It’s good, but the examples given are dated and hard to relate to. Found myself doing my own research to find modern applicable examples.

will I use any of this knowledge anytime soon? no, no I won't. are my feelings validated about what I think some of my previous employers messed up? yes, they absolutely were.

Although it's focused on business, it's still a great book with a lot of interesting principles about how to improve what we do. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone trying to run any business things but even as a personal improvement sort of book, it's still very enjoyable.

Update: Read the book again as part of training at my new job. I think my old thoughts still stand. It's a great book for finding more focus in business or other long-term pursuits.
