review 1: Great collection of articles, especially if you're interested in personal development/improvement. I would even put it in the category of "must read" for those new to management or leadership positions. Quite a few of the essays are dated but the principals are still solid. I did like the "Idea in Brief" sections as well that give you the basics of the chapter - which allowed me to skip one that I didn't think would be of interest or relevance to me.
review 2: A lot of the essays in this book might be ones that any regular reader of HBR might have read before such as, "How Will You Measure Your Life?" or "Managing Oneself" but I would encourage anyone to read this book. There's a lot of tips and tricks that even if one has read an essay before, might have gon... moree missed or might need to be picked up again. While it may seem that this book is something that seems to be directed at executives, this is a book that should be read by high school students, college students, junior staff, and senior staff. In fact, it probably should be re-read at regular intervals because so much of the book is focused on developing the habits of success and not indulging in small, seemingly innocuous choices that ultimately undermine what we would like out of life. 5 stars. If you haven't read it, do so. If you haven't read it recently, I highly recommend a re-read. less
