Go Slow and Win

I am pleased to tell you all about a unique book brought to us from a fellow business blogger.

The Book: Slow Leadership: Civilizing the Organization
The Author: Our own Adrian Savage, blogmaster of Slow Leadership and The Coyote Within

Here's what I appreciate about how Adrian thinks - he is at the same time a traditionalist and a rebel. He loathes the status quo and does not flinch to call things as he sees them.

If you want a watered down PC business book, look elsewhere. Adrian's Slow Leadership is unique and has personality.

Although we did not really talk about his book, Adrian was a guest on my podcast a while back and the conversation was great fun. You can listen to that here. Adrian sent me an advance version of the book and I loved it and endorsed it. I was not surprised that I liked his book because I really enjoy his blog writing.

Adrian gets it - about so many things. And he has a wonderful sense of humor. The book covers a lot of ground in its 23 chapters, such as the following topics:

• The Leader's Role - the real one
• Go slow to go fast
• Building a healthy work climate
• Creativity
• Time - making wise choices about time
• Dealing with distractions
• Building trust
• Dysfunction

And much, much, more. Like Adrian, Slow Leadership is lively and frank. Buy the book! You will get a great book and support a generous and smart business blogger.
