An easy listen....
Very interesting and easy to listen to. Nice short chapters long enough for the train commute . Only issue was the chapter setup for the book didn't correlate to the audio which made it hard to track at times. I need to learn how to use bookmarks!

A must listen for leaders
I gained a lot of valuable lessons from this book. Either though I am not a team leader etc - I liked the idea of leading the chain of command.
