[[ASIN:031236265X Bullwinkle on Business: Motivational Secrets of a Chief Executive Moose] Disappointing!! Beneath a thin and not too cleverly selected veneer of reworked sayings and rehashed mishaps of the Great Moose and his entourage lies yet another advice to the executive ala Who Moved My Cheese (Limburger)These sorts of books are an annoying waste of time and contribute very little of lasting value to the reader. Any Moose fan would do better spending his or her money on the DVD collections of Bullwinkle or reading some of the autobiographies of top notch executives. You pick. The Great Moose deserved better.

I spotted this book and thought to myself, "This is either a funny book with boring business advice or a boring book with decent business advice." Before I knew it I was laughing aloud at the antics of Bullwinkle as Chief Executive Moose. Boris and Natahsa as the evil 'Konsultants' are too much. Mr. Peabody and Sherman are their usual curious selves, traveling into the past via the WayBac Machine to visit great moments in business. Then I found myself turning page after page in the training exercises that accompany each chapter thinking, "This guy, Hoover, read my mind. If my boss would listen to me once in awhile, this is exactly what I'd tell him to shape up our business." Bullwinkle on Business is a home run...funny characters in funny business episodes, topped off with practical, how-to business advice on building and sustaining powerful relationships with employees. Enjoy this book and, "May the Moose be With You!"The Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Leadership Fable
