The Ideal Team Player

When it comes to finding a team player for a faculty, board of trustees, a non-profit organization, a town select board, etc., you will want to read The Ideal Team Player book by Patrick Lencioni. I have read just about all of his books and they are terrific. What I love the most about his books is that the first two-thirds of the book read like a novel story, and the the last third provides non-fiction advice on how to deal with the setting of the beginning of the book.

In The Ideal Team Player Lencioni discusses three key characteristics of a Team Player; HUMILITY, HUNGER, and STAR. Here is a video of a brief view of the book, and you can meet author Patrick Lencioni.

ANOTHER Excellent Book Review

 

Here is a link to a new book review of Forward backwards - THE SAME as posted in the spring issue of Tomorrow's Child, a magazine from the Montessori Foundation. Launa Schweitzer, a long time educator and head of a school wrote the excellent review and did a wonderful job capturing the essence of the book. 


By the way, the price of the book has been reduced from $13.99 to $8.50 to enable more people to buy the book!
