Planning in Reverse

A Viable Approach to Organizational Leadership

By: Scott Ballantyne,Beth Berret,Mary Ellen Wells,John D. Musso

Planning in Reverse is an innovative concept designed to make organizations more successful by altering the perspective utilized in the strategy process. What is needed for organizations to thrive in this new environment of change and uncertainty is a short-term approach for long-term viability. In this book, tools and concepts regarding Planning in Reverse ('PIR') are provided so that any organization or department will be able to implement the PIR process. The PIR process is unique in that it will work in any organization whether they provide educational services, government services, private sector services, or the production of products. This system is of particular importance to the small organization that does not have the resources to overcome potential missteps. PIR suggests that long-term static strategic planning will continue to become less and less helpful and ultimately may need to be replaced completely by the PIR process for organizations to survive. Many large, well-known companies and organizations have failed even though they had long-term strategic plans. These observations indicate a need for a fundamental change in the planning process thereby suggesting that it is time for Planning in Reverse.

Last Run

A Novel

By: Leonard B. Scott

For the men of Sierra Company, 75th Rangers, the Vietnam war means more than loyalty to their country. It means loyalty to each other. You don't choose your comrades in war—they are assigned to you. And there, in the jungle, where there is no past or future, men from totally different backgrounds forget their differences and struggle with the basic questions of survival. The Last Run is an action-packed story of men at war—and of the unseen wounds our veterans brought home. Author Leonard B. Scott also wrote the bestselling Vietnam novel Charlie Mike, which was hailed by The Washington Post as “vivid, compelling . . . One of the finest novels yet written about the Vietnam war.” Like Charlie Mike, The Last Run is a story you will never forget.

The Iron Men

By: Leonard B. Scott

Leonard Scott's extraordinary first novel, Charlie Mike, was hailed by The Washington Post as "one of the finest novels yet written about the war in Vietnam." With several more highly praised novels to his credit, Leonard Scott now moves beyond Vietnam with a daring story of war and revenge that carries us from the second World War to the present. Centered on Berlin, The Iron Men tells of men who wear the Iron Cross and uphold the tradition of duty and honor." "It is the end of WWII and Germany is falling. Axel Mader and Jorn Furman are young paratroop officers and recipients of the Knight's Cross, Germany's highest class of Iron Cross. Axel and Jorn's unit is falling back to defend Berlin before the advance of the Russian army. But a unit of the SS has been ordered to shoot any German soldiers who retreat and SS Captain Horst Volker gives the order to open fire. Axel and Jorn escape but vow to avenge the comrades they loved, now dead." "As Germany enters its tumultuous post-war era, we follow Horst Volker as he becomes the most powerful and ruthless leader within Stasi, the infamous East German secret police. We also follow the lives of Axel and Jorn, one in West Germany and one caught in the East." "But their fates will be entangled with a soldier of the new generation. Jake Tallon, a washed-up American lieutenant colonel, is assigned to Berlin with the hope that he can save his career. When he falls in love with Kris, Axel Mader's daughter, he finds that he has something else in common with her father. Jake too, is an iron man, for he wears the Distinguished Service Cross he earned for valor as a platoon leader in Vietnam." "It will now be three iron men who join together in Berlin just before the fall of the Wall, to confront Horst Volker and the legacy of the past...." "Filled with the superbly described action and understanding of the fighting man that have won Leonard Scott both wide critical acclaim and a huge readership, The Iron Men is an exciting breakthrough, a stirring novel about men and honor."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
