NOTE: Blue-Collar Leadership & Supervision: Unleash Your Team's Potential is the blue-collar version of Maximize Your Leadership Potential: Beyond Management & Supervision and the content is nearly identical. It's primarily for those who have others reporting to them, especially those new to a formal leadership position or those who have had very little or no formal leadership training. Think of this book as "Leadership 101" for front line leaders. It's written in an easy to read format with 30 chapters that are three pages each. It can also be easily utilized for conducting a 30 day book study with your front line leaders. My first book in the Blue-Collar Leadership series, Blue-Collar Leadership: Leading from the Front Lines, was written as a tool and resource for high impact leaders to use to develop the front line, entry level team members that are so often underdeveloped and overlooked in the blue-collar workforce. High impact leaders can use it to transform those they lead into high impact team players. This second book in the series, Blue-Collar Leadership & Supervision: Powerful Leadership Simplified, is a tool and resource for developing those courageous people who have stepped up and accepted a position of leadership, most often, without ever receiving any formal leadership training. They're simply expected to lead without being taught how to lead. And, they do the best they can. This book will help them grow beyond supervision and management. They will understand what it means to be a high impact leader of people and how to become a more effective front line leader. They will learn how to move beyond managing people and to begin leading people. As I share the principles that allowed me to be promoted 14 times in the first 20 years of my career, they will learn how to get noticed by the right leaders and how to get promoted for the right reasons. With over 11,000 hours of leading cross-functional teams through change and transformation, I've also used the principles in this book to achieve amazing results with and through other people. After reading this book, you will have a choice. Will you remain a traditional supervisor or manager? Or, will you choose to become a high impact leader that also supervises and manages?

Finally, there is a book specifically created for the often overlooked and underdeveloped blue-collar workers on the front lines. My passion is to help leaders and organizations invest in those on the front lines or to help you invest in yourself. For the blue-collar workers I value so much: I've written the book I wish someone would have given me this book nearly 30 years ago when I started my career on the front lines. It would have changed my life then. It can change your life now. Separate yourself from the crowd quickly by learning how to master the traits High Impact leaders value most. You will learn how to get noticed for the right reasons and how to get promoted for the right reasons. You will learn how to become recognized as a front line leader worth following, and you don't need formal authority (position) because you will develop something better: moral authority (influence). I've made this book easy to read for the non-readers on the front lines. There are 30 chapters with 3 pages each. If you read a chapter a day (3 pages) you will easily complete the book in 1 month even if you're a non-reader. I've written this book specifically for the often overlooked great people with so much untapped potential on the front lines. If you're on the front lines it will help you better understand: - how to make an impact from where you are - how to be recognized for your abilities - how to position yourself well for promotions - how to increase your influence with your leaders and your teammates - how to be a better team player - how & why you should accept more responsibility - how to intentionally become more valuable to the company - how to become more valuable and successful as an individual - how to lead yourself well in order to create a better future for yourself This book will actually be great for anyone at any level in any industry, but the greatest value will be for those in the blue-collar world on the front lines along with the first few layers of front line leaders. Of course, higher level leaders also need to know and understand what's in this book to multiply the potential of those on the front lines.

"It's easier to compete when you're attracting great people instead of searching for good people." Mack Story"We just can't find any good people." is a phrase Mack hears far too often as he speaks to and interacts with leaders all across the USA. If you or a member of your leadership team has ever spoken these words, this book was written specifically for you. It doesn't have to be this way.Blue-Collar Leadership(R) & Culture will help you understand why culture is the key to becoming a sought after employer of choice within your industry.Culture matters because those who work there will determine who wants to work there.Becoming a sought after employer means, "People who don't work at your organization have a strong desire to work there."Becoming an employer of choice means, "People who already work at your organization have a strong desire to continue working there."Mack wrote Blue-Collar Leadership(R) & Culture specifically for leaders who want to become THE sought after employer of choice within their industry and in their area of operations.Sought after employers of choice attract great people and don't spend their time and resources constantly searching for good people.Mack has logged over 11,000 hours leading leaders and their blue-collar teams through process improvement, organizational change, and cultural transformation and speaks with his wife, Ria Story, on personal growth and leadership development throughout the USA as they help leaders transform their cultures and develop high performance teams.Although leaders in all industries at all levels will benefit greatly from this book, Mack structured the content specifically for the top leader who has never led a cultural transformation but is curious to find out what will be required. He'll help you not only discover why you should transform your culture, but also what to do and how to do it. Therefore, Mack includes many references and links to additional resources throughout the book that will support and accelerate your cultural transformation.Blue-Collar Leadership(R) & Culture is intended to not only teach, but also to serve as a tool, a guide, and a transformational road map for leaders who want to create a high impact culture that will become their greatest competitive advantage. It's a starting point for those who don't know how to start or those who want to become more intentional and methodical as they take their team to the next level and beyond.In Blue-Collar Leadership(R) & Culture, you'll also discover how to leverage the components of The Transformation Equation to create a culture that will support, attract, and retain high performance team members. To learn more about The Transformation Equation, visit GetTheTransformationEquation.com "My first words are, GET SIGNED UP! This training is not, and I stress, not your everyday leadership seminar! I have never been a part of anything like it. After 30 years in technology and two years in Concrete Construction, I have attended dozens and sent hundreds to the so-called 'Leadership-Training'...while all of the courses, classes, webinars, and seminars, had good intentions, nothing can touch what Mack and Ria Story provide...100% of the team that attended said that they were 'blown-away.'"

