This book will make you feel smart, because you already know everything the author is going to say. The author, John Maxwell, has been very successful in his life, but this book is not one of his successes. It might be better titled \"How Successful People Think, The 5th Grader\'s Edition.

largely useless

Couple of good insights but otherwise too vague to be of much use
