Thanks for the review on these books. I’ve read his “Obsessions of an Extraordinary CEO” — it was the first management book I ever picked up, and I liked it. I’ve been meaning to get to his other texts, so I appreciate the nudge toward “Death By Meeting” as the next one I should tackle. Thanks!

As a writer of “business fables” (I prefer to think of mine as “novels”), I’m well aware of the stigma attached to them, but the idea is to present great ideas in an entertaining way. I think Pat does a great job with the form–and he’s certainly been very successful with it–but it’s not for everyone. Then again, no form is. If you’re the type who just can’t seem to slog through the typical, dry business book, you’ll enjoy and appreciate the story as a means to an end.
