Just finished reading “The Manager’s Path” by Camille Fournier. I saw myself (and my mistakes) in so many of the situations she describes and I think it leaves me more accepting of those mistakes instead of blaming myself and looking more towards doing better and learning from them.
I see why so many people praise this book so much. It really is that good.
