Publisher's summary

The founder and CEO of Path North, Georgetown University professor, and former White House advisor teaches you how to find meaning, balance, and purpose throughout your career while reaching the highest levels of professional achievement - how to do well without losing yourself.

Throughout his illustrious career, J. Douglas Holladay has taught generations of executives, as well as students in his popular MBA course at Georgetown, how to use a holistic approach to defining and reaching success in life and business.

Success does not come with an instruction manual. Too often, "successful" people end up feeling empty, isolated, and depressed because they have lost focus on what is most important in their lives. Rethinking Success can help anyone, no matter their field, maintain the practices and values that keep them in tune with their most cherished beliefs throughout their careers. Drawn from the insights of his network of famous friends as well as his experiences as an investment banker, White House advisor, diplomat, longtime business professor, and nonprofit consultant, the advice in Rethinking Success is centered around eight essential questions we must ask ourselves regularly to stay focused, connected, and joyful throughout our working lives.

Filled with essential wisdom, Rethinking Success is a powerful guide that allows us to do well while staying in tune with the values and beliefs that are most important to us.

Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

How to get unlost

I was looking for some reliable guidance on how to be more inspired. This book helped give me some perspective and to really pinpoint the areas my life such as taking risk and leaving a legacy where I could look for gaps that needed to be addressed. There’s a wealth of quotes and further readings and processes in this book such as the Hoffman process which provide lots of captivating side journeys and avenues for exploration. I appreciate the PDF question guide. All in all good, it's a good substitute for the course and coaching.

No me me resultó útil

No fue una lectura reveladora, tuvo algunos puntos interesantes que suman, pero no me pareció deslumbrante. Continuamente hace referencia a las grandes personalidades que conoció en sus puestos políticos y suena más a una publicidad de su carrera que a querer compartir su conocimiento..creo que puede servirle a gente que viene de una familia adinerada que tiene aspectos de la vida resueltos pero que le falta contacto humano en aspectos como amistad, entendimiento del otro o simple empatía. Es por esto que intenta cambiar la mentalidad de ése tipo de personas para que consideren el éxito en base a otras variables que no sean el dinero o el poder (porque ya lo tienen)
