5.0 out of 5 stars Inner CEO in every person and organization
Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2024

Reading this book reminds me of a former employer who has so much potential but is a typical Japanese bureaucratic company that would not adapt with the change of times.

Their digital presence is non-existent, they are not using automation with their process, and the long-term employees would tell you, "this is how we've been doing things for years and it's working."

No wonder they could not retain new managers as they're stuck in their old ways of thinking and not unleash their organization's inner CEO's.

I would recommend Jeremy Blain's book as it provides framework in transforming an organization and at the same time empower an individual to contribute more regardless of their level. I enjoy reading it especially the interviews which is very practical as it gives another perspective as to what the author is trying to emphasize.

A book that not only CEOs but also all executives and team leaders in sales departments must read!
It's a book packed with a framework that comes alive and tactics that are easy to apply in real world situations.
It's a book that I wish only I could read, rather than sharing with other sales executives or CEOs because it has many valuable and insighful information.
Highly recommended!
[Strongly recommended by Bruce, Master Trainer of "Sales Clinic," a specialized sales training company in Korea.]

Absolutely awesome read! The archaic times of a CEO being the only one in charge or the say all be all are over! Just because you’re the CEO does not mean that you should not hear the opinions of others who can positively contribute to your company. Learning to delegate, as well as collaborate with your employees is something super important. This book provides a bright insight to the future of companies, and how teamwork makes the dream work! Love the 90 day plan laying things out very simply overall great read !
