Welcome to Litsy!

Thank you sooo much to all of our awesome volunteers for #Scarathlon Team Captains! @Clwojick and I appreciate you all so much! We‘ll be in touch with instructions soon @LiseWorks @PuddleJumper @Gissy @BookwormAHN @dabbe @Catsandbooks @Bookwormjillk @Emilymdxn @Laughterhp

I can't sleep this morning, so it seems like the perfect time to get started on this book for work. I've been putting it off since I'm not a fan of business books, but the dev group at the startup where I work is getting ready to split into teams. As this book is influencing the structure and method of the reorganization, we've all been encouraged to read it. So it's time for me to dive in.

My current reading status/progress across all the formats I'm using. A year ago I rarely read more than book at a time, never listened to audiobooks and rarely read an e-book. So much has changed. I'm pretty sure Litsy had something to do with this!

Audio (Audibe phone app) - Murder on the Orient Express
Kindle (digital library loan) - Someone Else's Love Story
Hardback - The Course of Love
Paperback - Team of Teams

More required reading for work.

NF Business Audio An interesting book on how to better manage our complex and complicated world. definitely not a precise how to but a good overview of how it works when implemented correctly and how horribly wrong it can go when not. I thought the examples given were solid and there was a lot of room for discussion, implementation and adapting one's own behavior. will have to purchase. +

While reading Team of Teams and the author, General Stanley McChrystal, compares two very different events, the ditching of US Airways Flight 1549 and the hijacking of Maersk Alabama. Guess what I realized? Both these events have been made into movies with Tom Hanks as the lead... Sully and Captain Phillips!

hoping to finish this (Team of Teams) before Sunday and rounding out 2016 as my most book bingy year ever.

The 3rd most-cited influential book in 2016 by the world's most influential minds across industries was this book. I really, really want to read this! Former Joint Chiefs head, he turned the War on Terror around--the WH wasn't exactly doing things right--and crushed Al Qaeda & the Taliban by realizing the the field of war changed. He found other industries changed in the same way too--from hospitals to charities to NASA. #BestBookRead #ReadToLead

Was expecting more game Theory but good look at the increasing complexity of the world.

Need to wrap this one up soon.

To succeed in today's world we need to be quick thinkers and faster doers. This book talk of how to change our traditional mindset to be more agile.
