Customer Reviews
A life-changing book
This book provides value as a business strategy guide (for which it was written) and a life success guide. Lynch and Kordis have created a framework for understanding the actions and motivations of people at a very simple level (sharks, carps and dolphins), and they offer clear tools for managing communications and conflicts. At a deeper level, this book provides a roadmap for understanding the maturing process of individuals and organizations, as they progress through the common challenges of learning and achievement -- from separating from our safety zones to gaining judgement and influence over the business and personal systems in which we exist. A fabulous book for anyone who is looking for a fresh perspective and genuinely useful tools for personal achievement. Years after I first read it, Strategy of the Dolphin still is one of my business and personal bibles.
The Dolphin book has stayed on my credenza for years!
The Strategy of the Dolphin has been an incredibly influential book in my career. Concepts like "do what you fear" and "talk about HOW you're talking about it" are part of my everyday thought. The metaphor of the dolphin works very well: an animal that can outsmart a shark! When something isn't working a Dolphin does something different! That's a great lesson for life.
Fabulous book that will be of benefit for years to come.
I read this book when it first was published because I was in an executive position with a not for profit organization. Throughout the years I have referred to it and each time it has revealed another secret in my life style. I loaned it to a friend and never got it back, so am now buying my second copy. Truly a keeper whether it is used for business or success in your personal endeavors.
