Business uber-guru Tom Peters is back with his first book in a decade, The Little Big Things. In this age of economic recession and financial uncertainty, the patented Peters approach to business and management—no-nonsense, witty, down-to-earth, insightful—is more pertinent now than ever. As essential for small-business owners as it is for the heads of major corporations, The Little Big Things is a rousing call-to-arms to American business to get “back to the basics” of running a successful enterprise.

Reviews for The Little Big Things
4 ratings1 review
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I am not a fan of management gurus, but I like Tom Peters...have since 1992. His messages resonate with me - even in his staccato, ADD, stream of consciousness writing style.
Lots of great thought nuggets in here, and a lot to gloss over. Take what you find valuable, set aside the rest and look at them again and again for new value. But, if you don't want to read this, you can download an excellent summary of all 163 points from his website.
