Los Angeles, September 29, 2004 – “Managing is a minimum requirement for satisfactory performance, a step above inadequacy” according to Rosalene Glickman, Ph.D., best-selling author of Optimal Thinking (Wiley). “I am surprised that companies still stick to the old suboptimal management-employee paradigm. In today’s corporate world, every time a manager thinks suboptimally, profitability and productivity are compromised, and issues are unresolved.”

“In the Optimal Thinking work environment, the employees are optimizers. Optimizers achieve the maximum return with the least amount of risk. Good results, mediocre and even extraordinary performance are optimization signals. Optimizers embrace suboptimal thoughts, feelings, and situations, then ask the best questions to maximize results. They don’t suppress negativity. They don’t employ wishful thinking, and they don’t settle for second best.”
