QBQ! The Question Behind the Question: Practicing Personal Accountability in Work and in Life description
QBQ! by John G. Miller is a motivational primer aimed at purging the "blame, complaining, and procrastination" from the workplace. Miller believes that one of the hallmarks of today's business culture is a lack of personal accountability; he prescribes the cure in this series of short stories and personal observations drawn from his years of experience running his organizational development firm. His main point is that positive change begins with individuals changing themselves: "Instead of asking, 'When will others walk their talk?' let's walk our talk first." The result is choppy (39 chapters in 115 pages), and at times Miller's advice boils down to truism and cliché. Nevertheless, managers whose workplaces demand remedial, straightforward advice should find a useful tool here. --Harry C. Edwards |

A Great Reminder of Taking Action
|
| This book counters the prevailing mindset of blaming others in today's culture. Most people have witnessed when churches do poorly, whatever is judged to be poor, typically this is a decline in numbers or contribution, there is a mindset to look for the problem or person to blame. Often the mentality is to assign blame to someone or some group. Typically the elders will blame the minister, the minister will blame the elders, and around and around we go. This book deals with this issue of blame. Instead of asking who, we are to ask "what can I do to help the attendance, or "How can I be more evangelistic." The book deals with taking responsibility for situations. The easy solution is to blame, the mature solution is to fix the problem yourself. This is a quick book to read, and the message is a great reminder to us all. |
