About the book

Two dudes and a stick got the Hebrews out of Egypt – because they had a great boss. However, many of our “leaders” fail the leadership sobriety test: their thinking cannot walk in a straight line, their left hand does not know what the right is doing, driving their organization straight to death, litigation, or, worse – persistent suckiness. Meanwhile, people who understand what the people their teams, groups or organizations need become like Moses parting the waters.

Why do some groups, teams, and organizations survive while others die? How do we improve the chances that a group will thrive? In The First Seven Days, accomplished educator Guy E. White with contributors Larry Biddle and Richard Parkhouse tackle these vexing questions. Inside, Guy reveals the anatomy of a successful organization’s foundation and explains a sure-fire, seven one-hour session method for building a kick-ass team.

In this indispensable, step-by-step guide, we discover that the survival of groups, from bible studies to multinational corporations, depends on the same critical foundations.

The First Seven Days is a book that will transform the way that you build your group, team, or organization from the ground up. It’s a fast-paced, step-by-step guide for any group, new or old, that wishes to create a strong foundation built upon shared values, common vision, and individual and corporate goals with accountability. Provocative and eye-opening, The First Seven Days shows us the principles of successful ideas at work – and how we can apply these rules to making our own organizations become all that they are meant to be.
