Reviews

This book is gold. As you read it, you will inevitably identify with some of the stories and wisdom. You will find yourself reflecting on your own life and career, and getting excited as you glimpse possibilities for playing a much bigger game than the current path you see yourself on. Brian is truly a man to cross the river with. He has been a great friend, coach and encourager through the mountains and the valleys, and we have crossed a number of big rivers together over the years. He continues to be a significant influence in expanding my sense of what’s possible as a leader.
