Rating: 2
Summary: Interesting
Comment: The story is very interseting. But the lessons learned by the author are really boring. I would only read this book if it was required reading for a class, as it was for me.

Rating: 2
Summary: Good Organizational Behavior Lessons, but a boring read...
Comment: I've read worse text books than this, but this isn't exactly a page turner either.

It gives a good feeling for the group dynamics and associated politics of a highly traditioned sport (Yachting) being "invaded" by the concept of a women's team that could compete on the mens' level.

"Do they try to keep it 100% female (to make a point), or allow a man or two on the crew and increase their chances of winning?" Suddenly, roles and goals that were not clearly defined at the beginning of this adventure are causing stress and confusion.

Interesting, but not riveting...
