When compared the the business books that claim to have a magic formula that applies to any business, person or situation, the opinionated perspective of one guy and his experience was a welcome relief. I admit, when I first started the book, the abrasive tone and grating voice of the author was offputting--I didn't think I was going to get through much. However, it wasn't long before I forgot all about the audio experience and became engrossed in the material.
Even at the times when I felt that the author was being harsh or I flat-out disagreed with the content, I could recognize the merit behind the underlying points. More often though I found the insights spot-on, and I often found that I had tuned out of the book because it got my mind racing in terms of how it applies to my situations. (Ironically, something that rarely happens with the "formula for success" type books.)
The book was packed with hard-earned wisdom from a lifetime of business and management experience. I finished the book feeling that I had gotten a lot for the time I spent on it.
