Over the past 25 years, more than 100 companies that were failing, not making enough money or simply struggling to achieve their true potential, turned to David Lord to learn how to make their businesses work better, make more money and generate additional cash. David showed them how to transform their businesses’ systems of work into visual ones, resulting in improved employee involvement, quality, productivity and profitability. Now, David’s book shows exactly what he does to change struggling businesses into thriving ones, by employing the Visual System of Work. Using a 90-day implementation guide, the author gives practical, step-by-step instructions about how to make the work processes of a business visible, beginning with the collection of concrete data about how a business actually operates in the present time (rather than relying on peoples’ perceptions) and ending with ways to review, maintain and continuously improve the business’ (now newly transformed and invigorated) visual system of work. In between, the author walks you through each step of clear-cut exercises and assessments designed to revolutionize, revitalize and transform a business. Directives include how to solidify core values, identify key Lead and Lag measures, set up a “war room” and communicate information throughout the organization. David provides eight practical tools for helping a business get better including a Strategic Planning Sheet, a System of Work Diagram, a Scoreboard Sheet and (2) Time Management Sheets. The “7-Step Process of Improving Throughput Performance” helps businesses define and solve problems by identifying constraints (“slowdowns”) within the flow of work. Once constraints are recognized, the reasons for them (“interferences”) can be reduced or eliminated. A book about visual systems should be visually attractive, and this one is, using plenty of photos and illustrations as well as an engaging variety and size of fonts. Pertinent quotes and interesting factoids are sprinkled among the straightforward information in just the right mix to keep the book flowing, easy to understand and a fast (under two hours) read. Inspiring and practical, this book is a valuable resource for any business interested in working better, making more money and generating additional cash.

Management of our natural resources in both an efficient and sustainable manner is essential to our future. A critical part of this is learning what Mother Nature’s plants have to offer and how to cultivate them. Botanical Treasures provides this information for various plants, while also bringing together ethnobotany, economic botany, and agriculture in a system of nature-based renewable economics that is sorely needed in this age of environmental concern. The plants profiled in Botanical Treasures have the potential to produce a broad range of raw materials for a variety of useful, commercial products. Some can be grown on disturbed and marginal lands where little else can grow. Some contribute valuable functions to agroecology, have unique medicinal properties, or act as important sources for food. Think of Botanical Treasures as a user's guide to planet Earth.

If you'd like to improve your ability to learn and memorize English grammar principles by as much as 100%, 200%, even 300% (or more) … using simple memory techniques that you can learn in 15-20 minutes (or less), then this may be the most important book that you will ever read.  Believe it or not, it doesn't matter if you have a good memory or not.  The information in this book will teach you:  • Why memory is like a bicycle everyone can ride (with some minor personal adjustments).  • The real reason why no one should ever be squeamish about memorization or learning a language.  • Why and how some of the most famous memory skills are applicable to learning any language, especially English.  • How you can create a focused Memory Palace system for memorizing English grammar rules.  • Unique techniques that will have you literally “tuning in” on the English language.  • How to approach English grammar concepts in the most effective manner for memorization.  • Two secret ways you can use relaxation to aid the memorization process. These two methods alone are worth the price of this book because they will literally eliminate the stress and apprehension you face as you struggle to learn English vocabulary. (After reading this book, you'll never struggle again).  • And much, much more …  These techniques have been used by real language learners, most of whom previously considered themselves owners of a “bad memory” to make real strides in learning English.  Don’t worry! None of these techniques are rocket science.  Frankly, if you can memorize a short email address or the name of a movie, then you can use this system to memorize a language as rich and diverse as English.  Plus, everything you’ll learn in this book applies to any other language you might choose to learn. And with a little imagination, the ideas are easily transferable to memorizing other kinds of information too.  But there’s really no time to lose.  Every day that you are using this simple memorization system for learning English Grammar, you are literally stealing from yourself the joy of reading, speaking and understanding English at an advanced level thanks to how easily this book makes it for you to expand upon the natural abilities of your mind.
