The Entrepreneur's Creed: The Principles & Passions of 20 Successful Entrepreneurs

by Merrill J. Oster, Mike Hamel

The son of Italian immigrants, Jerry has become one of the most powerful men in sports. One of only a handful of "triple aces" in World War II, Ken returned from a POW camp to start a business he later sold for $139 million. A mother of seven, Noel has been called "the third most powerful businesswoman in L.A." At a time when people are looking for spiritual meaning and purpose in their work, stories of people with depth and balance in their lives who have overcome remarkable obstacles yet achieved remarkable success are more inspirational than ever. Authors Oster and Hamel tell twenty such inspirational stories outlining these entrepreneurs' commitment to God, genuine love of people, willingness to take risks, and ability to learn and adapt to change. The Entrepreneur's Creed combines sage counsel on how to be spiritually and ethically grounded with sound wisdom on success.

[J Roberts · Rating 1 out of 5]

Worth every cent I paid for it. Of course, it was free. It starts with an example from a fund company that might as well be defunct. A couple more chapters in and you can't help but notice the book is more about finding a personal jesus than business. I quickly decided recycling the book for scrap paper was the best use for it. The book was utterly useless.
