Fairy tales throughout history have been the vehicles for insights into relationships, inequities, and injustices that affect us all; now author Tom Brown has adapted the fairy tale to look at organizations and the workplace in new ways. Fiscal Fairy Tales are thought-provoking and introduce sensitive subjects in an intelligent, entertaining, nonthreatening way. The complete e-book includes a Foreword and12 Tales.

Product Description

Jak And The Bean Counter? Snowed White? The Tortoise And The Harried? Gridilocks? No, those are not spelling errors. They are four titles from Tom Brown's invigorating 12-part series of Fiscal Fairy Tales. Fairy tales throughout history have been the vehicles for insights into relationships, inequities, and injustices that affect us all; now, author Tom Brown has adapted the fairy tale to look at organizations and the workplace in new ways. Humorous and thought-provoking, Brown's Fiscal Fairy Tales introduce sensitive subjects in an intelligent, entertaining, non-threatening way. Here's how Business Life, the on-board publication of British Airways, reviewed these tales: "Finally, something completely different ... Tom Brown has written a series [that is] definantly and definitely different; they are proof that business books can be imaginative and useful." The complete e-Doc collection includes a Foreword and 12 Tales. Can you handle Gingerman, who gets promoted no matter how little he does? Ready for The Piety Piper, who does great work -- and gets fired? And just what kind of consultant is Rumplsheepskin? Meet them all. Here. This series of e-Docs is published by BrownHerron Publishing, with permission.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stories to evoke discussion, August 24, 2002
By A Customer
These tales are wonderful tools for opening discussions. As a team facilitator, I have used them to get people from different areas of company thrown together to serve on a multifunctional team to talk freely. I choose a tale related top the topic and place them around the room before the first session. By the second cup of coffee, they are the subject of conversation because they are so easy to read, with interesting subjects raised with a light touch. The topics covered are issue oriented, connected with values.
