Customer Reviews
Brilliant! Exec normies (like me) should listen.
Great insights from Abadesi & Michael across a broader range of subjects than I hoped. Helps me understand my late teenage kids moving into the work place, and highlights the very real challenges of diverse and underserved communities.
Mansplain alert… Michael… it is UNscrupulous - having or showing no regard for what is right or honorable, i.e. devoid of scruples.
Scrupulous is the opposite.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
So many gems
