One realizes this is a book written some decades ago just because there are some inconsistencies with the business equipment the author describes. Its content is mostly as valid now as when it was written.
There are some memorable sentences, but my impression is that I miss the point of many observations. It may be because of the business jargon used in the text, o perhaps because I'm not experienced at all in management and leadership.
Anyway, it is a recommended read for someone interested in leadership and with some background on the topic.
