Review title: Almost Great...
Product review: I really enjoy Jim's work and generally hold his thoughts and theories in high regard. This book will provide any reader with valuable advice that can be used to drive their business forward. That being said, I offer the following caution...leadership is contextual. In my bookLeadership Matters...The CEO Survival Manual: WHAT IT TAKES TO REACH THE C-SUITE AND STAY THEREI spend a decent amount of time discussing why one size fits all management recommendations can constitute extremely dangerous thinking. Categorizing certain "types" of leaders as effective and other "types" of leaders as ineffective is not only dangerous, but it is flat out wrong. Over the course of my career I have witnessed virtually every "type" of leader both succeed and fail. It is not the style of your leadership that matters, but rather the key issue is can you contextually, environmentally or situationally adapt your leadership skills to needs and demands of the time.
