Amazing Read so far, 100 pages down full book to go!
When the first chapter started with Ben telling some random instances of him facing tough situations and then taking tough decisions to deal with them the right way.. I had little expectation from this book. One quote I loved during these stories is by Bill's father to Bill, "Roses are cheap but you know what's expensive: Divorce" and I was totally wowed!
1st Chap to 3rd Chap go fast motion into his overall journey of starting up, facing 2000 crash, going public in tough times of 2001, Selling the ultimate cloud business and then re-establishing itself as a software company to later buying a company just to keep the major customer and Finally selling to HP!
Pretty much insanely deadly roller coaster ride where every moment is about to bring death..
Now reading the part where how to hire right and how as company grows, it out grows people currently present and how you need the right hiring to match current company status..
This book is a must read!
Ben has written the book so well that it takes the stress and unwanted emotions out of the whole and what remains available for take out are the hard hitting lessons explained in leyman's terms which everyone can understand but are the most tough and testing in action.
