Great book, but I need more!

This is a must read, but it really needs a pdf to accompany it!
There are so many great nuggets, ideas, and principles I cannot fully retain it all driving using the audio. I'll buy the book too, but I feel the audio book would be better served by including a download able outline.
Once again I must reiterate. This is a great book Thank you for sharing this and teaching me how I can improve!

Must read for most people

Good book for developing people or anyone wanting to know how their role and going that extra mile can mean so much to other people and the important part it plays in every company. Good read for people who doubt themselves.

My previous manager made (yes made) me read this when I was getting frustrated with my career stagnation

Good insights and no longer stagnant!
