Time, Talent, Energy by Michael C. Mankins; Eric Garton is an inspiring as well as informative read.
It starts with the idea that in today's funding rich world, an organisation needs to take a good look at how its time is spent and how to gain it back from the bottomless meetings that drain it. How to rely on A player teams when it comes to business critical projects that will pave way for you organisation's jump to the next level. How engagement is very important, so your employees bring their best self to the organization and feel empowered.
I found the talent chapter most inspiring with how a new model of Boeing was done within 5 years, how an A team in the race car world can slash the pit time down to half.
there's a reference to another book Founder's Mentality - which I liked and the usual formula of supporting your arguments with studies, graphs and good visual aids of what are good leadership traits.
