Review : There is a competitive advantage out there, arguably more powerful than any other. Is it superior strategy? Faster innovation? Smarter employees? No, New York Times bestselling author, Patrick Lencioni, argues that the seminal difference between successful companies and mediocre ones has little to do with what they know and how smart they are, and more to do with how healthy they are. In this book, Lencioni brings together his vast experience and many of the themes cultivated in his other bestselling books and delivers a first: a cohesive and comprehensive exploration of the unique advantage organizational health provides. Simply put, an organization is healthy when it is whole, consistent, and complete; when its management, operations and culture are unified. Healthy organizations outperform their counterparts, are free of politics and confusion, and provide an environment where star performers never want to leave. Lencioni’s first non-fiction book provides leaders with a groundbreaking, approachable model for achieving organizational health—complete with stories, tips, and anecdotes from his experiences consulting to some of the nation’s leading organizations. In this age of informational ubiquity and nano-second change, it is no longer enough to build a competitive advantage based on intelligence alone. The Advantage provides a foundational construct for conducting business in a new way—one that maximizes human potential and aligns the organization around a common set of principles. Read more
Review : As a small non-profit organization we struggle to do everything to advance our core values and to obtain measurable results. Lencioni is helping us understand that over-focusing on measurable results can create a number of problems that actually impact those results and can be detrimental to the organization as a whole. My shelves include a number of books on leadership, organizational development, and how to identify organizational problems like stagnation (loss of vision) or leadership dysfunctionality. This one book makes all of them pale in comparison with its simplicity and clarity.
