Description

This book pays homage to Mark McCormack, author of "What They Don't Teach You At Harvard Business School" that was published in 1983 and was a best-seller for over 10 years. This 2009 version has been updated but still focuses on sales, entrepreneurship and reading people. It has a case study inside the book that doubles as a movie rights pitch for the book. This hasn't been done before. The case study is about three strippers that start a company in community college (aren't all strippers students). It does peer to peer lending and is called ProsperAss. Two of the three end up going to Stanford which is also its Chapter 16, "You actually wanna go to Stanford". There aren't book signings but there will be chapter release parties. Instead of a boring author signing or book reading, it is a knowledge activation party where every chapter has a theme :-) It will be fun. It comes out 09-09-09.
