The Myth: If you get into a good college, study hard, and graduate with excellent grades, you will be pretty much set for a successful career. The Reality: The biggest thing you won't learn in college is how to succeed professionally. Some of the smartest, most successful people in the country didn't finish college. None of them learned their most critical skills in an institution of higher education. And like them, most of what you'll need to learn to be successful you'll have to learn on your own, outside of school.

Doesn't meet the expectations of his previous book
Keith Ferrazi's first book, Never Eat Alone, is one of my favorite books. I have recommended it numerous times and have even bought it for a few friends. So I had very high expectations for Who's Got Your Back.
It's an OK book. It offers good ideas. Keith tells a good story.
But it is not a blockbuster. After finishing it, I can't remember a single story or a single idea that made me think deeply, that changed my mind or that I had to write down. Three stars for me.
