The ultimate commando movie and an excellent method to federate a team. There everything : reward, punishment, challenge, ambition, game, etc.
Robert Aldrich (1967)
L'Elan Sociodynamique
The reference book on sociodynamics. To read only if you enjoy stylish mental gymnastics (only available in french). There are books easier to read, like "La Stratégie du Projet Latéral" (in french too).
American serie which is all about allies, opponents, bystanders, skeptics and power games. We don't really like the strategies which are used but it can be fun to identify sociodynamic positions.
Beau Willimon - 2013
12 Angry Men
The bible of the strategy of the allies : there's nothing to dislike in the incredible mastery of Henry Fonda at turning the juries one by one... thrilling !
Sidney Lumet (1957)
The One Minute Manager
If managers had to read only one book, it would be this one : 60 minutes of reading of simple principles that are useful to keep in mind. A must have !
Kenneth Blanchard et Spencer Johnson - Eyrolles (1981 - new edition 2007)
The Writer's Journey: Mythic Structure For Writers

François Truffaut - 1966

Moneyball
A movie about tanacity and the ability to follow a strategy against all odds. A movie on difficulties to be right on everyone.
Bennett Miller (2011)
Divergent
In the movie Divergent, the inner hero's journey (who am I ?) is also the outer journey (overcome trials). Not a masterpiece but a simple vision and an easy way to understand things.
Neil Burger / 2014
