Story
The Fearless Organization offers practical guidance for teams and organizations who are serious about success in the modern economy. With so much riding on innovation, creativity, and spark, it is essential to attract and retain quality talent, but what good does this talent do if no one is able to speak their mind? The traditional culture of "fitting in" and "going along" spells doom in the knowledge economy. Success requires a continuous influx of new ideas, new challenges, and critical thought, and the interpersonal climate must not suppress, silence, ridicule, or intimidate.

Story
Finite games, like football or chess, have known players, fixed rules, and a clear endpoint. The winners and losers are easily identified. Infinite games, games with no finish line, like business or politics, or life itself, have players who come and go. The rules of an infinite game are changeable, while infinite games have no defined endpoint. There are no winners or losers - only ahead and behind. The question is, how do we play to succeed in the game we’re in? In this revelatory new audiobook, Simon Sinek offers a framework for leading with an infinite mindset.

Communication is essential in a healthy organization. But all too often when we interact with people - especially those who report to us - we simply tell them what we think they need to know. This shuts them down. To generate bold new ideas, to avoid disastrous mistakes, to develop agility and flexibility, we need to practice Humble Inquiry. Ed Schein defines Humble Inquiry as "the fine art of drawing someone out, of asking questions to which you do not know the answer, of building a relationship based on curiosity and interest in the other person."

In the modern workplace, conflict has become a dirty word. After all, conflict is antithetical to teamwork, employee engagement, and a positive company culture. Or is it? The truth is that our teams and organizations require conflict to get things done. But we avoid conflict and build up conflict debt by deferring and dodging the difficult decisions. Our organizations are paying the price - becoming less productive, less innovative, and less competitive.

David Epstein examined the world’s most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors, forecasters, and scientists. He discovered that in most fields - especially those that are complex and unpredictable - generalists, not specialists, are primed to excel. Generalists often find their path late, and they juggle many interests rather than focusing on one. They’re also more creative, more agile, and able to make connections their more specialized peers can’t see.

There's an 80 percent chance you're poor. Time poor, that is. Four out of five adults report feeling that they have too much to do and not enough time to do it. These time-poor people experience less joy each day. They laugh less. They are less healthy, less productive, and more likely to divorce. In one study, time stress produced a stronger negative effect on happiness than unemployment. How can we escape the time traps that make us feel this way and keep us from living our best lives?

He was also producing for the ear. In the audiobook version of Talking to Strangers, you’ll hear the voices of people he interviewed - scientists, criminologists, military psychologists.

Story
Women today are working, juggling, achieving, succeeding, and beating expectations at every turn - and they are less happy than ever. Which is why they're turning to the expert who has helped millions of people find, focus on, and benefit from their strengths. From his decades of research at the Gallup Organization to years of walking business executives through the "strengths revolution," Marcus has gained an international reputation for practical, realistic, and life-changing advice.
Publisher's Summary
Your organization's culture is the key to its success. Strategic planning is essential. People's competencies should be measured and their weaknesses shored up. People crave feedback.
These may sound like basic truths of our work lives today. But actually, they're lies. As Marcus Buckingham and Ashley Goodall show in this provocative, inspiring book, there are some big lies - distortions, faulty assumptions, wrong thinking - running through our organizational lives.
But there are those who can get past the lies and discover what's real. These are freethinking leaders who recognize the power and beauty of our individual uniqueness, who know that emergent patterns are more valuable than received wisdom, and that evidence is more powerful than dogma.
With engaging stories and incisive analysis, the authors reveal the essential truths that such freethinking leaders will recognize immediately: that it is the strength and cohesiveness of your team, not your company's culture, that matters most; that we need less focus on top-down planning and more on giving our people reliable, real-time intelligence; that rather than trying to align people's goals we should strive to align people's sense of purpose and meaning; that people don't want constant feedback, they want helpful attention.
This is the real world of work.

I would recommend this book for every manager
First, let me answer some of the critiques I read here 1 - The Narration is a personal thing, I found it profoundly effective 2 - The 'highly questionable' conclusion is probably a misunderstanding of what the book is about, this is not about 'here is what to do', I believe this should be read a balancing act against all the things we take for granted. Now here is my review So here I am, a good manager (I thought), following all principals of "Radical Candor", "Crucial Conversations", "What got you here", "Leaders eat last", "Act like a leader", "Seat at the table" and more, on top of extensive training on, and actually building teams. I thought I got this! Then comes along this book and I am so grateful that it shook me up the way it did. This book is an important reminder to all of us to not lose sight of what is important and how some things that we take for granted like 'feedback' and 'balanced leadership' may actually be not where we should focus!. This book was a good wake up call to keep my critical thinking hat on while absorbing leadership training, a good reminder that human beings are infinitely complex and we must stop squaring them into round holes! The audio performance I found to be very good, it did put a smile on my face and some of my most commented-on LinkedIn posts came from it! It is probably second only to "Seat at the table" of my all-time top reads!

