Always Growing tackles a common leadership challenge: How to successfully motivate, develop, and empower a diverse group of people to work together and achieve remarkable results. David has risked so much. Accepting his first leadership role at Trendex has meant uprooting his family and leaving behind a comfortable and secure position. The only upside may be that he is moving back to the place he called home as a boy - a place where his sister, Kelly, still resides and operates a thriving garden center. David quickly realizes that he is in trouble.

If we embrace these elements, we can conjure more moments that matter. What if a teacher could design a lesson that he knew his students would remember 20 years later? What if a manager knew how to create an experience that would delight customers? What if you had a better sense of how to create memories that matter for your children?

We've all had experiences with two dramatically different types of leaders. The first type drain intelligence, energy, and capability from the people around them and always need to be the smartest people in the room. These are the idea killers, the energy sappers, the diminishers of talent and commitment. On the other side of the spectrum are leaders who use their intelligence to amplify the smarts and capabilities of the people around them.

Story
At some point in nearly every marriage, a wife finds herself asking, "What is wrong with my husband?!" In David Finch's case, this turns out to be an apt question. Five years after he married Kristen, the love of his life, they learn that he has Asperger syndrome. The diagnosis explains David's ever-growing list of quirks and compulsions, his lifelong propensity to quack and otherwise melt down in social exchanges, and his clinical-strength inflexibility. But it doesn't make him any easier to live with.

I don't recommend the audio version
i'm sorry Audible! I've been such a loyal fan of audiobooks for such a long time that to recommend the paper version over the audio seems to violate some level of trust on my part. While I feel that this book is definitely worth the listen, if you have a few hours to read it, if it would even take normal people that long, I would recommend reading it instead. It occurs to me after the fact that maybe the Saturday morning kids show type dialogue and voice inflection was purposeful, possibly intended to coincide with the circus themed title and premise? It had no such positive effect with me. I do my sincere best not to take myself too seriously, but it was a struggle to look past these base level irritations and gain the intended knowledge, which we have been using practically in a training I've been doing this last year, and which I do believe has value. that said, swim at your own risk. Read on!

Groan Fest and Manufactured Self-help Garbage
To be honest I didnt make it through the entire piece. It felt like a manufactured boy-band with a fake storyline. It made me feel like I was listening to an Amway pitch, all build up and no substance, AT ALL. The stories it told were very fake and it felt dishonest.
