The QBQ! Workbook: A Hands-on Tool for Practicing Personal Accountability at Work and in Life

At first I didn’t like how the author states it’s victim mentality or an “excuse” when you complain about not being able to execute as well on your duties wheh you’re dependent on other people or departments who don’t do their jobs or give you the resources needed to properly perform your duties. However, there are a lot of great examples of ways you can reframe your mindset to execute by thinking outside of the box. Also, it’s helpful in working with others because instead of coming from a confrontational/accusatory place, you are being inquisitive. People are more likely to give you results when they feel they’ve reached the conclusion on their own. Lots of other great lessons packed into this book.

Excellent product and fast shipping!

I am a strong believer that better questions lead to better answers - The QBQ! Workbook is PACKED with great questions! It is one thing to read about an idea or approach, but hands-on application and deep probing found in this book will change your life. If you think I am exaggerating for one moment, then you obviously need to pick this book up to prove otherwise.Warning: this book may cause you a bit of pain (it did for me) but it is the kind of pain you experience when removing a splinter - and the kind of pain you are better off dealing with before greater consequences arise.The best part about this book is that it gets right to the heart of the matter in John's no-nonsense style. Authors take note: this is how you create an application guide for getting results!

Sometimes I wish some of the chapters had a little bit more depth but this is a very quick read that you can read a few chapters at a time or sit read all the way through. It makes some good points about how to take what others are saying and making sure that you really understand what they are trying to say to you

"Accountable People Take Action!" In a world full of quick fix formulas or the latest greatest management fads, there is one principle that is tried and true through the ages and will never cease to be effective in "fixing" the one person that is truly responsible for your success in life and business. That person is Y.O.U!I have been a huge fan of The QBQ! for years now and it transformed me from one of the modern day victims so prevalent in society today, to a full fledged owner of my actions and behaviors.......and that road less traveled, has made all of the difference! The new and exciting workbook is a natural next step in my personal accountability journey. The easy to use, workbook helps me go beyond just a knowledge of personal accountability, but to actually utilize it in my every day life at home and work! I can't recommend this workbook enough for anyone wanting to truly succeed at life!

This workbook, along with the book QBQ, have been awesome for me to use in my classroom. Having high school students read QBQ, and then answer the reflection questions in this workbook has been very beneficial to them. Personal accountability is something that I think teenagers don't think much about, so to see the meaningful conversations that have taken place so far in the classroom has been very rewarding, and all thanks to John and his QBQ book and workbook. I highly recommend this to anyone who would like to individually reflect on their own personal accountability, or who would like to take a group of people through the text and have group conversation along the way... even high school aged students! It applies!

Workbook was OK at best. Probably could have done without.

QBQ! Is a book I have read multiple times and encouraged teams at work to read. With the new workbook, our revisit of the book will be even better! Asking yourself the right questions, from the right perspective improves so many things. I encourage everyone I know yo read this book - it can be transformational if you do the work! This series makes a great gift for new managers too.Having bought multiple copies of this book and workbook I happily write this review (which I rarely do)

Everything in this book could be written in 10 pages. Very very dissapointing!

Good exercises

Easy read. Arrived on time.
