This book was helpful since I am new at the "management" role. I don't consider myself as a manager, but rather a collaborator guiding my team along with me to do better and produce quality work all while enjoying our work; making what we do meaningful. I constantly learn from my colleagues (those above and below my pay grade). This book has made me aware of "boss-holes". I steer clear of boss-holes and reel myself in when I am in the verge of being one. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! The book was ok. It has some good ideas, but honestly, it is a lot of common sense. The book could easily convey its good ideas in a shorter format. I got tired of reading it. The edition I read had an epilogue. The author felt the need to add more but honestly, I was too tired of the subject and the writing to finish the epilogue. I recognize the author's success though. The book and the subject matter have struck a chord. It is a worthy subject to cover. Good luck.
Should be required reading for any newbie "boss" and for many "experienced" ones.
