Talks about great companies and not so great companies

Had to read this for work for promotion. Unlike the other text we had to read which was based on factual observations this book is self-indulgent dribble. Talks about great companies and not so great companies. These companies did not work with writers or use prinicapls of this book. Don't waste your time.

Nothing Special

I had to read this for work. Meh. It just seems like another business management book filled with principles you should follow and all that jazz. If you have some spare time and like being disappointed from reading books, then you should read this.

See it, sat it own it. How great would business be if everyone would do this

If all of the staff at a company were to follow this principle, they would be in the Fortune top ten consistently. Excellent book for teenager and recent grads to read before they join the corporate workforce and again after. No blame throwing, take ownership!

Good Practical Book

Finished the book in a couple of days. I used this book as a rally for my team this year, encouraging above the line attitudes.
