“Edward Herrmann’s pacing and understated connection with the material in this memoir makes the audio seem compact and relaxed. The writing is also outstanding, lacking excessive pride or self-congratulation, so you don’t have to elbow past the author’s ego to absorb the many CEO-level insights offered here. An essential volume for anyone interested in technology, large organizations, or IBM’s miraculous rebirth under Gerstner’s leadership.”
