Treats coo as the secondary job even in cases where coo runs a large part of organisation. Had very few tips to really take away home for chosing and aligning coo's function in an Organisation.

Pretty much the only book I could find on what the role of a Chief Operating Officer (COO) is, but even then, it didn't really answer the question. The key takeaways from this book are pretty much summarised in the first two chapters of the book. I found the rest of it to be mildly interesting (it's filled with interviews and anecdotes from past COOs / CEOs) but ultimately, not much that was sufficiently concrete to take-away and apply.
