When I received my copy of Unite the Tribes, I thought, "OK, here is another philosophical book about corporate business life". As I started to get into the heart of this book, I found this to be true. However,  Unite the Tribes, is a much more valuable resource than simple philosophy.

Unite the Tribes is not just another book about corporate life but rather a road map to follow with lots of practical advice. This book is useful for anyone in any job. Duncan knows how to analyze systems.

He has the ability to explain what works and what doesn't. More importantly, he gives the reasons why. Add to that specific suggested strategies, and you have a hand-book for success, in any business or organization, for that matter.

There are many books which analyze business systems.
Unite the Tribes is no exception. Duncan has the ability to explain ideas and concepts in plain English. He is a master teacher who takes time to make sure his students understand. He does not use the latest "buzz words" to make his point.

Rather, he offers clear, concise examples. He wants you to comprehend the business system. He encourages you to look beyond the surface. He wants you to see the impact of your decisions and actions on the entire system.

He describes "The Pillars of the Empire" as being the cornerstone for any organization. His message is clear from the beginning: unite and survive or continue to be divided and be conquered. Heed this advice or you may be out of a job. Valuable lessons for anyone, in any business.

Duncan emphasizes, this book should not be read once and discarded. He emphasizes, Unite the Tribes is a handbook.  This book is meant to be read and reread. Your copy should be "dog eared" with sticky notes and comments in the margin.

Duncan has taken his concepts and broken them down into easy manageable bites. There is so much information contained in this volume, you need reminders. He gives you permission to write your own notes.

I recommend Unite the Tribes to anyone in any business or system. I feel this is an incredible resource if you work in corporate America, a non-profit or even small or large business.
Read this book, live this book. You will be a success!
