When I was first presented with the idea behind today’s featured book, I’ll admit I was skeptical. It seemed hard to believe that an actual formula could be applied to – and help solve – truly complex business problems. My guest today, David Benjamin, along with his co-author David Komlos, have turned me into a believer. Their new book is called Cracking Complexity: The Breakthrough Formula for Solving Just About Anything Fast. In it, they share their cutting-edge, highly-engaging, step-by-step formula for cracking incredibly difficult and important challenges in just days, while helping mobilize those on y0ur team who must execute. I think they’ve managed to deliver the defining handbook for current and future leaders. Click the play button below to join our conversation now, or keep scrolling for a summary.
