The Clarity Principle, although a good book and resource, is really not much different from your

typical leadership book. There are those books that are a must have for your leadership library; however, this is one of those. This was a book that I could take or leave. This is not to say that this is not a valuable book, it’s just that when you've read so many leadership books, you expect others to be exceptional. Enough about that.

The one thing that stood out for me in this book is that the author shares that you shouldn’t treat everyone, everything or every situation equally. People are on different levels, and not every situation is going to have the same outcome.

The book uses several analogies and is an easy read. However, I found myself losing interest and having to put the book down and revisit several times before finishing.
