are like us, you have read fiction books that you enjoyed so much you just did not want them to end. You develop a relationship with the main character and you feel you understand them. We have had this happen countless times with good mystery books.
