Tribes: We Need You to Lead Us by Seth Godin



Tribes by Seth Godin is getting lots of buzz online. I'm looking forward to learning what it's all about. Here are a few quotes . . .

Publishers Weekly:
"Godin argues that lasting and substantive change can be best effected by a tribe: a group of people connected to each other, to a leader and to an idea. Smart innovators find or assemble a movement of similarly minded individuals and get the tribe excited by a new product, service or message, often via the Internet (consider, for example, the popularity of the Obama campaign, Facebook or Twitter). Tribes, Godin says, can be within or outside a corporation, and almost everyone can be a leader; most are kept from realizing their potential by fear of criticism and fear of being wrong."

Former U.S. senator Bill Bradley:
“Tribes is a must read for all of us. It’s up to each one of us to lead in today’s new kind of world.”
