De: Ken Coleman

Narrado por: Ken Coleman

Right now, 70 percent of Americans aren’t passionate about their work and are desperately longing for meaning and purpose. They’re sick of “average” and know there’s something better out there, but they just don’t know how to reach it.

One basic principle - The Proximity Principle - can change everything you thought you knew about pursuing a career you love.

In his latest book, The Proximity Principle, national radio host and career expert Ken Coleman provides a simple plan of how positioning yourself near the right people and places can help you land the job you love.

Forget the traditional career advice you’ve heard! Networking, handing out business cards, and updating your online profile do nothing to set you apart from other candidates. Ken will show you how to be intentional and genuine about the connections you make with a fresh, unexpected take on resumes and the job interview process. You’ll discover the five people you should look for and the four best places to grow, learn, practice, and perform so you can step into the role you were created to fill.

After listening to The Proximity Principle, you’ll know how to connect with the right people and put yourself in the right places, so opportunities will come - and you’ll be prepared to take them.

A book that is excellent but not for sissies!

Work the book to get your best work! Read the book alone = wasted time.

Great Book!

I learned a lot. I'm definitely going to implement these principles in my life. This is a well written book and the author did a great job narrating.

Brilliant!

Ken Coleman, the world needed you! You are a light to many. Read this book and listen to Ken's podcast of you are living for the weekend.

Great information

interesting information. absolutely helped to get motivated. If you are thinking about changing a career, then this is a great book to get you motivated.

Must-Read

A must-read for all young people or those looking for direction in their career, hobby, or side hustle.

Definitely one to read for high achievers❗️

This is a great book. I only wish that I had read it sooner or at least come across the information that is within us a few years sooner. Sometimes I look at the opportunities that I dealt with and thought were bad steppingstone start now, in actuality, or me getting the breakthrough that I need it and a connection inside that was willing to help me. Now that I am older I understand how I completely blew a few opportunities that I had the wrong perspective on I could’ve potentially open up Grace in my life a lot sooner.


This is one of those books that I highly recommend for anyone that is trying to figure out if the career path that they have in the crappy foot in the door that they may have is actually an opportunity for them to turn that into something major and be a corner stone to how they gain their success.

Good common sense

Good book. I can’t say I learned much. He articulated something I was already doing and gave it a catchy name. I’d recommend particularly to those early on in their careers as well as those looking to change careers.
I liked that it was only 4 hours. Any longer and it would’ve been overkill.

Impact and action

Easy read that is full of real stories and examples of how to apply the proximity principles. Challenges us to stop using the shotgun approach to networking and marketing, and to use our own social networks.

Must read, even for those that “think” they have it right.

Ken Colman puts the proximity principle to work with his words and experiences and scenarios that can nearly fit every person where they are at. As an Author myself, I appreciate his heart and honesty he puts forth in this book. Great job Ken. I will be promoting this book to others.

Motivation at its best!

If this book does nothing else, it should motivate you to do better in life.
