Book Review: Fish! Tales: Real -Life Stories...
Summary: 5 Stars

This book was used for a skit at a convention. It had the audience in stitches, while being presented some "boring, but important training." After reading the book, I thought of many friends and relatives who would enjoy and benefit from reading FISH.

Summary of Fish! Tales: Real-Life Stories to Help You Transform Your Workplace and Your Life

Fish! Tales is Stephen C. Lundin, John Christensen, and Harry Paul's follow-up to Fish!--their enormously popular fable that draws lessons aimed at combating dysfunctional workplaces from the happy fishmongers at Seattle's Pike Place Market. In Fish! Tales the authors show how these lessons were put into practice at businesses both big (a major hospital and long-distance carrier) and small (a local car dealership and roofing company). Anyone who enjoyed Fish! (or, for that matter, Who Moved My Cheese?) or is looking for a motivational tool to help energize their own workplace, should find this short, upbeat primer worthwhile. --Harry C. Edwards

FISH! told the story of a fictional company that transformed itself by applying lessons learned from Seattle's famous Pike Place Fish Market. Now, with FISH! TALES, readers can learn how real-life businesses and individuals energized their workplaces--and their lives--by implementing the lessons from FISH!. Best of all, the book stands on its own for newcomers to the FISH! philosophy. FISH! TALES focuses on diverse companies such as a bustling Sprint regional customer service center, a quiet neurosurgical unit at a major hospital, and a brilliant car dealership. It features dozens of short takes--quick and easy ways to apply the FISH! philosophy right now. And it includes a detailed program with specific steps and action plans.
