The only original and entertaining management book I have read.,
By
This review is from: Tribal Business School: Lessons in Business Survival and Success from the Ultimate Survivors (Full Colour Hardback) (Hardcover)
The book was not what I expected: it was far better than I had expected. I had read some of Owen's previous books, and found them intensely practical. I was not prepared for a book which turns out to be both inspirational and insightful. His big idea is that by looking at tribes you discover what leadership is all about: you strip away all the "corporate life support systems" such as computers, HR, consultants and finance and you are left with the basics of leadership survival and success. I suspect some authors would treat this as a travelogue. Owen has clearly thought it through and offers up a whole series of insights which make you stop and think. The book is also richly illustrated with stories from both tribes and businesses which bring the points to life. And the photos make it entertaining as well: the first coffee table book of management? Maybe too much substance for that description. Not cheap, but very good value.

Leadership tips from Warriors,
By A. Moore - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Tribal Business School: Lessons in Business Survival and Success from the Ultimate Survivors (Full Colour Hardback) (Hardcover)
Beautiful and intriguing photos of tribal life from world-class photographer and adventurer, Anthony Willoughby. Includes his inspirations and insights on leadership skills, learned from exploring tribal territories. Jo Owen adds the wisdom and solid business writing that made his former two books essential in any leader's library. Learn the connections between the primal organizations of our ancestors and our modern day corporate tribes. Anyone interested in leadership, organizational development, or cultural anthropology will enjoy this unique approach and visual tour.
