“How timely! How needed it is for one of the finest human beings, industrial leaders and philanthropists on the planet to compellingly drill down on 10 timeless, universal values for business and life. This book edifies, inspires and motivates all of us to model these commonsensical lessons for our organizations, all our relationships and especially our posterity—for what is common sense is obviously not common practice.

Primary greatness is character and contribution. Secondary greatness is how most people define success—wealth, fame, position, etc. Few have both. Jon’s one of them. ”

- Dr. Stephen R. Covey, author, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and The 8^th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness

Synopsis -

Next time someone tells you business can’t be done ethically — corners must be cut, negotiations can’t be honest — hand them Jon Huntsman’s new book. He started with practically nothing, and made it to Forbes’list of America’s Top 100 richest people. Huntsman’s generous about sharing the credit, but in the 21st century, he’s the nearest thing to a self-made multi-billionaire. Now, he presents the lessons of a lifetime: a passionate, inspirational manifesto for returning to the days when your word was your bond, a handshake was sacred, and swarms of lawyers weren’t needed to back it up. This is no mere exhortation: it’s a practical business book about how to listen to your moral compass, even as others ignore theirs. It’s about how you build teams with the highest values, share success, take responsibility, and earn the rewards that only come with giving back. Huntsman’s built his career and fortune on these principles. You don’t live these principles just to ‘succeed’: you live them because they’re right. But in an age of non-stop business scandal, Huntsman’s life proves honesty is more than right: it’s the biggest competitive differentiator.
