PRAISE FOR THE BEEKEEPER
"As the story unfolds, a number of leadership principles derived from what Catherine learns about bees are revealed. Enlightening...as business fables go, this one largely succeeds."
―KIRKUS REVIEWS
"Weaving storytelling and science, Desiderio and Frino provide leaders from all walks of life with sound advice for generating growth―personal, organizational, and societal. This is a wonderful read that can transform your life and your environment!"
―DR. TAL BEN-SHAHAR, Author and Professor, Harvard University
"Much more than a leadership fable, through storytelling, Katie and Mike remind us of how important the Pygmalion effect is to human behavior. The examples of 'how to be' illuminate that when people believe in you, it can change behaviors and transform both individuals and organizations."
―FRANCESCA GINO, Author and Professor, Harvard Business School
"Written as a fable, yet a blueprint for growth by design, Desiderio and Frino eloquently help leaders focus on their people, improve communication, and be calm amid the storm. A must-read for anyone who leads people and wants to influence change within their organization!"
―THOMAS C. MURRAY, Director of Innovation, Future Ready Schools, and bestselling author
"The Beekeeper is jam-packed with tons of valuable take-home insights that can help you transform your life and business in whatever phase you find yourself in."
―DANIEL DEL OLMO, President, Sage Hospitality Group
"This isn't just a fable. It is a digestible treatise on how to Be in the context of leading, and being a member of, an organization. The reader is encouraged to look at the whole organization―the structure, the operating model, and perhaps most importantly its purpose―in pursuit of a much grander ambition that any individual could achieve on their own."
―BILL SCHANINGER, Author and Senior Partner, McKinsey & Co.
"It has been such a privilege to read and be(e) inspired!"
―LAURA KELLERS QUEEN, Ed.D., Author and Founder / CEO, 29Bison
"Desiderio and Frino have created an unassuming leadership tale that salespeople from the newest person on your team to the seasoned veteran can apply to take sales growth to the next level."
―BILL HAWKINS, Author and Founding Member, The Marshall Goldsmith Group
