The Starfish Files: One Leader¿s Account of Insight and Inspiration Under Duress by Hiam AlexanderMy review
rating: 3 of 5 stars
A leadership fable...this was a very quick, but interesting read. Though the premise is silly, the use of the story to quickly demonstrate the leadership/management points works out very well. The "mentor" of the book utilizes a starfish to promote 7 skills that managers and leaders mush have to meet challenges successfully. While none of these are new ideas, the approach and memory aide in the starfish does promote a way to remember the key learning points well. Could be a very useful book to share with a team as a basis for a weekend workshop or other similar team-building activities.
