The Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Leadership Fable (J–B Lencioni Series)
In The Five Dysfunctions of a Team Patrick Lencioni once again offers a leadership fable that is as enthralling and instructive as his first two best-selling books, The Five Temptations of a CEO and The Four Obsessions of an Extraordinary Executive. This time, he turns his keen intellect and storytelling power to the fascinating, complex world of teams. Kathryn Petersen, Decision Tech’s CEO, faces the ultimate leadership crisis: Uniting a team in such disarray that it threatens to bring down the entire company. Will she succeed? Will she be fired? Will the company fail? Lencioni’s utterly gripping tale serves as a timeless reminder that leadership requires as much courage as it does insight. Throughout the story, Lencioni reveals the five dysfunctions which go to the very heart of why teams even the best ones-often struggle. He outlines a powerful model and actionable steps that can be used to overcome these common hurdles and build a cohesive, effective team. Just as with his other books, Lencioni has written a compelling fable with a powerful yet deceptively simple message for all those who strive to be exceptional team leaders.Read more

The Machine: A Radical Approach to the Design of the Sales Function: 1
Don’t read this book if you’re looking for an affirmation of the sales status quo. Roff-Marsh argues that the marketplace has changed dramatically since the evolution of the standard sales model and that radical change is being forced on organizations—like it or not!
Here are just some of the radical changes that Roff-Marsh advocates (and sacred cows he slays) in this comprehensive and impeccably-argued treatise.
Salespeople should be inside, not in the field.
Engineers should perform necessary field sales activities.Revenue should be the responsibility of Operations, not Sales.
Sales should focus exclusively on the pursuit of new business.Only commercial relationships are truly important.
Personal relationships are more likely to be the consequence of good commercial relationships than they are to be the cause of them.Salespeople should be paid their market value in the form of a salary.
Piece-rate pay (commissions) should be eliminated in sales, just like it has been elsewhere.Sales performance should be mandatory, not optional.
Salespeople should be actively managed, and it should be a condition of their employment that they generate a commercially reasonable volume of new business.Salespeople should not prospect.
The marketing department should be responsible for replenishing salespeople’s opportunity queues daily.The qualification of sales opportunities (or leads) destroys value.
Salespeople should be selling to your competitors’ customers—not to folks who are actively looking for a new supplier.The Sales Development Rep role should be eliminated.
SDRs are one of many common examples of sub-optimization in sales environments. You increase the salesperson’s win rate but you reduce the total volume of business won.Salespeople should focus on selling programs, not products.
Unless a product is new and revolutionary, it should be packaged into a program of some kind (or it should be sold without salespeople).Shut down your branch offices and open (fewer) distribution centers.
It’s speed to customer that’s important (not proximity).The Machine is a field guide for the executive who’s prepared to wrestle sales away from autonomous field-based artisans in favor of a tightly synchronized team of specialists. Readers will embrace The Machine either to exploit the new sales order or to avoid falling victim to it.
If you employ salespeople and you’re committed to the growth of your organization, you really should read this book.

Only Sales Guide You’ll…Need
The USA Today bestseller by the star sales speaker and author of The Sales Blog that reveals how all salespeople can attain huge sales success through strategies backed by extensive research and experience. Anthony Iannarino never set out to become a salesman, let alone a sales manager, speaker, coach, or writer of the most prominent blog about the art and science of great selling. He fell into his profession by accident, as a day job while pursuing rock-and-roll stardom. Once he realized he’d never become the next Mick Jagger, Iannarino turned his focus to a question that’s been debated for at least a century: Why are a small number of salespeople in any field hugely successful, while the rest get mediocre results at best? The answer is simple: it’s not about the market, the product, or the competition-it’s all about the seller. And consequently, any salesperson can sell more and better, all the time. Over twenty-five years, Iannarino has boiled down everything he’s learned and tested into one convenient book that explains what all successful sellers, regardless of industry or organization, share: a mind-set of powerful beliefs and a skill-set of key actions, including… ÛSelf-discipline: How to keep your commitments to yourself and others. ÛAccountability: How to own the outcomes you sell. ÛCompetitiveness: How to embrace competition rather than let it intimidate you. ÛResourcefulness: How to blend your imagination, experience, and knowledge into unique solutions. ÛStorytelling: How to create deeper relationships by presenting a story in which the client is the hero and you’re their guide. ÛDiagnosing: How to look below the surface to figure out someone else’s real challenges and needs. Once you learn Iannarino’s core strategies, picking up the specific tactics for your product and customers will be that much easier. Whether you sell to big companies, small companies, or individual consumers, this is the book you’ll turn to again and again for proven wisdom, strategies, and tips that really work.Read more

