About the Author

Dr. James R. Fisher, Jr. is an industrial and organizational development psychologist with a diverse work experience. He writes from this background, spelling out what needs to be done to get senior managers, midlevel managers, and workers off the dime and on the same page. What is unusual about his approach is that he examines work, workers, and the workplace as if still a chemist. This finds him equally sensitive and demanding of management and workers alike. He sees them both guilty of self-deception and self-delusion. Dr. Fisher has been a laborer at Standards Brands, Inc., during five summers while earning degrees at the University of Iowa, a bench chemist at Standard Brands upon graduation, then a chemical sales engineer, field sales manager, and an international corporate executive with Nalco Chemical Company. At this point, he went back to school and earned his Ph.D. in industrial and organizational psychology, first consulting, then joining Honeywell, Inc. as a management psychologist, later being promoted to Honeywell Europe as Director of Human Resources for Planning and Development. Dr. Fisher has worked and lived on four continents. In addition he has found time to be an adjunct professor, author, lecturer, and consultant. This is his seventh book. He resides in Tampa, Florida with his wife, Betty. He may be reached for keynote speaking at this e-mail address: TheDeltaGrpFL@cs.com
