Book Reviews of Leadership and Self Deception: Getting Out of the Box

Book Review: If you like Covey..You'll find this an excellent read
Summary: 5 Stars

I've read hundreds of management , leadership and personal development books ... This one adopts the number one position - Overnight!

Whether you are struglling to influence your team or organisation to willingly embrace change; or find yourself as a parent with a "difficult" child, then this is for you.

They suggest that we suffer from 3 problems!

1 We create our own problems 2 We are blind to these problems 3 We resist wanting to fix these problems..

The book is a story (therefore any easy read!) of a new guy 6 months into his new company, attending his first review with the boss. He believes that he has done really well since he joined and is anticipating bouquets...

However, his boss (the enlightened one!) has a different view. What unfolds is a home truths session that could be you or I... dealing with the essence of why we create the problems we do with people.

Not until the final pages does the author reveal the solution.

Having read Covey, Senge, Peters etc. I found this a refreshing view of our eternal challenge with people.
