Awakening the Entrepreneur Within
Michael E. Gerber · 2008
🎙 Narrated by Michael E. Gerber (self-narrated)
57/100
👎 Skip It
Gerber's Dreamer/Thinker/Storyteller/Leader framework is a fine extension of his E-Myth ideas, but it leans conceptual and abstract rather than tactical, and it just doesn't get discussed the way his flagship title does. His own narration keeps it authentic, at least, even if it's not a trained performer's polish. Skip it in favor of The E-Myth Revisited unless you're already working through his whole catalog.
