Publisher Description

In this groundbreaking audiobook, business consultant Patrick Lencioni turns his sights on the most important organization in our lives–the family. Lencioni realized the discrepancy between the time and energy his clients put into running their organizations and the reactive way most people run their personal lives. Having experienced the stress of a frantic family firsthand, he and his wife began applying some of the tools he uses with Fortune 500 companies at home, and with surprising results. The Three Big Questions for a Frantic Family is written as a fable, using realistic and humorous characters and plotlines. Listeners will be amazed how just a little bit of structure and a few minutes of follow-through each week can make the difference between drudgery and fulfillment at home.

"Matt and I read this together and it has changed so much of how I now see things. It has put so many things into perspectives. It opens up with a husband sharing with his wife that if his clients ran their business' like they ran their family, they would be out of business. I have felt that way so often in our family. I have felt on so many occasions the disorganization and chaos that surrounds life, because we all know life just happens and we never know what lies ahead. I am so happy we found this book. I am not a self-help book lover! I actually loath reading them, but this one is different. He spins it so that it doesn't feel like a self-help book, but it really does HELP!! If you feel like your family can be frantic at times, READ this book!! We are now implementing these tools into our marriage and our family. It has already MADE a world of difference!!"

    " Good stuff, but not nearly as gripping or inspirational as Five Dysfunctions of a Team. Most of this book is stuff that we were already doing, just not as intentionally as he recommends. It would be great to put this stuff into practice, but I suspect that my wife may not want to sit down ans systematize our family dynamics. Think I'll just take the big ideas and apply them as I am able. "
