“5 Dysfunctions” is a great, easy read for anyone on a team. I read this book in an undergrad class and again for work as a team building project. I also met Lencioni at a meet and greet and he was very genuine.

While it may look like a children's book on the outside, Fish! is an easy read for anyone. It is commonly used in companies as a team building exercise as well as in many college business programs. Similar to Who Moved My Cheese?, Fish! touches on leadership, psychology and incentivizing employees to be stewards of an organization rather than just a paycheck source.
Fish: A Proven Way to Boost Morale and Improve Results
One of the best books for leaders and managers to improve efficiency and cohesion! Yes, it definitely has some idealistic properties like many leadership books, but I really like Lencioni's writing style and use of graphs to drive home the message.

The Advantage: Why Organizational Health Trumps Everything Else in Business, (Hardcover)
A #1 NYT Bestseller for a reason. A great read that offers a new look at how to deal with life and problems as they come.

Highly recommend!
