Most people just laugh when they hear that the secret to success is giving. Then again, most people are nowhere near as successful as they wish they were. ‘
The go-giver tells the story of an ambitious young man named joe who yearns for success. Joe is a true go-getter, though sometimes he feels as if the harder and faster he works, the further away his goals seem to be.
One day, desperate to land a key sale at the end of a bad quarter, he seeks advice from the enigmatic Pindar, a legendary consultant referred to by many devotees simply as the chairman. Over the next week, Pindar introduces joe to a series of successful ‘go-givers’ who teach him how to open himself up to the power of giving.
Joe learns that changing his focus from getting to giving – putting others’ interests first and continually adding value to their lives ultimately leads to unexpected results.
