Preface

A Note to Plan Ahead: If you plan to read this book while traveling, please download the Seeing Red Cars Toolkit PDF before you leave from www.seeingredcarsbook.com so you’ll be prepared to complete the Red Cars exercises as you go.

Seeing Red Cars is a metaphor for focusing on what you want. It acts as a visual trigger to remind you of the positive outcomes you are striving for and, when you stray off the track, to jog your memory back into the present and refocus on what you want personally and professionally. This book is based on more than 15 years of lessons learned from working with people, teams, and organizations that struggled as they were living and working in times of dynamic change. To help these and other companies better deal with the challenges, my partner Greg Stiever and I produced the powerful film Seeing Red Cars that already, at the time I am writing, is being used by more than 500 trainers, coaches, and consultants worldwide as part of their existing training curriculums or to establish employees’ positive focus and engagement when they are launching important change initiatives. This book digs deeper into the Seeing Red Cars positive outcomes mind-set and guides you in making intentional changes that will have an impact on your life.
