In this unique and groundbreaking book, business consultant and New York Times best-selling author Patrick Lencioni turns his sights on the most important organization in our lives - the family. As a husband and the father of four young boys, Lencioni realized the discrepancy between the time and energy his clients put into running their organizations and the reactive way most people run their personal lives. Having experienced the stress of a frantic family firsthand, he and his wife began applying some of the tools he uses with Fortune 500 companies at home, and with surprising results.©2008 Patrick Lencioni (P)2008 Random House Audio

Articulates how I feel daily.

Every example used is completely relatable. I can definitely take the model and apply it to my family and quickly see progress. It's about CONTEXT not PERFECTION!

Easy listen and practical

I appreciated the story format used to introduce the key concepts. And that it was followed up with more examples and explanation. Seems practical and simple enough. Ready to implement these in my family!

Practical wisdom for every family AND Organization

This fable is full of practical wisdom and it is a blessing that Pat put this together for a modern family to use as a model. I think because of the desire to touch every family, there was a tremendous amount of detail in the story that drug things along too much for my taste. The overall point here is perfection! Clarity is a must. I look forward to implementing this plan in my family.

Exactly what our family needed!

This book pleasantly surprised me in how the author so seemlessly presented the information in the form of a narrative. I love that I got to follow the journey of a family who was in great need of clarity and how they discovered it. I really resonated with much of it which makes it easier to apply for my own family. Also, the author give plenty of real-world examples so you can get a wide perspective of ways to implement the strategies. It was great!

Good principles

A bit repetitive but pretty good overall. I have read most of his business books so I already knew the principles but it’s interesting to apply them to the family.

Extremely practical, highly useful

I have read a number of Patrick Lencioni's books. This one, too, does not disappoint. I read a lot of business writing and Lencioni again does well to help us grasp new habits that could be complex if we were left to decipher them ourselves.

This book takes us through a family's trek to discern their own family values (using the 3 q's), and as a product of that, they are able to develop their own priority statements, which they use to develop short term goals while maintaining crucial priorities.

I initially picked up this title because it promised to answer the questions my wife and I have debated for so long. My wife has come out of it even more enthusiastic than I!

This was time well spent. My wife and I are already using it to define our own value and family priority statements.

Yes and yes!

Wonderfully written and easy to read and follow. I am so excited to put the information into practice!

Life changing book!

Bring home some good business principles

The story makes the key points easy to digest. The process driven part of me appreciated the breakdown and application guide at the end. great read for husband and wife teams.

Very informational and great perspective

Like all of Patrick’s books very helpful and helps with perspective and planning with professional and private life.

THE MOST helpful clarity guide for work and FAMILY.

I’m a member if Front Row Dads, an organization with the moto “Family Men with businesses not Business Men with Families”. With the amazing support from this group, it can still be tough to completely break clear of the insane over scheduling and lack of direction that happens with family life but not well run businesses. This book makes it easy - to run family life as optimized as possible, with very little homework and very little thought. Simple process but life changing for anyone that gets this book. Best wishes for your new and improved family life!
