The book could have been shorter, and some techniques are outdated (especially the touching people part). I find the advice in the book clear and simple. I can imagine that it makes for effective management. And I plan to integrate it in my own life.
Kind of an obnoxious little book, in some ways. But that's not to say that the basic ideas of management contained therein are valueless. They are quite useful, actually. I just wish that they did not have to be framed in a somewhat condescendingly child-like parable. Why not just summarize these "one minute management" techniques without making a little mock story out of it? I suppose it's a clever way to transmit the information, but I ultimately resented it.
