5.0 out of 5 stars
a new series by DK, purely TP,
By
This review is from: Leadership (Essentials (DK Publishing)) (Turtleback)
Tom Peters is my mentor, even that i have never met him, yet he is my mentor, to see life and business in a different sprakling way. So, i am biased, and i owned all of TP books, and i visited his website very often.
I belive DK and TP is a good combination. This books is so colorful it felt like a traveling guide, but this is a guide for the new Leader in the new millenium... The size is small, in the similar way as of TP "Brand You trilogy series", but with the color of Re-Imagine. Some materials are from TP older books, and some are new. But all are wonderfully energizing and refreshing. A lot of materials was taken from Re-Imagine, so if you only want to own ONE TP book, get Re-Imagine. ;-) TP is a different type of writer, with followers and critics on both sides. he is not "common" or "neutral", he is an extremist, he is a player. To attend his one day public seminar in Singapore you have to pay about 1000 USD per person. So this book (all his books!!! and get Re-Imagine if you have not got one) is a real bargain. If you download his powerpoint files from his website www.tompeters.com, and did not understand some of the slides, you can read it in his books. This is a small books full of RANTS, strong talks, and opinionated LISTs, combine with pictures, colors, and graphics. I enjoyed this chrunchy delicious books very much and read it over the weekend.... I love Tom Peters!

A Tom Peters seminar wrapped in a quick read. I enjoyed the insight into business and leadership trends. I respect Mr. Peters tremendously. I give this book a 5 because it is an excellent quick read. So much wisdom from a management standpoint. A leadership must read.

This review is from: Leadership (Essentials (DK Publishing)) (Turtleback)
Read this book, if you have trouble sleeping. No, it will not put you to sleep it will shock your world back to reality. The future is now and ultra sensitive Tom tells it like it is, no holds barred and why should he? Great read, real stuff to use.
