HereHere's what one Black Belt reader emailed to me: "Dave - I received your book today by mail, many thanks. Couldn't stop reading, so I finished it in one attempt. It was a joy to read and at the same time confronting. Today all the pieces fell into place." Another Black Belt wrote this: "Well, during a discussion with my boss, I stepped out on a limb and preached Zero Defects, along with the mentality that each employee should have about Zero Defects. He bought it whole heartedly. In fact, 10 minutes before he was to do a presentation to the employees, he threw in a slide about Zero Defects!! Thanks for your support and guidance...I couldn't have done it without you."« less
