5 out of 5 stars Practicing What is Preached   March 17, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

As a social service administrator and educator in New Jersey, and the son of Bill Somerville, I am able to say that he lives and practices the ideas put forth in his first book.br /br /Family may be one's greatest support, but they are also sometimes the harshest critics. From the staff he hires, to the people and programs he helps to fund, to the car he drives, Bill Somerville has earned my respect. He is antithetic to burdensome bureaucracy and self-importance and he believes in the people with whom he works.br /br /His book, like his work, is to-the-point, without pretense, and applicable to many people and organizations.
