Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
Opportunity Knocking
Lori Ann LaRocco · 2014
72/100
👍 Worth It
LaRocco's access to genuine C-suite voices gives this book something most business titles can't fake — real executives speaking candidly about how they saw and seized opportunity. The seven-step pyramid keeps things practical rather than purely inspirational. It runs lighter on theory than heavier strategy books, but that's a fair trade for the rare insider perspective.
