review 1: I read this book in conjunction with an online course taught by the authors. On the whole, I definitely appreciated some of their ideas and approaches to scaling a business successfully. However, the style of the book/research, excessively example-driven, got to be a bit repetitive. It also sometimes felt that they were extracting lessons from a solitary example, which didn't inspire confidence in the universality of the insight. Overall: worth reading if you're trying to grow a business.
review 2: Change is messy and hard won. I've seen this in my professional experience and in my own efforts to build better habits. Scaling Up Excellence lays out some of the essential tensions and challenges, with research-backed recommendations and stories of how others have ... morefailed and succeeded. A lot rings true here and this book is essential reading to anyone trying to spread excellence in their organization. less
