Easy, fun and practical reading

This was an entertaining book, combining my love of ST:TNG and my professional career. As an IT project manager, I'm always seeking new ways to understand my job and my people. There are valid business lessons to be gleaned from the stories. It is an easy read, fun to see how the basic concept is wrapped around the context of a particular episode.

Make it So: Leadership Lessons from Star Trek The Next gener

Especially insightful if you are familiar with Star Trek. Each of the lessons picks up an episode and speaks to the leadeship exhibted by the crew of the Enterprise. Easy to read, simple to understand. Check it out!

Outstanding way to cover a normally dull topic!

"Make it So -- Leadership Lessons From Star Trek--The Next Generation" is a delightful way to interject wit and wisdom into a normally dull subject. Taking sound principles of leadership and telling of their importance through the medium of "Star Trek" is a refreshing change from the usual manuals and guides on leadership. The authors,Wess Roberts and Bill Ross, have done a very good job of combining sound leadership principles with the story lines of favorite "Star Trek--The Next Generation" episodes and made leadership principles available to any and all readers. It does not matter whether you are a avid fan of the series, Star Trek in general, or a reader just looking for good advice, this book will deliver what you seek. I have recommended this book to my corporate learning center as required reading for their leadership seminars, it is that good. Whether you are in a leadership position at home, in industry, church, political or social world, there is something in this book for you.

An excellent book

As a full-time trekker and someone who's interested in good "leadership lesson" wherever I can find them, I bought this book as soon as I heard about it. It turned out to be even better than I had anticipated. "Make it so" is wonderfully well-written. The leadership qualities it presents are explained and exemplified in such a way that the book can be equally enjoyed by die-hard trekkers and people who don't know Star Trek at all. A great and necessary book.
