Customer Reviews

"Excellent book! I bought the book after attending a symposium that the authors were keynote speakers at. After listening to them, I knew I had to have their book. And I wasn't disappointed. If you want to change the way you live to a more productive and positive way, then you have to read this book! You will change the way you think and act in many aspects of your life, and you will feel so much better! I am so glad I can just pick it up and reread it whenever I want! If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend you do! You won't be disappointed either!"

"Here's the deal: the more toys, gadgets, apps that I get, the less reflective I get. Maybe my inner voice, the one that helps me focus on who I really want to be now that I am grown-up just gets lost in all this din. It's disheartening and effectively disempowering. But then I picked up this little book. Truth be told, I picked it up because the authors are friends and I know them to be good people. I read the book and realized that what it did above all else is make me reflect. The book made me think about all sorts of things that I had let the daily brouhaha allow me to conviently ignore. I feel the better for having read and having regained the gift of reflection."

Anne Kinzel
"I highly recommend this book. It offers so many great practical tips for anyone, whether you?re part of an organization or just want to change your perspective on how to communicate better in your personal life. With all the negativity in the world, it?s wonderful to see how you can change yourself to be a positive and uplifting individual. It?s full of great advice for all ages on how to be the positive role model to others around you."

"The Be WUCA! Way is a great resource to fine-tune our thinking and the art of living. A book to be kept on the bookshelf, shared and referenced on a regular basis."

John Heitzman
"BeWuca is the best place to start learning about how to improve your life whether at work, church, home, or any organization you're involved in. BeWuca, the book, distills the last 100 years of self improvement research and techniques into a quick and approachable read. I read the whole book in two sittings.

Of course, just reading the book alone isn't enough. Change involves work! To say reading this book will solve all your problems magically, wouldn't be fair to you or the author, however, the ideas, techniques and philosophy will help you build systems needed to see the change you want to see.

Let me put this in more concrete terms:

I recently joined an organization where I had no official leadership role, but noticed that a lack of communication and distrust was preventing us from doing the work that was needed. Using the techniques in this book (ex. Find the good and praise it.), I was able in couple months to rebuild the trust and increase communication and understanding. This allowed us to get projects back on track and build better, innovative products for our customers.

As a result of applying the techniques in this book I've seen more innovation in our organization and I've had a disproportionate influence in the organization based on my title. If you're interested in driving innovation in your organization or increasing your influence without a change in title, role or position this is the book you absolutely NEED to read and apply to your work life."
