Customer Reviews

Good set of article

Like any HBR review book, this just provides articles on decision making, some are thought provoking and very useful, the one I did not like was the article "Competing on Analytics" but the other 7 articles were good, with 5 of them being great. Each article provides a great read for a 1 hour plan flight. It is funny how poorly companies execute decision making, this book should help you rethink how you make decision making in your own company.
