In this book I show how any group of people can reach a state where they will consistently (and with relative ease) achieve their common goals - a state that I call 'predictable success'.

As you will discover, getting to predictable success is a practical, step by step process that is attainable by anyone. No special skills are required, no leap of faith is needed, there are no mantras to learn or secrets to divine. The principles of predictable success are simple, elegant and (once they've been pointed out) both obvious and natural. Because of this, there is little learning curve: most people grasp the underlying concept and the main principles immediately.

In fact, as you read, you will discover that both intuitively and from your own past experiences you already know much of what is required to get to predictable success. If you work with a team or group, it is likely that you have already been practicing many of the principles of predictable success sub-consciously. This book will provide you with the methodology and additional knowledge you need to harness those insights, enabling you to consciously guide your team, group or organization into predictable success using a structured, accelerated process.

The principles of predictable success are universal. While for the sake of clarity I have chosen to write in the primary context of business, the principles of predictable success will work for any group, in any situation. If you head up, or are part of a division or department, a project team, a not-for-profit, a government agency, a non-governmental organization, a charity, a soccer team, a church committee or a family - any group of people who are trying to achieve something together - then predictable success is for you, and you will benefit from reading this book.
