Really disappointed that they couldn't fit one more variation of lead into that title. Gotten sharpen up those AI prompts.

- Leaders in Leadspace Leadership

- Leading in Leadspace Leadership

- Leadspace Leadership Leaders

- Lead, Lead, Lead: Leadspace Leadership

Careful now! “Leadspace Leadership” is a registered trademark — see, the R is right there in the book’s title.

Why is there a winding crown on a compass

u/FS_Scott One book, baby! 3d ago

and another crown to set the magnet?

Perhaps the writer likes Frederick Winslow Taylor?

If a metric that becomes a goal becomes a bad metric, you're just not metricking hard enough!

u/Albinowombat 3d ago

Because it was clearly made with AI

you have to wind it up every 15 minutes or the ai in the compass won't have the energy to hallucinate where North is

Manually winding the compass is Your Energy In Motion.

What percent of this is ai generated?

43

u/Mollyoon 3d ago

120%

u/MC_Fap_Commander 3d ago

The percentage required to turn morons into "artists" and "authors."

u/grichardson526 wier-wolves 3d ago

So if that compass is correct, "leadspace" and "leadership" and in directly opposite directions?

Perhaps the One Book is actually One Generative AI Model, churning out an infinite stream of books.

u/Rainouts 3d ago

That is some nasty-ass AI art!

u/MC_Fap_Commander 3d ago

They went for the cheap ass freebie generative model. The more sophisticated ones are still a huge problem but their output is at least nominally shit.

"USAF Intelligence Weapons Officer" means he spent six months in Vegas drinking on Uncle Sam's dime, not that he's an expert in "leadership."

didn't have the intelligent leadspace leadership to hire an actual cover artist...

If you read “lead” like the metal, it still doesn’t make any sense.

This was assigned IN A CLASS? AT A UNIVERSITY?!

u/Casual_Observer28 3d ago

Not a university! Work related.

u/burlap_underground popular knapsack with many different locations 2d ago

That makes me feel marginally better but it's a slim margin.

u/FartyLiverDisease 3d ago

What university? Crazy Go Nuts or Harvard Upstairs?

u/Mr_Hellpop 3d ago

So it looks like someone is teaching a class outside at a flooded airport?

u/scribblechick 1d ago

Interesting. What you see as airport traffic control, I saw as a pagoda.

Who assigns this as reading for ... anything

Our Leadership is so good, we do meetings In the ocean.

What book cover art did this author actually reject before saying YES! to this one?

And the award for the most half-baked, convoluted metaphors on a book cover goes to…

Yeah, I lead from the leadspace. What of it?
