Description

This little parabolic adventure (with graphics) is about leadership and the dangers of monument making – where process, bigness, status quo and control become more important than the mission. The world today is replete with examples, a sampling suggested in this book’s "Postlude." Discover where you and your institution(s) fit - a "survival guide" for institutional, mission-oriented leaders.

Review by: Stephen Court on June 17, 2011 : star star star star star
Noland does it again. This title carries the Who Moved The Cheese vibe and gently but persuasively winds the reader around his finger until we're all wrapped up in the simple but powerful allegory.

We're left with fresh eyes to see. It's like someone flicked the light on, or switched us from black and white to colour. It can be a shock to the system but it is a good one!
