Bad Blood

Never read an English book that fast. Took me less than 4 days to finish. Fascinated, unbelievable, unreal, surreal, I am out of vocabulary to describe. It told us the biggest scandal in Silicon Valley and how far a well covered and well presented lie can go. Salute to the WSJ reporter for the relentless investigation that took years to complete.

Two major takeaways in the areas of business:

1. A vision that touches people emotionally is by far the most powerful weapon in sale s, regardless what you sell. It’s never the money or the equipment - it’s the vision.

2. Presentation skill matters. Eloquent and convincing presentation, when armed with a noble vision, can take you really, really far. It’s one hell of a book. A Hollywood movie is in the making. Can’t wait to watch it next year.
