i found this book to be very inspiring. i wasn't sure what to make of it as i have read so many career books for my work at this point, but this one has a wide variety of scenarios and tells the whole story of the person from who they were when they were young, where they went to school and what they ended up doing that was most rewarding. i think this gives a wider range of options for people to consider and as there are many case studies people are sure to relate to one of them.

The book makes a good case for business motivations beyond greed, such as a concern to bless your community.

An excellent book that brings into focus how we can serve the community while doing what we most enjoy and can give our best to it.

Couldn't finish it. Organized poorly, skipping around, distracting quotes inserted in the middle of stories.
