To the point

Short and to the point. Easy to listen to and sets the foundation for anyone looking to take a different approach to leadership.

More like a conversation than a book

I was expecting more from this title. At points throughout, the was disagreements from the pair leaving me to wonder why they choose to work thru it during the recording of this book, rather than ahead of time. I felt like this was still a work in progress rather than a guide that I'm looking for.
