Finance ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
No Bullsh*t Leadership
Chris Hirst · 2019
🎙 Narrated by Peter McGovern
74/100
👍 Worth It
Hirst writes like a CEO who's actually tired of corporate fluff, and it shows in short, usable takeaways backed by a genuine UK Business Book of the Year win. It's heavier on personal war stories than research, so treat it as seasoned practitioner wisdom rather than a study. Narration is unverified in detail but the credited narrator should carry the blunt tone fine.
