Guide Review - Tribal Leadership – Leveraging Natural Groups to Build a Thriving Organization

Management consultants Dave Logan, John King, and Halee Fischer-Wright show leaders how to create and develop tribes in their new book, Tribal Leadership.

The book is based on a 10-year study of 24,000 people in two dozen different corporations. According to the authors, the “take away” from the study was that a tribal leader can make an organization thrive. Tribal leaders are leaders who know how to motivate and propel organizations forward.

Tribal Leadership provides insight from a diverse group of successful leaders and teaches readers how to use the tribes that already exist within an operation to maximize productivity.

This book is a great read and an interesting look at the impact different people can have on the success of an organization. I would recommend Tribal Leadership to business students and anyone who works in a management capacity.
