common sense from an uncommon source
The Tao is an embodiment of practical age old experiance and sage common sense. I personally used the lessons contained in this book to build a ten million dollar company. A common misconception is business is about products, when business is more about people, and their needs, desires, and fears. If money is your only goal, perhaps this book is not for you. However, if you feel the challenge of managment is an opportunity to broaden your life experiance the Tao of Managment can help you realize your goals with insights very relevant today. The Tao is about working with the natural potential we all have, but sometimes forget during the normal everyday grind. You will be surprised how definitive it is in handling the most common problems you will face on a day to day basis.

not focused, not directive, not interesting
"Tao means god, tao cannot be defined." well, which one is it! The book lacked direction and focus, although certain anecdotes taught minor lessons. There are better books out there.