Safety at the Sharp End: A Guide to Non-Technical Skills
Many 21st century operations are characterised by teams of workers dealing with significant risks and complex technology, in competitive, commercially-driven environments. Informed managers in such sectors have realised the necessity of understanding the human dimension to their operations if they hope to improve production and safety performance. While organisational safety culture is a key determinant of workplace safety, it is also essential to focus on the non-technical skills of the system operators based at the ‘sharp end’ of the organisation. These skills are the cognitive and social skills required for efficient and safe operations, often termed Crew Resource Management (CRM) skills. In industries such as civil aviation, it has long been appreciated that the majority of accidents could have been prevented if better non-technical skills had been demonstrated by personnel operating and maintaining the system. As a result, the aviation industry has pioneered the development of CRM training. Many other organisations are now introducing non-technical skills training, most notably within the healthcare sector. Safety at the Sharp End is a general guide to the theory and practice of non-technical skills for safety. It covers the identification, training and evaluation of non-technical skills and has been written for use by individuals who are studying or training these skills on CRM and other safety or human factors courses. The material is also suitable for undergraduate and post-experience students studying human factors or industrial safety programmes.Read more

Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead
**Now on Netflix as The Call to Courage**
‘She’s so good, Brené Brown, at finding the language to articulate collective feeling’ Dolly Alderton
Every time we are faced with change, no matter how great or small, we also face risk. We feel uncertain and exposed. We feel vulnerable. Most of us try to fight those feelings – or feel guilt for feeling them in the first place.
In a powerful new vision Dr Brené Brown challenges everything we think we know about vulnerability, and dispels the widely accepted myth that it’s a weakness. She argues that, in truth, vulnerability is strength and when we shut ourselves off from vulnerability – from revealing our true selves – we distance ourselves from the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives.
Daring Greatly is the culmination of 12 years of groundbreaking social research, across every area of our lives including home, relationships, work, and parenting. It is an invitation to be courageous; to show up and let ourselves be seen, even when there are no guarantees.
This is vulnerability. This is daring greatly.

Guidara’s team would send a family who had never seen snow to Central Park with a sled on a snowy night or track down the cab that a guest had left their iPhone in to retrieve the device. And his hospitality extended beyond the dining room and into the kitchen, where he encouraged his entire restaurant team to learn continuously, tap into their own passions, and think like owners no matter their roles. We can all transform ordinary business transactions into an extraordinary hospitality experience. Through sparkling stories of Guidara’s journey through the restaurant industry, featuring the industry’s most famous players like Daniel Boulud and Danny Meyer, Guidara urges us all to find the magic in what we do – for ourselves, the people we work with, and the people we serve.Read more

Turn The Ship Around!: A True Story of Turning Followers into Leaders
‘David Marquet is the kind of leader who comes around only once in a generation . . . his ideas and lessons are invaluable’ Simon Sinek, author of Start With Why
Captain David Marquet was used to giving orders. In the high-stress environment of the USS Santa Fe, a nuclear-powered submarine, it was crucial his men did their job well. But the ship was dogged by poor morale, poor performance and the worst retention in the fleet.
One day, Marquet unknowingly gave an impossible order, and his crew tried to follow it anyway. He realized he was leading in a culture of followers, so he upended the traditional leadership model and put control in the hands of his crew. Before long, his team became fully engaged and the Santa Fe skyrocketed from worst to first in the fleet.
No matter your business or position, you can apply Marquet’s approach to create a workplace where everyone takes responsibility for their actions, people are healthier, happier – and everyone is a leader.
