Sunday Review: Good To Great by Jim Collins
I have decided to do a dead simple book review every Sunday. Some of this is to just share what I’m reading. Rather than go with some complex rating system a book will either be a thumbs up or a thumbs down. Thumbs up means I highly recommend reading the book. A thumbs down means read something else unless you have free time on your hands. I will then do a one or two sentence at most comment on the book.

Take Away: Good historical view of some great companies over time. Wondering if some of the companies performance in last few years distracts from the book.

I’ve got this book sitting on my desk but haven’t found the time to read it. I need to make time for it. What was your biggest take away from the book?
