Good chefs eat last

Simon Sinek gives a very pointed account of what is currently ailing leadership and management in many companies. He believes that managers have a duty to take much more of a back seat themselves and do everything they can for their employees. Only then can a team spirit develop, which is the basis for the success of the company. Sinek's analysis of the reasons for the current malaise and the consequences he derives from it seem superficial at times. For example, he calls for a shift away from viewing employees in the abstract as numbers, but reduces people to five hormones. In addition, he does not say a word about the now numerous findings on the human brain, the psyche and thinking, and their significant influence on interpersonal relationships. Some of his business examples have already been presented in other books and articles. But for those who are not well-read in this field, Sinek provides some interesting insights into corporate leadership as well as general tips for modern management behavior inspired by the US military. getAbstract rates this book as an easy read for in-between meals.getAbstract rating: 7Implementability: 5Innovation level: 6Style: 9
