This book sets out to remind readers why they work, and why they were chosen to lead. It's about finding the bravery to act on what they know is right--and building teams with the same courage. Above all, it's about winning the right way.

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.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The American Dream is a powerful and defining force, but it is never as feverish in pursuit of material gain. Achieving your dream requires sweat, courage, commitment, talent, integrity, vision, faith, and a few breaks. #2 The ability to start a business from scratch, the opportunity to lead that company to greatness, the entrepreneurial freedom to risk everything on a roll of the marketplace dice, and the chance to rise from clerk to CEO are the feedstock of America’s economic greatness. #3 There is a new void in values that has produced a level of deception, betrayal, and indecency that is breathtaking. The path to perdition is enticing, slippery, and all downhill. What is needed is a booster shot of commonly held moral principles. #4 The values of our youth are not to be conveniently molded to fit particular situations. They are indelibly etched in our very beings as natural impulses that never go stale.
