Review: Robert Iger encapsulates 10 great leadership lessons that are applicable not just for the CXOs but for anyone who wants to add drive, focus and structure to their professional lives. The book is more like a narration of the lessons he learnt as he grew older. We would recommend this to almost any executive or business owner.
