An Official Publication of The Napoleon Hill Foundation
Introduction by Don M. Green, Executive Director, Napoleon Hill Foundation
"I am grateful I know Cavett. Early in my speaking career when I had the privilege of speaking on the platform with him, he encouraged me often to write a book. He assured me I had something to say and knew how to say it and that it would benefit others. With his encouragement, I wrote See You At the Top, which has now been published in hardback for over 30 years. I believe you would do well to read his book and follow through on what he has to say. This special edition will be a keepsake for you for the rest of your life you now live. Take advantage of it—it's a rare opportunity."
—Zig Ziglar, CPAE, Speaker Hall of Fame, Recipient of Cavett Award
"Success with People is a book for the ages. Cavett Robert writes for heart, he educates, motivates and inspires. When you finish reading this book, you will understand how his wisdom, warmth and humor impacted millions."
—Charles "Tremendous" Jones, CPAE Speaker Hall of Fame
"Cavett always talked about profiting from OPE—Other People's Experience. This Cavett classic lets you stand on the shoulders of one of the giants. Don't just buy the book; devour it."
—Terry Paulson, CPAE, Speaker Hall of Fame Recipient of Cavett Award
"Cavett was a transformational leader who influenced the lives of millions and impacted untold audiences with his authentic message and his insightful wisdom."

Cavett Roberts NSA was founded in 1973 by Cavett Robert who was born November 14, 1907 in Starkville, Mississippi and died in September 1997. Members still hold to a code of helping one another known as "The Spirit of Cavett" and in honor of Cavett's birthday, NSA celebrates the "Spirit of NSA" day every November 14. Even though he suffered from stage fright in his younger years, Cavett Robert joined Toastmasters International and went on to receive his first paid speech at the age of 61. Cavett's idea for NSA began with just 35 attendees of the Phoenix Summer Sales Seminar in 1969. After years of work, the National Speakers Association was incorporated on July 12, 1973. Cavett Robert's hope was to build a bigger pie so everyone could have a bigger slice. In July 1979, Cavett Robert was honored with NSA's first Member of the Year Award, later renamed "The Cavett Award," which is awarded to the member who best exemplifies the qualities of caring, sharing, loving and making a difference in people's lives.
