Product Description
John Wood found his inspiration, his biggest achievement, and the career of his life, not at the business school or helping to drive the push of Microsoft into Asia in the 1990s, but on a soul-searching journey to the Himalayas. He took the tough choice to step away from his prosperous job to establish Room to Read, a non-profit agency that supports reading in developed nations. By the end of 2007, the organization would have founded over 5,000 libraries and 400 schools and given long-term scholarships to over 3,000 students, providing the lifetime gift of education to more than one million children.
If you've ever dreamed of leaving your office job for an adventure and giving back an chance, Wood's tale will motivate you. He provides a vibrant, dramatic, and engaging story about how to take the skills gained at a hard-charging business such as Microsoft and adapt them to the most urgent societal challenges in the world.
