I’ve been given a marvelous opportunity by Michael Port, who’s dared to ask me to review his second book, Beyond Booked Solid and kindly sent me a manuscript, pre-print (yes this is a first for me- I’m kinda psyched!)

                The same idea is apparent when Port pits delegation
                against collaboration. To Port, delegation means
                dropping your responsibilities on someone else, and
                forgetting about them. This means, you have no clue
                what goes on, in that department of your business,
                and as a result, you can’t refine it’s system. Of
                course, this depends on the size of your business
                and your desired level of involvement, but Beyond
                Booked Solid <STRONG><EM>is</EM></STRONG> aimed at
                the small business owner.

                Collaboration, in Port’s view, is all about
                iner-company communications. Quite similarly to
                <A title="The Marketer Review: All Aboard the ClueTrain - The Internet Marketing Bible" rel="self" href="http://www.marketerreview.com/files/../files/71a32cc73a91f823f246cde9d999f164-37.php">
                The Cluetrain Manifesto</A>, the word
                “conversation” comes up many times, and so do its
                principles, of concentrating on human interaction,
                in order to achieve success. Port goes so far as to
                demonstrate systems of communication, encouraging
                the asking of questions and creating a dialogue
                between you and your team, and your team with each
                other, in order to get the maximum from everybody’s
                talents, without sucking them dry.</DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/35F08798-9BEC-4A2C-9037-A2FBBB067E42/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
