John,

Thank you for your comment.  We believe that both games are important.  Both have steep learning curves and both must develop at the pace of change.  Our primary emphasis on the inner game in the book is because it is so ignored in our efforts to develop leaders.  The inner game runs the outer game.  When we ignore it, we put our change efforts in serious jeopardy.

I am glad you are enjoying the book.  Let us know more as you complete it.
