DESCRIPTION:
Not an instruction manual I recommend this book to anyone who wants to make a difference. Anyone who is sick and tired of standing by watching things happen to them and is ready for a change. I read a number of reviews that were very negative about this book just before I started reading it and read it anyway. Very happy I did! No, you won't get step by step instructions here so don't look for them. The point is you already have what you need to lead.

It makes you see leaders can come in a variety of forms, they are not just made up of outgoing, exceptionally outspoken people standing in front of a crowd talking loud, being the center of attention. They can be a person in the background, creating a way for like-minded people to connect and move a cause forward.

That may be true, but in this economy and in certain corporations, it may also be a good way to lose a job. All rights reserved. From Publishers Weekly Short on pages but long on repetition, this newest book by Godin (Purple Cow) argues that lasting and substantive change can be best effected by a tribe: a group of people connected to each other, to a leader and to an idea. On that last note, the advice found in this book should be used with caution. Change is made by asking forgiveness, later. Tribes, Godin says, can be within or outside a corporation, and almost everyone can be a leader; most are kept from realizing their potential by
If you think leadership is for other people, think again—leaders come in surprising packages. Social media gives anyone who wants to make a difference the tools to do so. Consider Joel Spolsky and his international tribe of scary-smart software engineers. It's not easy, but it's easier than you think. Tribes will make you think—really think—about the opportunities to mobilize an audience that are already at your fingertips. . With his signature wit and storytelling flair, Godin presents the three steps to building a tribe: the desire to change things, the ability to connec
