Linchpin: Are You Indispensable? by Seth Godin

4.0

Few are better at what they do than Seth Godin, and I really liked this book. But, it's not his best. He rehashes quite a bit of material covered better by others, and I don't agree with some of his broadsweeping generalization (e.g. the purpose of public education is to provide a pliable workforce for the elite).

But, there are lots of great take aways as well, both for the employer and the employee. I particularly liked his discussion of art and the artist in the workplace. I'll be applying quite a few things I've heard here, and even the repeat material was a great reminder. Recommended for anyone who wants to live life intentionally, find meaning in their work and be better than average in this new world we're living in.
