Title of the book is: A holistic approach to Business Performance Improvement.
Subtitle: Tailor a Continuous Improvement approach to suit your company culture.
Author: by Andrew Ettlin
Back Cover: No need for a bar code in this edition. An important aspect is that we will distribute by hand. Text below for back page.
'For the experienced Business Performers, this book is designed to offer an insight into the advantages and an example of an approach to Business Improvement. It is not the only way but it is tried and tested in world class companies and it works. For those new to Continuous Improvement, it offers a helpful introduction to a holistic business improvement system, an overview of important success factors and pitfalls, recommendations on how to implement tools and methods and a quick guide to see when to use which tools. '
'Consultancies are one of many tools management teams can engage and management must make sure the consultants tailor their approach to suit its business needs and culture and not vice versa.'

The book size is 175 x 240 mm and will need a 10-15mm bleed. The spine is not known at this stage exactly and will need to be updated once the printing is finished but I suggest a 10mm until I have the exact size.
Our company colours are Pantone 288, R0,G75,B141, C100,M79,Y17,K3. Attached are some other publications that give a sense of what we like to portray, Some words which might add to this are: professional, elegance, quality, sleek.
