It is hard not to wonder if this ‘corporate fable' is somewhat of an Autobiography, one both about fixing a mess at the office while also being one about trying to save a marriage.  While this reads like a story more than a textbook/guide, it does have a clear point it is trying to make.  However, it does get very convoluted and a bit hard to follow when the infamous Jonah introduces and helps implement new process and a whole new measuring system for success - some analogies or adjacent examples wouldve helped tremendously.  This book is a long way of saying dont believe everything you are handed down and consistently try to innovate or look at things through alternate lenses than what everyone might be used to.
