74/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Kerry Johnson brings actual doctoral-level credentials to a genre that often lacks them, and Kirkus calling this potentially life-altering is a real endorsement worth taking seriously. The fixed-vs-growth framework is well-worn territory at this point β€” Dweck's fingerprints are everywhere β€” but Johnson's business-application lens and structured techniques give it enough of its own lane to justify reading. Those looking for a deeper values framework will want to supplement it.
