What others have said about Defy Mediocrity"e;I think you have created another Masterpiece"e;Pat Garufi"e;Defy Mediocrity is a must read for every professional and for every young person coming out of college into the professional world. It clearly defines what sets the winners apart. I recommend all managers give this book to all incoming staff. "e;A review posted on Amazon.com"e;I was given a copy of (Defy Mediocrity) by my division retail manager and asked to read it. It lit me on fire. I have read through it four times and referred to it many more times. I think about something in the book every day because not only do the things you write about pertain to the business world but also to the family and the values we can try to instill in our children. If anyone reads this book and can't see that Mediocrity is surrounding us and trying to get its hold on us they obviously can't be too concerned about improving themselves.

However I have never read a book like yours. I think this book should be mandatory in all business schools.
