Really loved this book! It was fun, informative, and helpful. I'll definitely be starting my own dream book soon.

Although the author claims time and again that anybody can start a dream manager program at their place of work, it seems almost impossible to implement from the standpoint of a lone supervisor in a large library system. I think the premise is great, and I will definitely try to use parts of the program in the work that I do, but I don't know if it will ever go beyond that.

I'm fairly certain that if I had read this book 5 or 6 years ago, I would have agreed with a lot of the one or two star reviews. Yes, this book is not what I thought it was. I thought I was going to read a book that would tell me how to be a better Manager. It's a business parable. And yeah, since its' fictional, we don't know if it's going to work. There's no real world data on the success rate of this program, or how to go about implementing it. But what it did do for me was give me a good idea. And I think that's what the book was about. It made me really think, am I following my own dreams? Is my husband? What are his dreams, what are my workers' dreams? Why don't I know? I think these things are important, and it inspired me to find ways in my life to help people achieve their dreams. Whether or not it's through that specific program doesn't matter. What matters is that I try. And I'm going to.

While the concept of the Dream Manager is a good one, and should be addressed in all companies.
However, the way it is presented in this book leaves a lot to be desired. Only the last 10-15 pages had any depth. The previous 100 pages of a fictional story could be thrown out. I'll look for my fiction on the fiction shelves not the business section.
