The Fakespot stats on this book and the critical comments in the Amazon listing don't put this book in the same light as you have. Additionally, the conditions surrounding the exit of Camille Fournier and three other C-level individuals from the company which she was a CTO don't inspire confidence that this is good material with regards to the area it is supposed to cover.

"It is a significant exodus in a short time, and many former employees describe a corporate culture at the fashion company that is unwelcoming, stressful, and occasionally hostile."

Having personally read this book, I can add another anecdotal data point to the "it's great" category. It is an insightful book without being preachy and has something useful for people at all levels. Obviously it's mostly based on one person's experience, but there's so much trash in this category of tech books that this read like a breath of fresh air.

It's good for what it is.

It's not a manual for how to be the world's best boss or build the best culture.

It's an approachable, informative view of what to expect at each rung of the management career ladder. I'd argue it's good because it doesn't take an opinionated stance on the particulars of how to accomplish the outlined roles.

The book is certainly better thsn her resume. It is very thoughtfully written, on an extremely important subject that otherwise only has folk wisdom and anecdata to look towards.
