successful concepts


The remarkable concepts developed in Great Boss - Dead Boss have been derived from two decades of management consulting around the globe and, particularly, from the vexing question:

Why do corporate improvement programmes only have limited or temporary results?

Based on a thorough academic background, the principles espoused in this easy-to-read novel expand on known management and organizational theory but formulate them into novel concepts which are both ancient and contemporary:  the compelling influence of tribal dynamics on the success of the modern organization.

The 23 Tribal Attributes and the 5 Tribal Dimensions, which are discovered as the plot develops, are clearly defined and form a basis from which leaders can assess the state of their own organizations and create a practical approach to build them into self-motivating supertribes.  Interestingly, these principles are as applicable to a government as they are to a commercial enterprise, to a sports team as they are to a church group, and are based on very strong value systems and ethics.

In many ways the application of these concepts can have revolutionary results.  Discovering that individuals are socially, emotionally and psychologically defined by their tribal membership gives any leader reason to sit up and take notice.  To find out that tribal roles are fundamentally different from accepted functional roles calls all organizational planners back to the drawing board.  To realise that corporate and individual communication is affected and often ruled by tribal constructs is ample food for thought for the media moguls.

Having all of this put together in an enjoyable beach-read makes it a must for every bookshelf  - and for every boardroom.  

GBDB Corporate Assessment and Training Programme

After readers have lived with Greg and Butch through their real life experience of discovering what really makes an organization tick, we often hear reactions like:

"I've seen the evidence all around me, why didn't I catch on before?" or
"How do I implement this in my tribe?"

Following the success of the book, the rapidly growing demand for training and implementation has led to the development of a GREAT BOSS - DEAD BOSS corporate assessment instrument, a Leadership Newsletter and a hands-on corporate training programme to assist leaders in implementing these principles effectively.

The training course (available in the USA) focuses on:

- How to build a super-tribe for your organization that will sustain passion and motivation

- How to develop your company's unique implementation strategy

- How to incorporate tribal dynamics into your corporate communications

- How to test the strategy under critical scrutiny from other leaders

- Your subconscious leadership style and how other leaders perceive you

- Your leadership strengths and weaknesses and what you should change

- Your most and least preferred leadership roles and how to compensate for these

Assessing the current state of your organisation in terms of the tribal dynamic provides a foundation to build a successful implementation strategy.
