  I gotta say, it was quite well-done. Obviously, I found some things I disagreed with. But altogether, it makes sense, it uses good examples, it shows some sensibility regarding I/O psychology. And it's also quite funny and well-written. Also, the author seems to know the show quite well. And even the real life examples are those which everybody knows. Not the kind "only British/American people will understand". For those reason I gotta give 5/5 to the book itself. Regarding the Czech translation... well, sometimes the people who made translation would deserve a kick in the groin.

  Я бы не назвал это полноценной книгой, хотя параллели с реальным миром проведены точно (пусть местами и наивно). Особую интригу придаёт то, что книга писалась ещё до завершения сериала, поэтому выводы насчёт поведения героев саги не окончательные.

  Takhle to umím, takový jsem, a jenom když si připustíme, jací jsme, můžeme dostat to, co chceme.

  Entretenido, pero no me dijo nada de lo que no me haya percatado viendo la serie.

  I recently read an article that said people who read literary fiction instead of genre fiction are better at reading emotions, so it's interesting to see how genre fiction can be used to understand people's actions, especially in a business context. I think this is a really clever way to use storytelling to understand key concepts and learnings to apply at work rather than just delving into theory and it's also backed up with other stories from the "real world". The chapters are short and snappy, so I wouldn't call it a massively intellectual management tome, but that's not what it's trying to be - it's using analogies to demonstrate theories other people have developed. It also works in the reverse - analysing the actions of the characters to better understand why certain events in the series played out they way they did. Minimal references to swearing or nudity also help with the "Suitable for Work" issue.

  Pse, quizá sea la palabra que mejor lo define.
  
  
  Un libro para pasar un rato, sin más pretensiones.
  
  Hace un repaso de los principales personajes de canción de hielo y fuego y comenta sus puntos de interés para la gestión y el liderazgo.
  
  
  tan solo entretenido y para su temática normalmente suelo exigir algo más.
  
  
  
  Valoración personal: 2/5

  Nenechajte sa odradiť nadpisom - kniha nie je písaná iba pre ľudí z oblasti podnikania a marketingu.
  Práve naopak - je písaná veľmi čtivo, nájdete v nej veľa motivačných myšlienok či rád, ktoré môžete uplatniť či už v profesnom alebo súkromnom živote.
  4* dávam za preklad (chyby v texte ma iritovali), plus ocenila by som možno aj viac stránkovú knihu na túto tému - autor píše veľmi čtivo a pútavo, tak prečo sa aj viac nerozpísať.
