4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent case studies of senior executive development., August 23, 1998
By

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Beyond Ambition: How Driven Managers Can Lead Better and Live Better (Jossey-Bass Management) (Hardcover)
I read this book years ago, before the Enneagram became so popular as a model for personal and leadership development. Kaplan only refers to the Enneagram in one footnote, but his in-depth case studies are the best examplars available of Enneagram Types One, Three, and Eight in business settings (he refers to them as "expansive leadership" styles). This book should be competing for attention from Enneagram enthusiasts with Goldberg's Getting Your Boss's Number. I've used both as resources in my work as an executive coach. I would give Beyond Ambition 5 stars if it were a little more accessible to the busy executive, but as a consultant I find his in-depth treatment to be top-notch.
