4.0 out of 5 stars
Great leadership advice!, April 23 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: MAKE IT SO: LEADERSHIP FOR THE NEXT GENERATION (STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION) (Paperback)
As a die-hard Star Trek fan I really enjoyed this book. I think the authors got a real feel for speaking through Jean Luc Picard. The only reason I'm not giving this book a full 5 stars is because of the unnecessary and boring forwards that come at the beginning of every chapter. We don't need to be told at the beginning of the chapter what a great leader Picard is, we find this out from reading the chapter content itself. Also, I'm not sure how someone who is totally unfamilar with Star Trek would respond to this book.
Overall, as someone who has owned two businesses and now teaches, I found much of the advice very helpful, and this book is a great way to re-experience and get a different perspective on some ultra popular Star Trek episodes. I definitely recommend this book to any Star Trek fan whose is interested in not only becoming a better leader, but also performing better in the work place. You're Amazonian friend, Aurkid.

5.0 out of 5 stars
For everyone, Oct 5 1999
This review is from: MAKE IT SO: LEADERSHIP FOR THE NEXT GENERATION (STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION) (Paperback)
This book is great for Star trek fans AND for those who have never seen an episode. All the back ground information is available for understanding. But more importantly the book offers prudent leadership lessons and ideas for one to think about and build on. This book really builds a foundation for "outside of the box" thinking.
