A book about one of the most over-rated CEOs of our time, and a testament to the cult of the CEO!

I don't believe that the author goes into the Fiorinas background enough, as we could detect later, she failed in everything except playing power-politics (and she failed in that as well, when she failed in her bid to become a politician). Many Carly-fans complains that the book is anti-Carly, but having lived through the debacle and knowing a lot of people in the companies, I can anly say that the author is giving her a too kind treatment.

In short, you won't miss anything if you don't read this book.
