Praise for Rick Crossland
“Very specific and very readable, The A Player is your strategic guide to transforming solid players into champions! The brilliance of Crossland’s book is that it’s for any employee who wants to be a top performer as well as any manager who wants to transform B or even C Players into A Players. It will help your organization achieve the performance you have versus the performance you want. Excellent!”
“Safelite AutoGlass is a company whose record-setting performance is fueled by our people. We strive to be a great place to work, with impactful leaders and talented individuals … the A Players. This book is a great catalyst to engage people to be their best. It offers a unique perspective on “what the CEO wants you to know.” I recommend it to anyone wishing to be a high performer and challenge his or her team to achieve new heights.”
“Topgrading is all about hiring only A Players, and Crossland’s book is a wonderfully practical manual to guide A Players to remain A Players, and it’s for anyone aspiring to be an A Player. Implicit in the book is a mini-MBA degree showing how A Players achieve great results. We at Topgrading, Inc. will use this book when coaching managers to move up to the A Player designation!”
