Great book, full of human values and sustainable vision

I enjoyed reading this book, simple and concise, very encouraging, I recommend to take few hours and read it. It brings a different vision about management style, more approachable and suited for the future generation, likewise it highlights the value of a business as sustainable resource rather than a merely profitable organization.
