BATB score: 4/10 🙄👎🥱
10/10 for the book title #clickbait
4/10 for the numerous self-anecdotes #selfpraise and under-developed concepts. At most common sense techniques in business. This book deserves to die.
Best to: read the elaborated negotiating principles in "How to Talk to Anyone" - Leil Lowndes; and the office politics principles in "Power" - Jeffrey Pfeffer
Best as: toilet reads, each topic takes like 3 minutes to read and 3 seconds to digest the minimal gist that exist
Best for: book collectors - another book to your shelves
Side Note: yes, I agree. A lot of our day-to-day business skills (sales, negotiating, self-PR) are best learnt through experiences rather than any business schools/books
