In this episode of Bookworm, Joe & I go back and fix a few of the ratings that don’t seem quite right. I also test Joe knowledge recall with some impromptu Bookworm trivia.
Bookworm
Bookworm #99: The Motive
In this episode of Bookworm, Joe & I cover another Patrick Lencioni leadership fable. We consider the responsibility of leadership, take a look at the five omissions of reward-centered leaders, and consider why they want to be leaders in the first place.
Bookworm #98: The Crossroads of Should and Must
In this episode of Bookworm, Joe & I cover The Crossroads of Should and Must by Elle Luna. We explore passion, purpose, and what it might look like if who you are are and what you do became one and the same.
Bookworm #97: Reclaiming Conversation
In this episode of Bookworm, Joe & I look at Reclaiming Conversation by Sherry Turkle. In our digital age, it’s easy to stay connected. Emails, text messages, and social media allow us to share snippets of our lives with others- without really having to look, listen, or reveal ourselves. Today’s author argues that we have lost the art of conversation, and makes the case that now, more than ever, is the time to get it back.
Bookworm #96: Triggers by Marshall Goldsmith
Do you ever find yourself reacting to something, then immediately saying something like, “I can’t believe I just did that?” It may not be your fault – at least, not entirely. Join Joe & I as we take a look at the triggers in our own environments and consider how to overcome them – without doing or saying something that we’ll later regret.

The rise of the Extroverted Ideal has led to a world that can’t stop talking. But where does that leave you if you find groups exhausting or prefer to work alone?
