Dan’s Biz Bookshelf: Just the Good Stuff: No-BS Secrets to Success
11/13/2025 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: Dan's Biz BookshelfOne of the reasons I like Jim VandeHei’s Just the Good Stuff: No-BS Secrets to Success (No Matter What Life Throws at You) is that it’s written in short, to-the-point chapters with, as the title notes, “no BS,” which is how all business books should be written. There is no fluff or wasted words, just a hard-hitting, practical guide for those who want to do more than drift through their career. This book cuts through the noise to what works.

Given the many recent and ongoing public consultations, with often conflicting input from a broad range of stakeholders, final negotiations remain rather polarized among policymakers.
