Highly recommended

The hard thing about good books that they are hard to follow but this book is an easy read on hard things.

I liked the writing style and you feel automatically connected. This book prepares you for real business scenarios and gives you the opportunity to think like a CEO. Also, you connect emotionally as the writer has very well explained the pain and struggle of a CEO.

The life of a CEO is all about struggle and struggle has no mercy.

Overall this is a good book and I would recommend to a...
