The section on performance management is circular and vague: a good one is motivating and a bad one is demotivating. OK. Glad we got that out of the way.

The whole intro reads like a puffy resume and lots of gilding. Even a section of gushing testimonials.

And he puts his name on the title so you don't gotta read the author byline. Total cheese.

The section on performance management is at least five pages long, and it covers compensation, leveling, job titles, PIPs, and firing. Perhaps you mistook the introduction to the section for the entirety of the section?
