The book does not have a co-author, which means Michael Dell is a profound storyteller. Unlike other CEOs of successful companies, you don't hear much about Dell. FAANG CEOs typically hug all the limelight. However, Michael Dell is remarkable. Precise communicator, to the point delivery of facts, a good bit of details into his likings that made him the successful manager he is, although he does not have a formal college education. He is so precise most chapters in his book are almost twenty pages long. A biography starts from early childhood to successful adulthood in a chronology; this story is more like two parallel stories. One talks about taking Dell company private vis-a-vis the author's childhood and how he set up the company. Towards the end of the first part, both stories merge into the present how he brought Dell Technologies into a publicly-traded organization again, thus providing enhanced stockholder value. He is not the strongest technologist. Yet, he has a deep understanding of the business and conducts himself as a strong manager and visionary. The last chapter was not very interesting; it felt one is leading the regular business press.
Overall the book is a great read and almost unputdownable.
