Good Power: Leading Positive Change in Our Lives, Work, and World

The messages in this book are not just for women, everyone could find their path to GOOD POWER and “be the storm” that makes a difference!

though I worked and retired from IBM, starting when Ginni R was CEO, I did not know her history. Though I did appreciate her leadership and start of the transformation to define a modern IBM.

This book is mostly a biography, which is understandable but the title led me to expect more.

This is not a dry textbook on leadership or management style. It is a personal and vivid journey through the ups and downs of Ginni’s personal and professional life and how it informs her evolving values. These lessons now form how she continues in her post-IBM life and work. It is very thought provoking and well worth the read. It’s good to know there are still principled people In positions of power.

The book was really hard to follow. Chapters extremely long. Very good principles about Skills First and growth but wasn’t a very engaging read.

I loved this book. I came away inspired by Ginni Rometty's thoughtfulness, and her long thread of committed purpose and principles amid complex advances in technology and markets during her 40 years at IBM.I liked the peak inside IBM and getting a better understanding of its history and values and the enormous consequences of the decisions they make, like one Rometty faced about divesting R&D and/or manufacturing areas from the company portfolio. While IBM is gigantic, an application from the book for my own small business is that defining and living out operating principles is as thrilling and courageous as it gets.Thank you Ginni Rometty for sharing your personal story with the world and inspiring me, even with your handwritten note at the end of the book. It's not the what of what you've accomplished, it's the how.

A well written autobiography and remarkable life story. Rometty shares her values, methods, work ethic, how she transformed IBM into a very different company, and new ideas for addressing tech resource shortage while creating a “rising tide for ALL”. (Something Jack Kemp dreamed of so long ago.)As a former IBMer, it is great to see how the company has transitioned to what it is today, largely as a result of Rometty’s leadership and values.

Many of us that have worked with Ginni know her to be a charismatic, driven leader that asked herself and the team to only give the best for the clients and the larger world that they serve. This book gives an authentic, behind the scenes, first person view of Ginni's humble beginnings and her life experiences that shaped her thinking, as she grew from a line manager to a CEO that has led IBM through multiple transformations.My preordered book came in the mail yesterday and I am almost done reading - it's a fast read!

Everything I say won’t translate the true feel that I felt while reading this fantastic book. Thank you, Ginni. Cheers.

I’m a long time fan of Gin but this book took me to another level of respect and admiration. Thanks for practical advices on how to drive a “ Good Power”

Not many corporate management and leadership stories of IBM....Why Arvind KRISHNA Was selected.Lou Gerstner’s book ELEPHANTS CAN DANCE.... was a real TURNAROUND STRATEGY....

Brilliant story of personal triumph. Very thoughtfully written.
