Part business book, part golf novel, Plugged resonates long afterwards and provides real world lessons that apply to the home, the office or the golf course. Chet McGill, the dedicated vice president of sales at AlphaMax Manufacturing, is under fire — Trident, their biggest client, is being pursued, aggressively, by a new competitor. At the same time, Chet is feeling off-balance as he preps for a golf tournament in which he’s partnered with Reggie Ward, Trident’s vice president of operations. Faced with big problems and with all eyes on him, Chet learns to get back to what's important to his company, his clients, and himself. Pluggedteaches readers to "shoot for PAR," a simple, proven method to achieve success in just three useful steps — prioritize, adapt, and be responsible. In the spirit of Who Moved My Cheese?, Krissi and Dan Barr offer a simple parable that is engaging, engrossing and empowering.
