Swim with the Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive - Softcover

Harvey Mackay is a bestselling author whose books include the mega-selling Swim with the Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive; and a nationally syndicated columnist, whose weekly business advice appears in fifty newspapers around the United States. He is an active corporate CEO and a prominent civic leader. He and his family live in Minneapolis.

Bestselling author and envelope magnate Mackay exhorts listeners to work harder and smarter, weaving personal anecdotes into a creed of success through persistence, instinct, and planning. Hard-boiled business advice like this benefits managers, salespeople, and entrepreneurs of every stripe, especially those susceptible to hale-fellow-well-met sentiments and Knute Rockne drive. Not without humor, not without a dash of humility, Mackay offers nuggets of advice that may help listeners excel. Oh, and the "sharks"--they are apparently other businesspeople who cut their teeth on Napoleon Hill and Dale Carnegie. This piece would benefit from a casual interview with the author after the reading. D.J.B. © AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
