Acerca de esta escucha
National polling indicates that for the first time in American history, people believe their children will not be as well off as they are. The primary reason for this? The lack of performance by government. The public sector receives trillions of American taxpayer dollars every year, and yet because of its seeming inability to run effectively, government is not delivering the level of service the people are paying for.
In Saving America, Mark Aesch tells us where government - at the local, state, and federal levels - is falling short and offers a coherent, nonpartisan, seven-step plan for rebuilding our nation's public agencies. The audiobook is not a political broadside or a theoretical academic tract; it's an accessible guidebook that helps local citizens, elected officials, and administrators make American government great again. The seven-step process will lead to measurable gains for organizations large and small, including school systems, municipal governments, entire states, and even the federal government itself.

At the end of 2008, Ford Motor Company was just months away from running out of cash. With the auto industry careening toward ruin, Congress offered all three Detroit automakers a bailout. General Motors and Chrysler grabbed the taxpayer lifeline, but Ford decided to save itself. Under the leadership of charismatic CEO Alan Mulally, Ford had already put together a bold plan to unify its divided global operations, transform its lackluster product lineup, and overcome a dysfunctional culture of infighting, backstabbing, and excuses.

It has never been harder to find good employees. Government handouts and programs, publicly traded behemoths with an insatiable appetite for front-line staff, and a burgeoning gig-economy has made hiring extremely hard for small business owners. The golden question is how do we attract good talent and then retain them long-term? How do I determine rates of compensation for my highest performers that are always demanding raises? How do I scale my business without having to constantly micro-manage my Team when they are in the field working? The answer is Pay-For-Performance (P4P).

At a time of political polarization and economic turmoil, we yearn for superior leadership. Few have demonstrated this trait better than Captain "Sully" Sullenberger, a man who embodies the core values that are at the heart of America: responsibility, optimism, integrity, loyalty, and compassion. In this follow-up to his best-selling memoir, Sullenberger engages nearly a dozen distinguished Americans to explore the nature of leadership, what it means, what it takes, and how it can be fostered and developed in all of our lives.

Powerful call to action, and the steps required to take that action
This is one of the most thought-provoking books I have read on not only the failures of government, but strategies for improving government, as well as the reasons why it is so essential that we do so. This strategy is also applicable to private sector businesses, and other organizations. I have read many books with many step-by-step plans for leading organizations, and I love this one, because it takes a fairly basic approach and operationalizes it with with very specific and manageable steps. I also really liked the storytelling, the examples and the narration. If you are the leader of an organization, or looking to improve your own leadership skills, this book is for you.
