Comments: This is the first book I have read with four authors. Even if the four authors are individually great writers, once they created this book by committee and consensus it dropped down to being average at best. Good ideas are mentioned in the book, but never in enough detail to really do anything. The overall feel is a bit like four people on coffee breaks chatting and saying how great each others ideas are. Odd. For now I will skip looking for other books by this team. This mini review might be harsh, but I think there are better books out their to read. I bet their live corporate workshop presentation of this material is pretty good though.
