by Seth Godin

Godin does a nice job of helping you sort through the question: Is it time to punt on this "[project/company/product/undertaking:]" or fight through the tough times? The reality is sometimes people quit too soon and other times too late, and it's nice to know which is which!

It's a good little read but not worth the $25 Godin's publishers probably charge. Like most of his books, you can skim read it in about an hour at Borders, enjoy a latte, and still have $20 left in your wallet. That's what I did. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/58373416 Leadership and Self Deception: Getting Out of the Box (Paperback) by Arbinger Institute
The authors uncover and unpack the true cause of most of our leadership struggles--compromising our OWN convictions and then constructing elaborate explanations for why things aren't working out. Very enlightening! ]]>
