I'm really glad you're adding this book to the curriculum. It contains a lot of good insights to be applied organizationally.
You may also be interested in the podcast here: http://www.econtalk.org/archives/2009/12/kling_on_prospe.html Perhaps it will provide good fodder for leading discussions and teaching points.
What books have inspired me lately? I'm slowly working through Covey's 7 Habits. Reading about 20 pages before I start working and thinking about how to apply it has been a great way to start my day and become more effective and disciplined.
