I throughly enjoyed this book. As a management consultant with a similar set of work principles, it’s rare to come a across a book that adds real value, examines change through a new lens, and offers genuine new ideas - and yet with this book, Gary takes the reader on a journey based on real experiences and gets us thinking about how we should think of our work as a gardener, rather than a mechanic. Both me and my current client will be benefiting from this on Monday morning.
