There is a competitive advantage out there, arguably more powerfulthan any other. Is it superior strategy? Faster innovation? Smarteremployees? No, New York Times best-selling author, PatrickLencioni, argues that the seminal difference between successfulcompanies and mediocre ones has little to do with what they knowand how smart they are and more to do with how healthy they are. Inthis book, Lencioni brings together his vast experience and many ofthe themes cultivated in his other best-selling books and deliversa first: a cohesive and comprehensive exploration of the uniqueadvantage organizational health provides. Simply put, an organization is healthy when it is whole, consistent and complete, when its management, operations andculture are unified. Healthy organizations outperform theircounterparts, are free of politics and confusion and provide anenvironment where star performers never want to leave.Lencioni's first non-fiction book provides leaders with agroundbreaking, approachable model for achieving organizationalhealth--complete with stories, tips and anecdotes from hisexperiences consulting to some of the nation's leadingorganizations. In this age of informational ubiquity andnano-second change, it is no longer enough to build a competitiveadvantage based on intelligence alone. The Advantage provides afoundational construct for conducting business in a newway--one that maximizes human potential and aligns theorganization around a common set of principles.
