Recenzje

'Through a series of examples, graphics and principles, the authors draw from Formula 1® team working principles - as well as the overall structure of the series - to lay out a kind of ideal methodology for business and corporate managers. … it is difficult not to agree with the book's premise that just about any business or company would find the approach beneficial as it attempts to make itself into a winning 'team' as well.' Brad Spurgeon, The New York Times
