A review by thehlb
Turnaround: Crisis, Leadership, and the Olympic Games by Mitt Romney, Timothy Robinson

3.0

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. Even though on the surface it can seem dry, with lots of numbers and statistics and names thrown around, I found myself anxious to come back to it every time I put it down. I found myself getting excited whenever his team was able to cut something unnecessary out of the budget!
It was very enlightening as far as the financials of the games, especially in terms of Olympic sponsorships.
Romney mentions at the outset, the the first drafts of the book came from dictations, and it reads like it. The editing/writing is not overly polished and there is a fair amount of redundancy.
A worthwhile read if you are interested in the behind the scenes of the Olympics.
