Me gustó el libro, analiza la relación entre un lider y los seguidores, especialmente la causa, la que hace una tribu, como mantener esa cohesion al rededor de la causa.
Todos somos parte de una tribu, pero todos queremos interactuar, ser escuchados y encontrar nuestro espacio.
El éxito de una tribu radica en la capacidad de el lider de contar historias y mantener cohesionado al grupo con una causa en mente y una promesa de lograrlo.
Puntuación 4/5: Me gustó mucho, el mensaje es sencillo, pero no descubrí algo muy relevante.
Recomendado: A emprendedores que están iniciando sus armas en marketing de contenidos.

Amazing book, don't read this if you want to continue sitting back thinking if only this or that was right...next thing you will be actually taking some action, changing your life, taking a chance. Exactly what have you got to lose...just 4 hours of your life.

Loved the short easy to read book about being a leader and connecting others. I really like his simple, direct language and style.

It's hard to believe it took me so long to read such a short book. That can be discussed offline. For now, I want to capture a couple of passages that I found funny or valuable or both.
"I've encountered thousands (it might be tens of thousands of people) walking around with great ideas. Some of the ideas are really great; some are merely pretty good. There doesn't seem to be a shortage of ideas. Ordinary folks can dream up remarkable stuff fairly easily. What's missing is the will to make the ideas happen... A lot of us would like to believe that there's a Bureau of Idea Approval, or the BIA if you like acronyms. The BIA sits in judgement of ideas and blesses the best ones. Go ahead and hone your remarkable concept, submit it to the BIA, and let them do the rest. Alas, it's not going to happen like that any time soon." (p. 42)
"Curious people count. Not because there are a lot of them, but because they're the ones who talk to people who are in a stupor. They're the ones who lead the masses in the middle who are stuck. The masses in the middle have brainwashed themselves into thinking it's safe to do nothing, which the curious can't abide." (p. 64)

Seth Godin writes great blogs and writes OK books that read like blogs.
The ideas in books like Tribe are highly relevant, and important. Yet these ideas crave, and really deserve extended background and detailed examples. Instead they get...a bunch of little blog posts.

I love Seth's tone and writing- it's full of details and info, but also succinct, clever and purposeful. The anecdotes and experiences of others are inspiriting and he offers actions steps that are truly steps one can take when building a tribe, no matter what the cause/issue/interest. Definitely worth the read

The first Seth Godin book I've read (but not the only one on my to-read list) and it did not disappoint. It's super-dense, meaning that although it's under 100 pages, no sentence is wasted. This is one of those books that you can't consume too quickly, because there are a lot of big ideas and it takes time to absorb them.
Interesting perspectives, real-life examples, and motivating language, this book makes me want to head right out and lead a tribe. The leadership parts of the book were by far the most interesting, including the difference between "management" and "leadership".
Recommended for people dabbling with new ideas they want to execute, people looking for ways to become an authentic leader, and people who need that final push to get them to get off their butts and try a new idea out.

I feel a little weird giving a Seth Godin book four stars. Godin is a freakin' genius, and the book is full of keen insight and is brilliantly written. So why four stars?
I guess I just want to counteract the over-the-top, "You've GOT to read this book NOW" enthusiasm so many people have heaped upon this modest little book. Marketing people, especially, tout this book as a must-read, as if it will solve all your marketing problems.
Not so much.
This book, like all of Godin's work, is very inspirational. If you are totally foreign to or resistant to the idea of "tribes" in the modern sense, it's an excellent foundation for learning the principles involved. If you are entrenched in the status quo, it will rattle your cage. In a good way.
But if you've followed Godin's blog -- or any of the gazillion other blogs on the subject -- this all starts to sound as familiar as an old jazz standard. Godin's riffs are brilliantly executed, but they are not the panacea for all that ails your business. This is not a how-to book. But then, it doesn't promise to be one, either.
