My guest today is Bob Burg, the co-author of The Go-Giver: A Little Story About a Powerful Business Idea. The book has sold over 950,000 copies and was rated #10 on Inc. Magazine's list of the Most Motivational Books Ever Written.
It’s great to be a Go-Getter, they take action and make things happen. But, it's even better to be a Go-Giver. Go-Givers reach high levels of success in their lives by focusing on giving to others and adding value to their lives. The Go-Giver is a parable about a man named Joe who seeks advice from a legendary consultant named Pindar. Pindar introduces Joe to several Go-Givers and learns about the power of giving.
