From AudioFile
Jim Bond's low-key performance works well with this fascinating business lesson. His pleasant voice and deliberate pace energize the lengthy, weighty text. The material itself is based on a methodical study of large corporate failures from which the authors have abstracted seven types of strategic errors. These are judgment problems that appear at the CEO and board-of-director levels of large public companies, but the human dimension in the authors' writing will make their abstractions useful to leaders in all types of businesses. In spite of its academic tone, the text holds one's attention because of its compelling examples, methodical approach, and Bond's top-shelf interpretation. T.W. © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
