How the Wise Decide<\/a>, The lessons of 21 extraordinary leaders. Bryan Zeckhauser & Aaron Sandoski. 2008. ISBN 9780307339737.\u00a0\u00a0 The authors ( Venture Capital\u00a0 associated) boiled the thoughts of the mostly US leaders into a coherent set of six principles:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Go to the source<\/li>\n
  2. Fill a room with barbarians<\/li>\n
  3. Conquer the fear of risk<\/li>\n
  4. Make vision your daily guide<\/li>\n
  5. Listen with purpose<\/li>\n
  6. Be transparent<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Then the authors\u00a0 wove the stories of the 21 interviewees showing these core messages. The idea works very well and it makes for an informative and interesting read.\u00a0 I could not help but think that over riding the analysis was thate individuals needed to be people of strong and good character.<\/p>\n

    Not\u00a0 a big book – so it would work for a four hour plane ride. and not take a lot of room.<\/p>\n
