"Being an avid music lover, the Geronimo Stone story line caught my attention and held it until the end. I was impressed with the writers' style. They bound together the "mobile of excellent management" and challenged the company's employees to work as a team to find a way to bring about change. The authors did this without losing the focus on the company's employees, values, or credibility. The book is creative, mysterious, and fun to read. Can't wait to see what happens in the next book!" Anita Lively, Assistant Director of Nursing, Roane Medical Center, www.roanemedical.org

"The tale of Geronimo Stone is very riveting. The progression of the story unravels the underlying business principles. The principles are applicable in everyday life as well. The story is well thought out, inspirational, and educates one in the process." Sela Pearson, nurse, author, speaker, UoPhx MBA/HCM candidate - Nashville, TN

"Geronimo Stone is a very entertaining as well as educational book. Craig Stevens has written an educational book that reads like a mystery. I found the book very well written. The strategies listed in Mr. Stevens Mobile are very common in the manufacturing world, but he has found a way to put them together in a very understandable and memorable way. I would, and have, recommended this book to others. Page 14
