Description

Self-made millionaire Harvey Mackay knows about life at the top, and he knows what it takes to stay there. Now, he tells listeners how to get there, too, with dozens of common-sense lessons from all walks of life. Those who are selling, managing, or punching the clock will find the answers to questions like: Do you do what you love? (The Mackay self-inventory test will help to find out.) Do you love what you do? Do you deliver more than you promise? From closing the sale to setting off show more independently, from managing in the trenches to asking for a raise, the business philosophy that has worked for millions can work for the listener, too. show less
