Catch! A Fishmonger's Guide to Greatness (UK PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS Management / Business) - Softcover
Synopsis
Get hooked by Pike Place Fish's philosophy in "a visionary book that challenges you to find a better way to serve your customers and coworkers" (Howard Schultz, #1 New York Times-bestselling author).
Seattle locals and tourists alike flock to Pike Place each day to watch the fish fly. But Pike Place Fish is about more than just crowd-pleasing entertainment--there is an underlying philosophy at work that has made the market both wildly successful and internationally renowned. In an unusual combination of oral biography and practical business blueprint, Crother and the fishmongers take you behind the scenes at the famous market to illustrate the PPF philosophy and reveal the underlying assumptions that have made PPF the international phenomenon it is today. Catch! shows that to be "ordinary" is to be a victim of circumstances, responding to whatever comes one's way. To be "great" is to realize that anyone can live an extraordinary life. At Pike Place Fish, everyone is responsible for transforming themselves from ordinary to great by creating their own reality. The authors explore the issues of goals--financial, personal and humanitarian--and intention, showing how the crew itself creates these goals and works towards them in collaboration. Most importantly, Catch! examines the power of possibility and shows how you can achieve greatness in your own life. Catch! explores such guiding principles as coaching and acknowledgment that are lacking in many businesses, and shows that you, too, can be the prime mover in your own experience. "The lessons found in Catch! will not only change the way you work but will also change the way you live your life." --Paul Orfalea, Founder & Chairperson Emeritus, Kinko's Inc."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. With the publication of the mega-seller Fish!, the Pike Place Fish Market became famous both for its fascinating work culture and as a striking model for personal and business success. Catch! continues where Fish! left off, taking readers behind the scenes at the market for more life lessons. Written by the fishmongers themselves, the book offers some profound insights into creating powerful life experiences, with examples of how those insights look in action, in the fishmongers' lives. Catch! covers a wide range of concerns - the difference between 'being' and 'doing,' dovetailing the crew's and management's financial and humanitarian goals, sharing the power of language and personal thoughts and opinions, coaching and acknowledgment, and facing - and overcoming - breakdowns. The principles and stories from mongers like Jeremy, who overcame a brain tumor, show readers how to go from the ordinary to the extraordinary in all areas of their lives. 200 pages.
