"For several years we have used Mr. Cottrell's book, Monday Morning Leadership, as the basis for our core leadership training program. We have purchased hundreds of copies of the book and the program has been so successful that our design approach for the class has been selected to be included as a case study in a new book ... I hope that Dave will be pleased not only at our mentioning his book, but also that it has had such a positive impact on leaders across our organization." |
