The absence of any 'new spin' on time-tested principles may disappoint readers who were hoping for a unique approach or unconventional strategies. If you're already familiar with the fundamentals of sales leadership, you may find the content repetitive and unremarkable.Another downside is the book's reliance on bulleted lists.
