This book is a must read for anyone interested in solving chronic challenges preventing the much needed business transformation. The author deftly highlights these challenges in a fictionalized context (although, many readers may be excused if they think that the author has somehow gleaned their own issues and documented them in the form of a business novel!). The setting is realistic, the characters represent their various functions, and yet are not reduced to mere cardboard personas who merely mouth the lines expected of them given their role/ function with their organizations.
The consultant and his assistant who come to the rescue of these hapless managers weave their magic. No, not by waving a wand or uttering incantations, but using the demonstrated techniques of asking the right questions, remaining silent while the group collectively puts its brains together to solve their never-ending challenges, gently nudging them when they threaten to go astray from their paths, etc.
The solution is not dished out to them in a spoon, but they are made to earn it for themselves. And, herein, lies the author’s own expertise and experience as a successful management consultant, having seen this all and having dealt with it on innumerable occasions.
There is a personal angle in the story too with a leading character getting affected by the goings-on at his work front, having a negative impact on his personal life, something that a lot of readers will be able to resonate with. The pace is quick, with the right interspersing of the personal and the professional that will leave the readers engaged throughout.
So, go ahead, pick it up and give it a shot.
We guarantee you; you won’t be disappointed!
