Author Chris Enss Releases New Book - Principles of Posse Management: Lessons from the Old West for Today's
Author Chris Enss is pleased to announce the release of her new book, Principles of Posse Management: Lessons from the Old West for Today's Leaders.
- (1888PressRelease) May 30, 2018 - Principles of Posse Management tells the stories of the lawmen and leaders of the Old West who organized citizens in the pursuit of law and order. This collection of tales reveals what Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson, and other legends of the old west knew about leadership with a clever twist on the classic shoot-em-up, black-hats-vs-white-hats tale.
Pat Garrett and Wyatt Earp, management experts? Expert management skills were necessary to quickly organize a group of law enforcement officers able to effectively keep the peace and pursue and arrest felons.
The actual work of transforming the frontier into farms and cities was carried on by the stream of settlers, but working with, or sometimes ahead of them were the business people who directed the conquest of the wilderness and law enforcement officials who helped protect their interests.
The business people brought capital and labor together, sent logging crews into the forests; built bridges, canals, and railways; bought, sold, and transported commodities; laid out town sites and planned cities; started industries; developing mines; and nearly always speculating in land. Often times their efforts were thwarted by criminal elements who kept the goods, services, and funds from their appointed destination. Posses were formed to make sure fleeing desperados were brought to justice. In the process civility was brought to the lawless territory as well.
Praise for Principles of Posse Management:
"Chris Enss’s engaging new book, The Principles of Posse Management, takes you back in time to the Old West, where with incredible detail and fun anecdotes, she reveals many universal leadership tools that were surprisingly effective in keeping order at such a lawless time. Subsequently, many of these same tools are needed today within our own corporate climate. Read this fascinating book and re-connect to these powerful principles from the past." --Sean Covey, Executive Vice President, Global Solutions and Partnerships, FranklinCovey
"Chris Enss successfully weaves together a most interesting series of Western tales based on the clever premise of posse management principles. With historically accurate accounts of some of the American West’s most infamous manhunts, and the posses and lawmen organized to track them, the read is enjoyable, educational and pure old west action and intrigue." --Ken Amorosano, Publisher, True West Magazine & Cowgirl Magazine
"Posses were created very strategically to catch the outlaws that sure had a “Never Give Up” way of life. I was fascinated by the stories of bravery that built our western lifestyle." --Lisa Bollin, CEO, Director of Design, Cowgirl Tuff Company
Principles of Posse Management is available for purchase in both print and ebook formats.
