WHAT ARE THEY SAYING ABOUT "TAKING CONTROL: Time Management & Communication Tools
For Community Association Management"

"Michael Pierson has written a very insightful book which should be read and its principles applied on a day to day basis by all professional association managers. It also should be required reading for volunteer members of association boards and committees as it affords thoughtful insight into community management which is the result of the author’s extensive experience in this industry. While the focus of the book is on "Taking Control" through time management and communication tools for community association management, an equally important message is that the goal of effective management of a community is facilitated through the education and empowerment of all homeowners."

John F. Stone, retired attorney who specialized in nonprofit membership corporations; also has served on boards of homeowner associations in Minnesota and California and has had extensive experience in the governance and financing of homeowner associations.

"This is really a great piece of work. It would be hard to imagine any CEO of a management company not forcing his staff to read and heed the message contained therein. Every manager needs to know that he or she is responsible for their own stress issues and they need to take control for themselves. This book is a clear and concise manual on how to do just that."

...I have been reading your book.. Not only is it well written and speaks intimately to the reader.. But all you would have to do is change who you are writing it to... The general public... Because it is pertinent to everyone... How to organize one's time.. one's path... Organizing one's life... Daily moments..Twenty four hours every day..

It is inspiring me to be more proactive and less reactive... It is actually a confidence builder and a game plan primer for living one's daily life in a well functioning focused manner..

It's almost as if you are using condo managers as an example but it applies to everyone... Not just folks in organizations.. But the regular guy or gal in life in school in marriage..
