a good insightful, approachable, realistic book about work behaviour and management that actually help. Well read too

insightful

In a way... the book starts of saying that the content was put together based on request from MBA students and that a lot of it most people would know instinctively... so fair enough. Hard to criticise from that perspective.
I just thought it was all a bit “meh” and uninspiring. Sure, maybe a few aspects that were interesting to listen to but probably not worth this many hours listening to.
Honestly makes you think about the kind of students that go to take the author’s MBA course/ become senior managers...

Just Meh
