Rich Insight into the Motivation of Great Business Leaders
This is a collection of 54 2-5 page essays by giants of business over the past 200 years. I have found it to be simply fascinating... providing rich insight into the thoughts, values and strategies of great business leaders.
After reading this book, I am convinced that any great business leader only becomes so through the application of a STRONG personal conviction about a specific view of customers, partners, hard work, employees, life, etc.
One of the opportunities we all have is to help our children and co-workers discover or develop deep personal convictions that can be leveraged into a successful personal vision. This book could be a catalyst to develop this kind of vision.
Reading this book is a great investment of your time... for yourself, and for those you have a chance to influence.

An excellent book
This book is well worth the price. I hope I read this 15 years earlier when I was a teen. Although lots of the advices are common sense, they are still very valuable reminders. If you have a chance, read it. Similar Products
