  • The One Thing You Need to Know  ... About Great Managing, Great Leading, and Sustained Individual Success (2005)
    Great managing, leading, and career success -- Buckingham draws on a wealth of applicable examples to reveal that a controlling insight lies at the heart of the three. Lose sight of this "one thing" and even the best efforts will be diminished or compromised. Readers will be eager to discover the surprisingly different answers to each of these rich and complex subjects. Each could be explained endlessly to detail their many facets, but Buckingham's great gift is his ability to cut through the mass of often-conflicting agendas and zero in on what matters most, without ever oversimplifying. As he observes, success comes to those who remain mindful of the core insight, understand all of its ramifications, and orient their decisions around it. Buckingham backs his arguments with authoritative research from a wide variety of sources, including his own research data and in-depth interviews with individuals at every level of an organization, from CEO's to hotel maids and stockboys.

  • First, Break All the Rules: What the World's Greatest Managers Do Differently (1999) by Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman
    The greatest managers in the world seem to have little in common. They differ in sex, age, and race. They employ vastly different styles and focus on different goals. Yet despite their differences, great managers share one common trait: They do not hesitate to break virtually every rule held sacred by conventional wisdom. They do not believe that, with enough training, a person can achieve anything he sets his mind to. They do not try to help people overcome their weaknesses. They consistently disregard the golden rule. And, yes, they even play favorites. This amazing book explains why.

  • Now, Discover Your Strengths (2001) by Donald O. Clifton and Marcus Buckingham
    Introduces a system for discovering personal strengths and talents, and being able to use them to create personal and professional success. Also shows how to help others realize their potential, using the StrengthsFinder Profile, a system developed from a 25-year effort by Gallup, based on the psychological profiles of more than 2 million people. DLC: Employee motivation.

  • Go Put Your Strengths to Work: 6 Powerful Steps to Achieve Outstanding Performance (2007)
    Beginning with the million-copy bestsellers First, Break All the Rules and Now, Discover Your Strengths, Marcus Buckingham jump-started the strengths movement that is now sweeping the work world, from business to government to education. Now that the movement is in full swing, Buckingham's new book answers the ultimate question: How can you actually apply your strengths for maximum success at work?

    Research data show that most people do not come close to making full use of their assets at work -- in fact, only 17 percent of the workforce believe they use all of their strengths on the job. Go Put Your Strengths to Work aims to change that through a six-step, six-week experience that will reveal the hidden dimensions of your strengths. Buckingham shows you how to seize control of your assets and rewrite your job description under the nose of your boss.

  • Life@work, The Essentials (2007) by John C. Maxwell, Ken Blanchard, and Marcus Buckingham
