review 1: Using insights from diaries kept by study participants in various businesses the authors determine what helps and what hinders workflow and personal fulfillment. Aimed at people who supervise/manage others and with a bit of relevance to team members who might not manage others, the brief takeaway is that nothing succeeds or breeds success like success and our goal is to do whatever we can to make success possible for ourselves and others. Remove obstacles, foster creativity and affiliations, create catalysts, and make a habit of checking in on what people need, not checking up on what they're doing.Good message, but a bit dry, at least on CD.
review 2: This is a great book for leading other people. It helps those leading others to see what really matters to ot
... morehers. It helps focus our efforts at inspiring and motivating others and to help those we lead make progress along the way to meaningful work and a healthy inner life. Based on a year of research with multiple companies, this book is worth the leaders time and reflection. The more meaningful the work, the more healthy our inner life and the more progress we make in our work, the more effective the company and the more creative and production people will be. less
