Patrick M. Lencioni 
The Advantage [PDF ebook] 
Why Organizational Health Trumps Everything Else In Business

There is a competitive advantage out there, arguably more powerful
than any other. Is it superior strategy? Faster innovation? Smarter
employees? No, New York Times best-selling author, Patrick
Lencioni, argues that the seminal difference between successful
companies and mediocre ones has little to do with what they know
and how smart they are and more to do with how healthy they are. In
this book, Lencioni brings together his vast experience and many of
the themes cultivated in his other best-selling books and delivers
a first: a cohesive and comprehensive exploration of the unique
advantage organizational health provides.
Simply put, an organization is healthy when it is whole,
consistent and complete, when its management, operations and
culture are unified. Healthy organizations outperform their
counterparts, are free of politics and confusion and provide an
environment where star performers never want to leave.
Lencioni’s first non-fiction book provides leaders with a
groundbreaking, approachable model for achieving organizational
health–complete with stories, tips and anecdotes from his
experiences consulting to some of the nation’s leading
organizations. In this age of informational ubiquity and
nano-second change, it is no longer enough to build a competitive
advantage based on intelligence alone. The Advantage provides a
foundational construct for conducting business in a new
way–one that maximizes human potential and aligns the
organization around a common set of principles.
