Laughing aloud while reading a management book is not an everyday experience–and it happened to me dozens of times while reading The Ministry of Common Sense. Martin Lindstrom’s “common sense” approach is wise, humorous, and fundamentally practical. The book offers a path forward for engaging your employees in fixing broken systems to make work better and customers happier.

It’s a brilliant reminder that bringing humanity back to business just makes sense.
