Five Stars!
I started this book shortly after changing jobs and found that good portions of the book were extremely relevant and in some cases very convicting. The end-of-chapter study questions were a wonderful part of the experience as it helped me slow down and take time to thoughtfully consider the concepts covered in the chapter. The topical prayers at the end of each chapter were also phenomenal. The topics and content are great, with stories to help reinforce what's discussed, and in many cases, the information is applicable in situations outside of work. I would highly recommend this book, especially to those early in their careers.
