The Motive

“Pat Lencioni blows up the myth that anyone with ambition can—and should—become a leader. This is a must read for anyone in leadership.”

—Dan Bigman, Chief Content Officer and Editor-in-Chief, Chief Executive Magazine

New York Times best-selling 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 addition to provoking readers to honestly assess themselves, Lencioni presents action steps for changing their approach in five key areas. In doing so, he helps leaders avoid the pitfalls that stifle their organizations and even hurt the people they are meant to serve.
