Although there is ample useful practical advice, overall this book is modeled for a 20th century company, and an ill advice for the uncertain, complex and ambiguous reality of the 21th century.
The metaphor of a “well oiled machine” assumes a one size fits all concept. This may be good for a “franchising” domain. But unfit for a research and development nor for a highly fluctuate environment.
The EOS, entrepreneur operating system, resembles an agile even Scrum framework from the mechanistic view, and lacking all the humane and adaptive concepts.
This is one book I would recommend 21st century entrepreneur *not* to read. Or at least to read as a warning from ill advice.