What Can Blue-Collar Business Teach Us About Work and Faith? The faith and work conversation is alive and well, but most resources focus on white-collar jobs, neglecting the majority of the workforce. When Dave Hataj realized he needed to go home and take over the family gear shop, he didn’t expect it to become a spiritually transformative season of his life. Yet as he began to think about what it meant to be a Christian in business, he discovered just how much our work matters to God and how blue-collar business can change people, communities, and even the world. Drawing on the stories of his business, Edgerton Gears, Dave teaches you how to cultivate true inner goodness, meaning, and mission at work—no matter what you do. Your workplace can and should be a place of significance.

"Where there's a will, there's a way; where there's a team, there's more than one way." Rex Murphy The biggest challenge in process improvement and cultural transformation isn't identifying the problems. It's execution: implementing and sustaining the solutions.

Blue-Collar Kaizen is a resource for anyone in any position who is, or will be, leading a team through process improvement and change. This book will help you take the lead in creating a meaningful, and sustainable kaizen culture one kaizen team at a time. Learn to engage, empower, and encourage your team for long term buy-in and sustained gains. Learn what it means to truly have authentic "respect for the people." The people will always know if there is authentic respect. Not because they hear it, but because they feel it. Mack Story has over 11,000 hours of experience leading hundreds of leaders and thousands of their cross-functional kaizen team members through process improvement, organizational change, and cultural transformation. He shares lessons learned from his experience and many years of studying, teaching, and applying leadership principles.

"We have far more than we need to succeed on the outside. The question is do we have what we need to succeed on the inside?" Mack Story High Impact leaders align their habits with key values in order to maximize their influence. These 10 values are common sense. However, they are not always common practice. These 10 values will help you build trust and accelerate relationship building. Those mastering these 10 values will be able to lead with speed as they develop 360 of influence from wherever they are. THE VALUE OF VISION Vision is the foundation of hope. THE VALUE OF MODELING Someone is always watching you. THE VALUE OF RESPONSIBILITY When we take responsibility, we take control. THE VALUE OF TIMING It matters when you do what you do. THE VALUE OF RESPECT To be respected, we must be respectful. THE VALUE OF EMPOWERMENT Leaders gain influence by giving it to others. THE VALUE OF DELEGATION We should lead with questions instead of directions. THE VALUE OF MULTIPLICATION None of us is as influential as all of us. THE VALUE OF RESULTS Leaders like to make things happen. THE VALUE OF SIGNIFICANCE Are you going to settle for success? Why we do what we do is about our purpose. How we do what we do is about our performance. What we do will determine our potential. Where these three components overlap, you will achieve a HIGH IMPACT."

Eight of the last twelve presidents were millionaires when they took office. Millionaires have a majority on the Supreme Court, and they also make up majorities in Congress, where a background in business or law is the norm and the average member has spent less than two percent of his or her adult life in a working-class job. Why is it that most politicians in America are so much better off than the people who elect them— and does the social class divide between citizens and their representatives matter? With White-Collar Government, Nicholas Carnes answers this question with a resounding—and disturbing—yes. Legislators’ socioeconomic backgrounds, he shows, have a profound impact on both how they view the issues and the choices they make in office. Scant representation from among the working class almost guarantees that the policymaking process will be skewed toward outcomes that favor the upper class. It matters that the wealthiest Americans set the tax rates for the wealthy, that white-collar professionals choose the minimum wage for blue-collar workers, and that people who have always had health insurance decide whether or not to help those without. And while there is no one cause for this crisis of representation, Carnes shows that the problem does not stem from a lack of qualified candidates from among the working class. The solution, he argues, must involve a variety of changes, from the equalization of campaign funding to a shift in the types of candidates the parties support. If we want a government for the people, we have to start working toward a government that is truly by the people. White-Collar Government challenges long-held notions about the causes of political inequality in the United States and speaks to enduring questions about representation and political accountability.

It is vital that social work managers and leaders are able to deliver and manage effective supervision to their teams. Recent social work reports such as the Munro Review into Child Protection (2011) identified poor supervision as a barrier to good and effective social work practice and highlighted the need for quality supervision to become embedded within departments. This book demonstrates how both managers and their staff can engage with supervision with a view to successful outcomes. There are detailed sections on audit tasks and reflection questions to enable readers to increase awareness of their role as well as develop action plans for improvement in their practice.

Although there is great debate about how work is changing, there is a clear consensus that changes are fundamental and ongoing. The Changing Nature of Work examines the evidence for change in the world of work. The committee provides a clearly illustrated framework for understanding changes in work and these implications for analyzing the structure of occupations in both the civilian and military sectors. This volume explores the increasing demographic diversity of the workforce, the fluidity of boundaries between lines of work, the interdependent choices for how work is structured-and ultimately, the need for an integrated systematic approach to understanding how work is changing. The book offers a rich array of data and highlighted examples on: Markets, technology, and many other external conditions affecting the nature of work. Research findings on American workers and how they feel about work. Downsizing and the trend toward flatter organizational hierarchies. Autonomy, complexity, and other aspects of work structure. The committee reviews the evolution of occupational analysis and examines the effectiveness of the latest systems in characterizing current and projected changes in civilian and military work. The occupational structure and changing work requirements in the Army are presented as a case study.
