I was not sure what to expect with this book... being somewhat skeptical by nature (working on it!), the concern that this book would somehow fall short of my hopes (as an Airman and proponent of innovation) was at top of mind.
Having not really interacted with Beam (the author), but been around the periphery of AFWERX (the Air Force's innovation-focused team), it was clearly a must-read... but then what?
Thankfully, it did not disappoint, and actually serves as a wonderful resource for others across government who have seen or heard of AFWERX and are interested in what was underneath the hood when it all got moving.
Without spoiling anything, I'll just finish by saying that it is very balanced / circumspect, does not feel overly ego-driven (another concern I had), and is full of enough humor and fantastic Gaping Void illustrations to warrant purchase on those merits alone.
I'll undoubtedly reflect more upon re-reading, but share these thoughts now so that those who are on the edge (or maybe not tracking it yet) can pick it up and add the lessons and ideas to their kit.
