Update, as of Nov. 29: I believe many of the goodies associated
with the book release are still available.

Denning's book is a centerpiece of "Stories Reveal the Soul of Companies" by Barbara Rose.

Steve Denning's new book The Secret Language of Leadership:
How Leaders Inspire Action Through Narrative (Jossey-Bass)
was released on October 15, 2007. I'm one of the
folks offering bonus gifts for those who buy the book (see below).

Here’s what other leadership experts have said about the book:

Financial Times: “If business leaders do not immediately grasp the vital insights offered by this book, both they and their organizations are doomed.”-- Stefan Stern, Financial Times, August 29, 2007.

Jim Kouzes: "I highly recommend you get it today and
read it tonight. Tomorrow will be an entirely different
kind of day if you do. –Jim Kouzes, Co-author of
the best-selling, The Leadership Challenge and A Leader’s
Legacy

James MacGregor Burns: "I don’t think I have ever read a more
compelling preface. And best of all, the advice Denning
gives to the reader about speaking and writing is exemplified
in the way he has written this impressive book."
–James MacGregor Burns, Author of Leadership

Larry Prusak: “Engaging and erudite, this book draws on very wide
reading and research to help any leader or manager master
the arts of narrative in a way that is both pragmatic and
original.”
–Larry Prusak, Co-author, What’s the Big Idea? and Working Knowledge
