Too Stuck to Move is a candid, immediately applicable self-discovery workbook for executives, department heads, managers, business owners, HR pros, salespeople, trainers, educators, technology specialists, front-line employees, retail and service experts, and office staff. It gives you a measurable way to self-assess beliefs and values that could be hindering your success.
Are you too stuck to move? Are you sabotaging your own success? You might be impaled in place by a stick you didn't even know you had. Without self-evaluation, you aren't aware of how unable to move you've become. Like a scarecrow on a stick in a cornfield, you get impaled by a stick held together by complacency. It's a stick that gets longer as the years go on and you keep justifying the way you do things, how you treat others, and how you perceive the world.
Fortunately, "You don't have to be the scarecrow. That stick need not be your death sentence."
Thousands of people across North America - representing virtually every industry and occupation - have already taken and benefited from what's inside this book: The STICK Survey.
"Answer just 40 statements and scenarios, and you're on your way to changing the least flattering aspects of yourself. Whether your goal is surviving change, getting people to work together, or dealing with the negativity prevalent in the workplace, the reality is the same. We can't change others. We can only change ourselves." - Brien Norris
When the survey is over, you add up your score and gain instant clarity about where you are on the stick continuum. Is your stick longer or shorter than the North American average? Do you have a stick at all? What does it all mean?
