“It is inspirational to learn that Musashi, a famous Japanese Ninja who had never lost a fight had a deeply strategic Mind. Dr Foo Check Teck cleverly interprets the messages to align them with modern attributes in sound management. The book is both interesting and informative to management students and professionals.”

This is timely novella, written to help us audit and re-balance our managerial lives. It continues the author's deep research in Sun Tzu and the inner meaning for self and community. You are encouraged to seek the wisdom within.”
