Prescription For Lasting Success: Book Reviews
“On a bookshelf of management books, Prescription For Lasting Success stands out. It stands out because it is based on real-world experience and histories, not on theory or assumption. It stands out because these techniques have worked time and again, and it stands out because it is logical and makes sense. These are the factors that will allow it to stand the test of time.”

Past President of the American Medical Association
“It has always surprised me that so few companies/organizations can explain why customers and clients should do business with them. Dr. Reynolds’s 4 Ps get to the root of the matter – especially in describing the need to articulate a company’s purpose and passion. Organization leaders would be well served to understand and implement these priciples, as sustainable success is sure to follow.”

“Leadership takes on real life in Dr. Reynolds’s must-read book. It is filled with practical approaches and results-oriented suggestions. Challenges facing physicians and hospitals will be dealt with more effectively by everyone who reads this worthwhile contribution to the literature.”
C. Duane Dauner, President | CEO
California Hospital Association
“Prescription for Lasting Success is literally a masterpiece. It hits all the notes perfectly, talking about people and organizations and why they are successful and why they fail and even how they can be resurrected and healed. The book is not for the faint of heart nor is it written in academic jargon that masks the passion and joy of unbridled success. It is written by an exceptionally gifted author who herself has faced incredible challenges and accepted both defeat and success as treasures. I promise you that once you turn the first page you are in for a great learning experience.”
