Thought written a couple of decades back, this book still has relevant lessons for a novice manager like me.
I could also summarise the chapter wise learnings and share with my organization's key managers. It helped me spread the knowledge the book has shared.

I liked chapters on the second career, the myth around being workaholic, the need to stay structured in the personal space as well from the book.

First couple of sections were good, but the latter half is very very dated and sexist. The whole section on why women are more expensive was just ridiculously stupid.
