Hope for frustrated idealists

Ideal for people who work in or own any size company and fear they have 'sold out' in order to earn a living wage. McConnell demonstrates in humorous yet logical sequences how one can influence a corporate environment or control one's own decisions and settings with cooperative and socially responsible attitudes and more importantly, actions. Her short quizzes cut right to the issues and actual behaviors, leaving one with hope and even an action plan for becoming a "change activist."

And her case is backed up by many interviews with the likes of Anita Roddick of Body Shop fameI've recommended this to my website members and they've told me that it has helped them to - take control of their lives, turn up the volumen on what they really care about, and above all - make things happen.Definitely different and definitely recommended
