Story
Self-made billionaire Sam Zell consistently sees what others don't. From finding a market for overpriced Playboy magazines among his junior high classmates, to buying real estate on the cheap after a market crash, to investing in often unglamorous industries with long-term value, Zell acts boldly on supply and demand trends to grab the first-mover advantage. And he can find opportunity virtually anywhere - from an arcane piece of legislation to a desert meeting in Abu Dhabi.

Too many workplaces are driven by cynicism, paranoia, and self-interest. But the best ones foster trust and cooperation because their leaders build what Sinek calls a "Circle of Safety" that separates the security inside the team from the challenges outside.

Great book
David seems to create an atmosphere that allows the candidate to be at ease.
As a result David truly gets to heart of their individual leadership and what drives them.
Truly interesting and eye opening.
Loved to see this develop into a series of books.
Keep up great work.

Subjects were interesting, interviewer could improve
First, highly recommend this book by audible to hear the interviews live. It was very interesting to hear from this wide variety of leaders in their respective fields. The one thing that distracted from this was the author’s interviewing style. He was constantly interrupting his subjects, dismissive of their answers or seemed like he was just waiting for them to finish so he could ask his next question without caring what they were saying. Finally, he would ask questions and then offer answers versus waiting to hear what they actually has to say. This was a constant frustration throughout this book, but that aside it was a fascinating listen, and would recommend.

No depth
Although it's interesting to hear about a few leaders, especially ones that I was not too familiar with, a lot of these interviews are quite shallow. Rubenstein doesn't press interesting points and a lot of his follow up questions are dull and lifeless. Much of the interviews are taken up with chronological details that can easily be looked up on Wikipedia. The most glaring issue, though, is that only a small portion of each conversation even concerns itself with leadership. A misleading book, haphazardly put together to take advantage of raw interview material, which they assembled together into this "ok" package.
