    A must read book
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 20, 2017*

I want to express my gratitude and thank the author Subir Chowdhury for the book-The Difference: When Good Enough isn't Enough. It was an excellent read and refreshing at the same time. It was very informative and provided great examples that are core values in any setting that can be in family, work or social. But I found the book personable at the same time. I related in all levels that it helped me understand that I was not alone in being straightforwardness, accountable, thoughtful (working progress still) and resolve that makes up what is STAR.I see that we live in a world that doesn't appreciate these values. A good portion are looking for a quick fix to problems, that in due time will reappear again at another level as time goes by. I always believed to fix a problem you need to take the time to find the root and work from their to managed it. By being straightforward, thoughtful, accountable and resolved it can be beneficial for all parties. The book is instrumental for any person to read and learn how to put this in practice to resolve any issue at hand.Lastly, the author's grandfather was a wise man who taught him many valuable lessons to use and show others as well as his parents. Those values are more valuable than anything else. I'm grateful that he shared those memories in the book. It made me think about my father in how he showed me many lessons that I didn't understand, but now understand fully what he meant. He wanted all his children to be educated and succeed in life. We did, but I took it the furthest to obtained my MBA. I appreciate what I have in my life and thank those who helped me get to my goals. It's true the pen is more than the coin when you look at now as adults.So thank I Subir for making me re-evaluate my life with this book.Michael Medina

    The Difference Maker!
  

*by C***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 23, 2017*

I was attracted to this book by its title, as I felt that our company had fallen into a culture where we settled for "good enough." After reading this book, I immediately ordered another 80 copies to share with members of my team as I believe everyone, from top down, needs to start practising the STAR philosophy. I'm a big fan of Jim Collins "Good to Great" but I feel Mr Chowdhury's "The Difference" provides a better guideline on building a great company. Spoiler alert: I took Mr Chowdhury's grandfather's advice and wrote to Mr. Chowdhury after reading his book; unlike 40 years ago when it took months for a reply, Mr. Chowdhury responded immediately! I am grateful to have read this book and look forwards to spreading its teaching.

*by P***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 16, 2017*

Lucidly written personal stories and journey. This book resonates with people who care about what they do and how they do it. Indifference is a malaise - and based on what was shared in the book and no doubt experienced by others - it is treatable using the STAR approach. Hope this book is read and internalized by people such as "Nick" before it is too late or more damage is done.Quality is not just a metric but a mindset/philosophy. Most people involved in improving quality (of life, product, process) can attest that small changes do have a big impact and STAR is a well articulated path towards Quality.
