Review # 1 was written on 2020-01-16 00:00:00 Mark Ballard Some interesting strategies and framing for coaching conversations with team members. I found the “conversations I need to have” prompt useful.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-02-20 00:00:00 Joseph Matthews "No, trust me. This one is really good." That's how I got roped into reading this rah-rah book on, as best I can tell, honesty in management and corporate leadership. Out of 300 pages, there's maybe 6, possibly 10, pages with something worthwhile to read; most of that is when the author is quoting someone else. There's nothing wrong with the book. It's all about being a better manager or leader. But unless you have an IQ of, oh, say, 90, you don't need this book to tell you anything that if you don't already know you'll never understand, anyway. Some of the "instructive" stories are interesting -- albeit pathetic -- to read, if you're into objective proof of the stupidity of management in general. Don't waste your time. There's nothing here. Move on along.
