Anyone who has been through a highly functional team will recognize the concepts here. It covers all the necessary components of the necessary structure of building engine on regularity, focus and problem solving. It fills the gap for those who've never been to business school, don't have an ounce of management experience and not having had any years in corporate life.

It completely leaves aside the human component and you'd be right if you think it cold and dispassionate. Also, having lived a life in a corporate atmosphere, I find it rings hollow on how easy and straightforward it makes things sound. In reality, business is people and people are messy. What it does say, these structures will help you get through them instead of blindly stabbing in the dark for a solution.

A necessary read for anyone wanting to establish, grow and manage a self sustaining business. Even those who've done it before.
