The Knack

The Knack: How Street-smart Entrepreneurs Learn To Handle Whatever Comes Up,  Bo Burlingham, Norm Brodsky

Now this is a fantastic book.  From start to finish useful tips from the man who has done it.  Occasionally I was thinking how is this relevant to me, I’m not planning on being the boss of a big company with loads of employees, I don’t run a document storage busines… but all those lessons are still relevant, some of them just to life, not just for business people and entrepreneurs but for people.

The writing is great and it’s easy to read, makes sense and easy to digest, I liked the end of chapter notes (similar to the copy of  How to Win friends and influence people which I have, I guess they are all like that but I don’t know) .

This is my favourite business book (of course that may change in the future…) perhaps the fact its written by a writer and not an academic makes it work, that and the fact he’s done it (wrong) and learnt from it all.
