Inspiring parable. Would be interesting to work for an organization that used these ideas.

I would give it 3.5 stars. I really enjoyed the parable portion of the book, as I could see how the application of internal support for an entire organization such as was depicted could be extremely useful.
However, I didn't love the add-on after the parable in which the author outlines his how-to of applying exactly what he thinks is the best way and the best sorts of professionals to bring in for dream support.
And I didn't agree with his position on dreams. It's not that he's wrong about the significance of dreams, per se, I just have experienced as a coach the greater significance in life of the issues that might be blocking our way toward creating a desired future.
That being said, I think this book could be an interesting read for anyone involved in corporate coaching or consulting or in the financial services industry.

Recommended by a friend and former coworker. I was not expecting this. I found myself crying and inspired. Love the idea!

Great ideas. Some cheesiness with the case study - would have been awesome to have used an actual case study instead of a fictional one - since that lends significantly more credibility to the ideas. That being said, there are great ideas here and you should take the hour or so needed to read the book. And then go dream!

Very inspiring. I love Kelly's message that "An employee is responsible for adding value to the life of a company, and a company is responsible for adding value to the life of an employee."
