Reception

A review in BusinessWeek said that "the book often comes off as a rant", and that "Anyone expecting a volume strictly focused on corporate leadership, with tips on managing a complex corporation, will be disappointed." [1]

Library Journal said, "His mix of straightforward lists...and conversational and conversational asides makes for fast reading, although many readers may be surprised by his level of vitriol toward George W. Bush". [2]
