商品描述

Shay was still angry but shrugged nonchalantly as if to say, it's not that big of a deal. "So, what am I wrong about?"

"You're not going to want to hear this, but I have to tell you anyway." Liam paused before finishing. "You might be working hard, but you're not doing it for the company."

"What the hell does that mean?" Shay wanted to know.

Knowing that his adversary might punch him for what he was about to say, Liam responded. "You're doing it for yourself."

New York Times bestselling author Patrick Lencioni has written a dozen books that focus on how leaders can build teams and lead organizations. In The Motive, he shifts his attention toward helping them understand the importance of why they're leading in the first place.

In what may be his most compelling fable to date, Lencioni introduces readers to a pair of new characters, Shay Davis and Liam Alcott, rival leaders of two very different organizations in the same industry. With sharp dialogue and unexpected plot twists, he takes us on a journey that culminates in a resolution that is as unpredictable as it is enlightening.

Beyond the fictional story, Lencioni provides a straightforward summary of the lessons from the fable, combining a clear explanation of his theory with practical advice and a simple self-assessment. In doing so, he teaches his readers how to avoid the most dangerous temptation that derails leaders and hurts the people they are meant to serve.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

Shay仍然感到生氣,但不以為意地聳了聳肩,似乎在說,這沒什麼大不了的。'那麼,我錯在哪裡?'

'你可能不想聽這個,但我還是得告訴你。'Liam停頓了一下,然後接著說。'你可能很努力,但你並不是為了公司在工作。'

'這到底是什麼意思?'Shay想知道。

知道他的對手可能會因為他即將說的話而打他,Liam回答道。'你是為了自己在工作。'

《紐約時報》暢銷書作者Patrick Lencioni寫了十幾本書,專注於領導者如何建立團隊和領導組織。在The Motive中,他將注意力轉向幫助他們理解為什麼他們首先要領導的重要性。

在他迄今為止最引人入勝的寓言中,Lencioni向讀者介紹了一對新角色,Shay Davis和Liam Alcott,這兩位是同一行業中兩個截然不同組織的競爭領導者。透過尖銳的對話和意想不到的情節轉折,他帶領我們踏上了一段旅程,最終的解決方案既不可預測又發人深省。

除了虛構的故事外,Lencioni還提供了一個簡明的寓言教訓總結,將他理論的清晰解釋與實用建議和簡單的自我評估相結合。這樣,他教導讀者如何避免最危險的誘惑,這種誘惑會使領導者偏離正軌,並傷害他們應該服務的人。
