Did I enjoy this book? I did. I learned a lot, but it took a while to get through. I set this book down quite a few times to read something else. But I did pick it back up. There is a lot of information, but it is dense. I think the best approach for this book is to read the summary at the end, then go back and read the sections that you want to apply to yourself. I will refer back to it on a regular basis, but only to read bits and pieces.

Would I recommend it? I would recommend it. It is a good professional development book, just be prepared for a long read.
