I bought this book from Barnes and Noble and am so happy I did. It was great.
Good book overall for aspiring upper-level leaders/managers. A relatively quick read. Author’s style is direct and down-to-earth. Personally, I found it helpful more in the sense of things to watch out for vs. things I need to change.
This is the most complete waste of time for anyone who wants to learn anything. It is so bad that I cannot even finish it!
An exceptional Book from the World’s leading coach. Must reading for leaders who want to achieve greatness. Jim Bolt, Chairman, Executive Development Associates, Inc.

Concepts are decent but I read this while flying across the Atlantic and wound up just leaving it on the plane for somebody else. Nothing to write home about. Incredible title and the concept triggered a lot in me as a leader however….
