How does a nearsighted, acrophobic, boy next door become an airline pilot and leader at some of the world's most successful airlines? The answer to this question and more is revealed in "TAKE OFF! 21 High-Flying Secrets for Career Success."
This clever, funny, collection of stories describes the qualities successful people share, some of the challenges they have faced and what they learned from them. While a few of the stories are about the author, most are about the innovative, brilliant and famous people he met who left an inspirational mark -- including Sully Sullenberger, Jeff Bezos, and Richard Branson.
Find out how you can learn from them, too.
