“Strips big ideas down to their essence, making the complicated understandable and turning the theoretical into real-world practical. Recommended.” (Broc Edwards, SVP, director of learning & leadership)
However I find Max's narration really irritating. He seems to be concentrating so much on pronunciation that the performance loses all emotion. It could and should be so much better for such a great book!
Great book but dull performance

Would you try another book written by Max Mckeown or narrated by Max Mckeown?
Not really as I've listened to 2 now and they are both long winded and repetitive. Could easily be more to the point and easier to follow. Some decent contentI guess though.
