Nine Lies About Work

Marcus Buckingham and Ashley Goodall

In this timely and provocative book, strengths expert and bestselling author Marcus Buckingham and Cisco Leadership and Team Intelligence head Ashley Goodall expose nine lies running through today's organizations. From “people care which company they work for” and “the best companies cascade goals” — to “people need feedback” and “leadership is a thing,” these faulty assumptions cause dysfunction and frustration, resulting in workplaces that are a dark shadow of what they could be.

Through inspiring stories of “freethinking leaders” and based on extensive data, Nine Lies About Work debunks these myths and reveals the powerful truths that really motivate leaders and teams and inspire them to do great work.
