Editorial Reviews
From AudioFile
A superb cast brings to life the authors' lesson on how to manage the varied talents and personalities of people in organizations. They broadly classify people as Helpers, Challengers, Explorers, and Maintainers. Each group has three roles or subtypes, which the authors explain with short vignettes. The dramatizations, well done as they may be, will be distracting and overbearing for Type A learners. The essential message is that organizations need a balance to function smoothly. Most of the prescriptions for working with types and subtypes make sense, while a few stand out more for their excessive detail.

Kingdomality involves the story of a mythical king presiding over a chaotic kingdom in which nothing seems to get done because the subjects are unhappy, unreliable, and in constant conflict. Much like many nonperforming workers today, they have been assigned tasks that they are completely unsuited for. A visiting wizard grants the king one wish to straighten the whole mess out, delivering management consultant Lady Elizabeth, who introduces the book's theory on 12 personality types and the jobs that make them happy. To participate in the fun, readers are invited to take an online test at http://www.kindomality.com and discover their personality types. The results may be quite revealing and not necessarily what you might expect!
