Winner of the Axiom Award for best leadership book How many times have you arrived at work, exchanged greetings with your colleagues, attended a meeting or two, and then sat down at your desk overcome by the incredible feeling that you were surrounded by geniuses?

And, second, that we are surrounded by a world filled with genius that can be used to transform any team, company, or organization in order to deliver compelling customer value. So grab your curiosity and your most comfortable shoes. It's time for a remarkable trip to your future success! Praise for Dr. Alan S.
