Solid book, I did already understand a lot of the concepts but there were several times while reading the various sections that I thought to myself "Yeah, I see this every day". Likewise, the book does a good job of distilling the concepts into digestable chunks so it can be used for easy reference.

So far so good, basically the first chapter is "Why you shouldn't get a traditional MBA" which boils down to "It's expensive and there's no evidence it makes you any better at conducting business."

Cthos started reading Project to Product by Mik Kersten
So far it's pretty good, aside from it being a sales pitch for the author's company's Flow Framework system - but the more I read about their methodology the more I like it? So I guess it's working.
Cthos started reading Your Next Five Moves by Patrick Bet-David

Content warning Cosmere Spoilers
I absolutely loved the Secret project book #1, it was filled with really neat explorations of the Aethers - you get small exposure to a lot of different Cosmere magic systems.
Absolutely worth reading.
Cthos finished reading Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson
It was a wonderful book. I could have likely binged it in a single day, but decided to take it a bit slower than that.
