Tell Me How I'm Doing: A Fable about the Importance of Giving Feedback

This is a business novel or fable which tells you two things up front: 1. The book will be a quick read (I read it in a little over an hour). 2. The book will be an easy read. For some people that is recommendation enough if the topic is one of interest to them! I admit that I like the genre because I read so little fiction that it feels like a pleasant change to read prose in more of a story form. While this book has a story, the story itself isn't as compelling as some others like it have been. But the content is outstanding. I have taught people and teams about feedback. I have worked hard to get better at it myself. I have read and recommended other books on the topic, but now, my understanding is deeper and broader than it was before. This book has me thinking about very specific situations where I can do a significantly better job giving feedback, and it has given me the desire to make those changes. If you are a leader, supervisor, teacher, trainer or parent you should read this book. The concepts described aren't rocket science but they are described and explained in a way that you will find very valuable.
