Mom, Inc.: Parenting As If You Mean Business - Tapa blanda

A wonderful parenting resource for all mothers who want to improve their parenting skills and at the same time motivate their children to become responsible, contributing members to the household. Highly recommended!--Colleen Alexander-Roberts, Author of "The ADHD Parenting Handbook and ADHD and Teens" "MacGregor uses lively examples and straight talk to show how time management, mission statements, delegation skills, goal definition, and other techniques can be easily implemented in parenting..."--Nancy Sundstrom "ForeWord Reviews "

A good corporate leader-no matter the size of the enterprise-knows how to keep a firm hand on the helm, motivate the people below her, empower them while remaining empowered herself, and keep control of the company and the people who work there. She must use available tools, such as a mission statement, time management techniques, delegation skills, and her own benefits package, to define her goals in raising kids, regardless of experience level or background. Seminars, books, consultants, and multimedia programs that develop business and leadership skills and encourage employee motivation have become a multimillion-dollar business. But where do most successful leaders and managers get their crucial first start? From their families. And though these are numerous resources available to parents in terms of children's health and development, little is directed to building the skills and strategies of mothers who are the most important leaders of all.
