The Pit Crew

Canadian motivational speaker and corporate trainer Bob Parker is revolutionizing the way companies and individuals do business. Through his Pit Crew Challenge program, he puts corporate teams into a real pit crew with a real NASCAR-type race car and real NASCAR-type drivers, challenging them to work together in teams to change the tires under pressure of the clock. It never fails. Members within teams end up competing against each other and teams end up competing against other teams. In his program, and now in this entertaining, eye-opening book, Parker uses this phenomenon to show how teams can move beyond individual and internal competition and work together to win, and keep, customers. Parker demonstrates how “flat teams” (non-hierarchical teams), like real NASCAR pit crews, can determine exactly what they want to win, achieving amazing success in today’s competitive marketplace.

Some people do their jobs in Arctic blizzards or fierce storms on the high seas. For some people, crawling through dark caves, climbing into sewers, searching through animal droppings, or even driving a car off a cliff is all in a day's work. Who does jobs like these, why do they do them, and how do they stay safe doing them? You'll find out in Dirty and Dangerous Jobs. The men and women who drive race cars get a lot of attention. But behind the scenes, all of these people have a pit crew that helps them win races. Pit crew workers must change tires, add fuel, and make repairs at lightning speed during every race. It's greasy, smelly, often dangerous work-and they wouldn't have it any other way. Book jacket.
