Another stupidly effective leadership fable by Patric Lencioni.
Don’t just read this.
Read it.
But in sum:
The 5 temptations CEO’s face are:
1. Prioritizing on status over results
2. Prioritizing popularity over accountability
3. Prioritizing certainty over clarity
4. Prioritizing harmony over productivity
5. Prioritizing invulnerability over trust
The challenge for CEO’s is to:
1. Always focus on results first. Status comes with success. Not the other way around.
2. Hold people accountable even if it makes you unpopular. Respect is adult, popularity is high school.
3. Make decisions based on clear principles, and don’t wait until you have certainty, because you simply can’t be certain all, or even some of the time.
4. Foster healthy and productive ideological conflict and debate. Make decisions. Then come together as a team once everyone has spoken their mind.
5. Allow yourself to be vulnerable by practicing radical honesty and candor. It builds trust. And you need that.
Great book.
I’m on to the next one.
Don’t just read this.

Fantastic read. If you are a leader, especially a CEO, you should read this book.

I didn't hear about this book until much after I originally read the 5 dysfunctions of a team. This book isn't nearly as good. It's extremely short and lacks depth and much insight.

Another of Lencioni's treatises based on an illustrative story and incorporating and clarifications important principles of leadership. Integrated with a conceptual model.

What a great little handbook on leadership! A concise but powerful fable outlining and connecting the 5 temptations and their impact on leading

Like much of Lencioni's work, this is an enjoyable fable that presents solid principles. Definitely useful for any leader, not just a CEO.
