Leadership and Tribes, not Bribes
I know that I am late to the party.
The ship sailed and I was not on it.
I hope there is still room on the bandwagon for me.
I am talking about Tribes, a Seth Godin book that was released in 2008. (Yes, I know his latest book is Linchpin, and I hope to get to that one by 2012).
I just read it. I loved it.
I want to create a tribe. I want to create a tribe of local government employees who want to change the status quo - who want to rock the boat - who want to improve the system.
Surprisingly, these people are not as hard to find as you might think. I meet them every week in my leadership training classes.
If you are a civil servant in local government, RUN - don't walk - to your local bookstore or library and get a copy of Tribes. You will be able to read it in 2-3 days, and then we can talk...
...talk about what we are going to do together to change the culture of local government.
Let's get started. Who's with me?
