Critics Review
“Charles Handy is a true statesman in the field … a wizened dean of faculty for the world of independent thinkers.” Jim Collins, author ofGood to Great
[Goes] deeper into the heart of business than almost any book that tackles the subject head on … A compelling, touching and finally inspiring journey … To paraphrase TS Eliot, his remarkable achievement is to bring us back to our starting point - but allow us to recognise the place for the first time * Observer *
Highly readable … A wise work from which we will all learn * Sunday Times *
Handy at his best; humane, thoughtful and serious * Financial Times *
His writing is both spiritual … and practical: he makes you want to do something about your life, and at the same time convinces that you can, and furnishes you with some good examples of how to go about it … So much of it will strike home … Real inspiration … excellent advice * Times Educational Supplement *
