This unique book on best practices focuses on the best P&P principles and practices from policy and procedure authors, including my own. While this book focuses on the best practices for writing, designing flowcharts, building teams, and using samples as references for writing any policy or procedure document, your best bet is to purchase either the "Establishing a System of Policies and Procedures" book or the "Writing Exceptional Policies and Procedures" book with this purchse as well.
