Bottom line: ask for helpIf you are someone who thinks you are better off doing everything yourself, this book may cause you to re-think that belief. This book encourages you to stop focusing on How you're going to do something and instead tap into your network and see Who can help you.
Who Not How ReviewIndispensable to anyone looking to lead people, make impactful changes and create results.This will book will make you a better colleague, person and foremost a better leader.The main thread of the book might be a become a bit repetitive in some parts but certainly drives the point. Ease read nevertheless.In my shelf it's a must.
The book took far too long to explain what it was going to be about. By the time it started, it was a very short read. There was however enough interesting snippets to warrant a read through. It all got a big preachy and very American in style at points with the whole strategic coach chat though. I would recommend reading Hardy’s ‘Personality Isn’t permanent’ as this is a far better read and written solely by him.
General: I enjoyed a few things, but also was annoyed oftentimes and plainly shocked to read that kind of bad writing and bad argumentation. Also far too verbose and not to the point (and it is a thin book).The good:Reading the book made me have some interesting associations that, however, are not mentioned in the book. Part 2: Freedom of Money was quite good, actually, and also Part 3: Freedom of RelationshipsThe bad: The writing and the explanation is far too verbose and repetitive (and it is
An important book to read, and whose concepts MUSTbe put into practiceAs an admirer of the work that Dan Sullivan and Benjamin Hardy have done individually, I was sure that a collaboration, two “whos” getting together, would be a good hit. And a good it it is!The issue with these kind of books is what happens immediately after one has finished reading them.The issue is to put things into practice, and change the way we do things.This requires thinking, and thinking is hard, and in most cases we
I buy into the idea, I really do. Ever since I read "Good to Great" years ago, I’ve been sold on the idea of getting the right people onboard. But finding the right Who isn’t easy. I picked up this book hoping to get more insights. But I was really disappointed. To be fair, if you're still doing everything yourself, feeling overwhelmed but not willing to let go or delegate, then then this book may be really right for you. But if you're already sold on the idea and are looking for practical tips,...
In length, barely a book - more like a pop business op-ed written two or three ways and loop-de-looped onto itself, with minor perspective shifts and a handful of examples to illustrate each shift. Read the intro and you can infer the rest.That's pretty unfortunate, because the message of Who Not How is really important for getting goals-oriented people to shift their mindset from "if it's going to happen, I must learn how to do it" to "who is already equipped and eager to help me do this?" It's...
I would like more info on how to implement/achieve “who not how” and less info why this is so important. The entire book was describing the benefits of this concept. But it would be enough to talk about it in the introduction and then help with more tactics/strategies on how to do it, as a startup, as an established company.
