Simple Lessons
This book is a fairly easy read and doesn't have too much of that doctorate, I'm trying to impress you, language. I think this use of the word paradox is becoming a bit too common these days and these authors also seem to force the concepts to make paradoxes out of them. They also throw a person's reading rhythm "out of whack" by throwing in the chapter on Information Technology which clearly doesn't belong in this book. With that said, I will say that there are some good bits of advice and methods which can be used within a business to help change things around. Overall, I think it is worth a look, but you might want to wait for the paperback version. Similar Products