Not my favorite work of Buckinghams
I like a lot of the work Marcus Buckingham has done over the years but in my opinion this isn't his best work. I don't agree with many of the theories in this book and find they twist proven ideas to make them come across as negative and then base their opposing theory on one unique example in each case. Ashley probably shouldn't narrate either but it's not too bad at X1.4 speed when he reads. Just my opinion...

Interesting thoughts but questionable conclusions
I appreciate that the authors questioned many sacred cows and put forward some thought provoking ideas. However, as a person very familiar with the sacred cows they refute, I found their absolute declarations (“you can never...it is never true that...it is always the case that...”) problematic. This is especially the case because the research presented was thin. They draw many conclusions based on super leaders like MLK and JFK that don’t take into account the nature of corporate general management roles. There is even a whole chapter that uses the soccer player Lionel Messi’s dominant use of his left foot to refute the utility of competency models. Read this book with the same healthy skepticism that the authors encourage us to view suggestions from corporate talent departments.

It's fine
Selling these as "lies" smells a little of click-bait. The book does have some good tips on leadership and how to build a successful team. Both authors read the book. The one who reads the even numbered chapters is pretty good. The odd numbered chapters benefit *greatly* by being sped up to 1.5 speed, which sounds normal.

Actually is mind-blowing. Highly recommend.
Everyone wants to write a book on leadership that says something new, true, and mind-blowing, but that's actually very hard to do in practice. Some can shock by saying things that are controversial for the sake of controversy, but those tend to have little applicability. Others try repackaging and recycling old ideas that have already been rehashed a million times. But this one really, really did make me think and make me question a huge number of foregone conclusions. The reading style is also very good. I actually just saw Marcus Buckingham speak in Philadelphia yesterday, and decided to purchase the audiobook for my long drive home (despite the hardcover being a part of my attendance, meaning I now have this in all three formats, and still think it worth it). Less than 24 hours later, I finished this book, and I'm continuing to mentally digest this. I get onto kicks for different types of books, and recently that has been an interest in leadership, as leadership training is part of what my department does. Everything in this book is immediately relevant to my day-to-day work. And this will undoubtedly change my frame of reference and everything else I read (or to which I listen), setting the bar to be surpassed for me to accept the conclusions and assumptions of those other books on leadership or management. These two have written a very important book, and I'll be looking forward to reading much of their other work to come. Presentation style is also good, with alternating chapters read by each author (complete with British Charm Unit). As an American, I was still able to listen to most of it at 3X speed, because they articulate clearly and pace their reading consistently.

starts off strong, ends in ludicrous analogies
this should've been 6 Lies About Work, because at least the last three are REAL stretches of semantics that nit pick at definitions of what are essentially synonyms to try and position a cure for the "lie" that isn't exactly a lie, but instead a rigid mischaracterization of a practice....from there it ends on an overly dramatic telling of Martin Luther King's death as a lesson in leadership that is questionable at best.

Great info, much to ponder
I would rate this one as excellent through 8½ of the 9 lies. The other ½ is also great, but is a mismatch with the rest of the book. "Nine Lies" seeks to use data and the authors' observations to disprove a number of myths about the workplace. The data and examples used are excellent, and help go after many of the assumptions that lead us down bad paths as both employees and as leaders. Ever feel like your review doesn't match you at all? There's a reason for that. Ever feel like the "force fit" model of percentages of people fitting into certain brackets fails to give some their due, and over-rewards others? There's a reason for that too. Perhaps the best part is that the book offers real alternatives to many of the sources of these myths - things you can implement local to your team if not across your organization. This is one I'd really like to give 5 stars to, but, for a specific reason, don't feel I can quite get there. There are two things that cause me to downgrade the overall title - one in each of the story and performance camps: 1) Performance wise, Marcus does great. Ashley would be fine, but is very soft spoken and the tone of his voice is such that I found him very difficult to hear and understand when on the road - he just blended into the road noise. A guy's voice is his voice, but it seems like this could have been addressed in production in some matter. 2) During the 9th lie, there is an attempt to paint a long picture utilizing Martin Luther King and a tour the authors took of a civil rights museum in the US. MLK is among my most admired figures in recent history, so I enjoyed the story elements there, but perhaps 90% of it is really in a different theme for a different book. There was an element of it that was a match, but a huge section of it was obtuse for *this* title. It's great homage to MLK, but much of it very out of place for this particular title and the lie being addressed. In the end, both points (one for the lie, and one more directly related to MLK) are easily missed, which does them both a disservice. Overall, this is a great read, and one I would recommend - just don't get lost in the end. :)

An excellent and thought provoking book about work and leadership. However, the authors should not have narrated the book. The speech is often unclear, of varying volumes, and difficult to understand. The verbal inflection and pacing are not up to the standards of the best audible narrators.
