I, Tycoon After twenty-eight years of silence, Miroslav Mišković spoke up, Serbia’s biggest businessman from the late 20th and early 21st century. Why was he silent? Why did he speak up now? No, I didn’t write this, it says on the back of the book, “I, Tycoon”… though, now that I’ve said this out…
Who Was Nikola Tesla When someone says they have great respect for one of the greatest engineers, futurists and innovators (perhaps ever), Nikola Tesla, that among their books they have his, let’s say, “autobiography” (“My Inventions”), a seriously written biography (“Tesla: Inventor of the Modern Age”), and even a book by a domestic author about…
Trillion Dollar Coach X (by the way, director of a smaller company): So, how do you see your “working with people/employees,” HR and company functioning? Me: (talking about my vision of situations and approaches to problem-solving broadly and passionately) X: (after a brief silence) You better go to “Silicon Valley” and make your way there….
The Ride of a Lifetime People apparently had high expectations for Robert “Bob” Iger and his business/CEO memoir “The Ride of a Lifetime.” I did too. I had some inexplicably good feeling about this book. And that’s why I made maximum effort to avoid reading any (both domestic and foreign) reviews of the book until…
Tribe of Mentors Uh, Tim Ferriss… to be honest, I’m not entirely sure what to think of him. I really don’t know. He’s one of those authors where I get the feeling that his blog and podcast are more interesting—and have more credibility—than his books. I’ve owned his bestseller The 4-Hour Workweek for ages, as…

Task objective: Write a pile of fabrications and trash some Serbian businessman, preferably a successful one. Conditions: Important that it sounds shocking, that it mentions…
Perfect Surprise As you may have noticed from the book reviews, I don’t easily pick up domestic writers of the “newer generation” (in terms of publication period, not their ages :D) and few of them have left any “wow” impression on me so far. There are exceptions, of course, like the first book reviewed on…
The Wolf of Wall Street Ugh, where to start… you might not believe me, but I still haven’t watched the film “The Wolf of Wall Street”! The reason is this book. I wanted to read it first. I’ve had it for years, but I kept putting off reading it, even though everyone praises the book…
To determine who is today’s “true great American” is a challenging question to answer definitively. Naturally, many might start (probably Americans first) by listing music and film stars (maybe Tom Hanks?), presidents, reality TV stars, businessmen… Some might take a more grounded approach, perhaps naming a scientist, explorer, or spiritual leader… and others might…
