When there’s nothing on the radar.

I lis­te­ned to this while wri­ting this post, try it while you read :o)

After a quick scan of the Twit­ters­phere, I came to the conclu­sion that a post on my libra­ry is requi­red. Let’s go. After rea­ding the pri­zed Gagliar­di work, I loo­ked at a book that had pre­vious­ly attrac­ted my atten­tion. Lea­der­ship and Per­for­mance Beyond Expec­ta­tions by Ber­nard Mor­ris Bass.

First of all, this book wasn’t neces­sa­ri­ly very high in my ran­king when I deci­ded to tackle it, but it had an inter­es­ting pecu­lia­ri­ty, it was now­here to be found, even on the used mar­ket. It had become a collector’s item and the few copies avai­lable were pri­ced beyond a rea­so­nable thre­shold. ($250+)

So I went back to public libra­ries, unsuc­cess­ful­ly, and then to uni­ver­si­ty libra­ries. There was a copy of the book in my area and I deci­ded to go and consult it on-site (pre-Covid) and start extrac­ting its know­ledge. I must admit that although this task was rela­ti­ve­ly plea­sant, it was ener­ge­ti­cal­ly deman­ding. In order to make my trip as lucra­tive as pos­sible, I had to spend the whole day there until the end of the eve­ning. I must say that I have mis­sed these long ses­sions of calm but intense work.

Unfor­tu­na­te­ly, I still haven’t fini­shed rea­ding this book! I have ins­tead com­ple­ted the extrac­tion of his bibliography.

To be conti­nued tomorrow.
