Great content, narrator makes me want to claw my eyes out

This book is a dive into the Association of International Product Marketing & Management (AIPMM) Optimal Product Process, as taught but the 280 Group. The content is fantastic. They provide a detailed introduction to Product Marketing in general and the OPP framework specifically. The book decomposes each step in the process and each deliverable.

The problem, this narrator’s voice tone and timbre come off as board and condescending. So much so that I’ve started and stopped the audio book a half dozen times before giving up and moving to the kindle version.

I thought it was just me so I asked both my manager and my team to review it and ALL of them gave me the same feedback. Terrible vocal performance for a reference/educational topic.

Seriously, get the kindle or paper edition instead.
