In yet another page-turner, New York Times best-selling author and acclaimed management expert Patrick Lencioni addresses the costly and maddening issue of silos, the barriers that create organizational politics. Silos devastate organizations, kill productivity, push good people out the door, and jeopardize the achievement of corporate goals. As with his other books, Lencioni writes Silos, Politics, and Turf Wars as a fictional—but eerily realistic—story. The story is about Jude Cousins, an eager young management consultant struggling to launch his practice by solving one of the more universal and frustrating problems faced by his clients. Through trial and error, he develops a simple yet ground-breaking approach for helping them transform confusion and infighting into clarity and alignment. |

Written on May 17, 2008 Summary: Good book, good strategies Mr. Lencioni has captured the essense of corporate politics and create a compelling tale to explain strategies to reduce its impact on an organization. This book is definitely worth the few hours it takes to read.  Written on April 28, 2008 Summary: Must Read/Listen This book was fantastic. Out of all the companies I've worked for, I can't think of one that doesn't deal with Silos as one of their major problems. The book does a great job analyzing the problem across just about any business. With this and his other books, we feel we're well on our way to resolving some very real issues with our company.  Written on October 31, 2007 Summary: Total waste of time My boss made her "team" read this, apprently because her boss made her & all of the people at that level read it. Hint: if you think this book is profound you are so utterly irredeemably stupid that you shouldn't be a manager. I haven't seen any change in our workplace, except perhaps a downward spiral of more and more people saying "not-my-job" and "go through channels" which is completely contrary to the point of this insipid little fairy tale. Communication stinks. Cooperation is non-existent. Everyone is protecting their turf. Nobody trusts anybody. Everyone is too busy covering their arses and hiding their incompetence to give any thought to actually getting things done. If your boss tells you to buy this book, buy it used and with the leftover money get a good resume writing book. Written on October 11, 2007 Summary: Excellent explanation of how to solve this pervasive problem I have experienced the silos problem in many places and the explanations about the problem and the causes are spot on. The model that this book explains very well how to over eliminate the causes and overcome the problem. Managers should read this book. Written on October 5, 2007 Summary: Silos,Poltics and Truf wars Not your average Business book... Put in a story form so the reader is not bored with dry material... You need to look close to get the learning facts... A very good book would recomment to anyone with deparment disagrements... |
