REVIEWS:

For the Baby Boomer/GenX leader, this read is for you. For the struggling elder millennial who is caught between two worlds of Old School & New School, this is for you. For the younger Millenials/Gen Z who are breaking into the business, need help understanding the Old School, & how your New School mentality can lead into the future, this book is for you. In all aspects of life, we are in a World at War with each other. The current crossroads between the Hierarchy & the Network can lead to a hard path, and navigating it can be even more difficult. Joshua Medcalf does it again with Seth Mattison in this fable with similar themes of previous books of Chop Wood, Carry Water & Pound The Stone, while bringing new viewpoints and critics thoughts to leadership. A MUST read!
