I absolutely loved this. I’ll be buying a hard copy.
Jason’s direct approach to business and how he draws from his experiences is easily understood and I look forward to employing his insights to my own business.

This book is an odd mix of spy skills and business. There are some good moments - explaining the nature of cultivating assets is much like customer relations, for example - but it isn’t a perfect blend. The CIA scenarios make for more interesting material than the generic business recommendations, naturally, and the matter-of-fact methods of how to navigate these situations are fascinating. I found the first two thirds of the book more valuable than the last for that reason. Hanson’s narration was a bit generic and focused on a certain type of person: into guns, sports, probably a prepper. But he knows his audience - and if you weren’t sure, he tells you about his website and product line often enough in the course of the book. Stick to the spy facts.
