Mixed Emotions

This book has a lot of great content. However, at times it is also redundant.

Experience counts

The author has obviously been there and has learned the hard way what works and what doesn't. The book is short and perhaps a bit glib, but there are enough nuggets of genuine insight to make it well worth the time.

A Timeless Management Book

This is what I would call a timeless masterpiece. Dan Thomas creates a sense of what it takes to create a winning business model so you can poise yourself for growth. This is a reeningeering type of book, however, it does not seem to tell you to pair down your business to bare bones.

I had the pleasure of hearing Dan Thomas speak when I was with a division of Lucent Technologies. What he said was applied from the GM on down and that particular division although now a different name and company is still in business doing what it does as a main business with a name that is recognized in its particular industry.

Business Sense makes sense. It is a must read for those who liked books like "Who Moved My Cheese" and "Never Eat Alone."

I think this is an outstanding selection.

After I have been through many consulting and strategy courses, Dan reveals a simple approach to help improve your business. I feel the book is rather dense, so don't expect to get through it in a night. Dan says a manager have 5 freedoms that a manager/ ceo can control: 1)choosing the right business, 2) right strategy 3)right systems, 4)right structure 5)right people. After knowing some successful consultants, this book goes further than most have taught me. Dan reveals his consulting strategies that apparently have put his services in high demand. Powerful knowledge.
