5.0 out of 5 stars An Extremely Valuable Book for Students & Young Adults Looking for Direction
Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2020
Verified Purchase
As a person that has worked over twenty five years in career services at a higher education institution, I HIGHLY recommend this book to all teenagers and young adults (along with their parents) who are searching for success and meaning in their lives.

Currently, high school and college students are being faced with decisions on what direction they should go with their futures. There are so many distractions that can get in the way of their personal and professional development (not to mention a pandemic that has helped with their malaise). John Walsh has put together a wonderful blueprint that can assist in giving simple instruction on not only how to succeed, but also how to live your "best life."

Adding his own personal stories helps tremendously in providing clarity to the points he is relaying. I have shared this publication with our career center management team and we are definitely planning on recommending Mr. Walsh's vision to our college students and future business leaders.

We are looking forward to your future speaking engagements and publications.

This book is made for YOU and will change the way you think about your career and what's important to you.

From years of first-hand experiences and research, John Walsh has gathered all the best insights on standing out in easy to digest chapters. Through humility and honesty, you will learn many simple concepts, analogies, and frameworks that can help you shine brightly no matter where you are on your journey...fresh out of school or 20 years in the same field. I highly recommend for all types of learners; there are plenty of charts, key takeaways, and questions to reinforce the ideas and help you take the first step to becoming a Standout. What a great read!

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book for those starting out, or restarting

I have heard John Walsh previously, and bought The Standout Experience as a guide for my oldest child (just starting college). This book strikes a nice balance between inspiration and tactical guidance. And it's not just for students or new grads--there is a lot here for those of us who feel stagnant in our work or in need of a restart. Highly recommended.
