Description

Bestselling author Jon Gordon returns with his most inspiring book yet—filled with powerful lessons and the greatest success strategies of all.

Michael wakes up in the hospital with a bandage on his head and fear in his heart. The stress of building a growing business, with his wife Sarah, caused him to collapse while on a morning jog. When Michael finds out the man who saved his life is a Carpenter he visits him and quickly learns that he is more than just a Carpenter; he is also a builder of lives, careers, people, and teams.

As the Carpenter shares his wisdom, Michael attempts to save his business in the face of adversity, rejection, fear, and failure. Along the way he learns that there's no such thing as an overnight success but there are timeless principles to help you stand out, excel, and make an impact on people and the world.

Drawing upon his work with countless leaders, sales people, professional and college sports teams, non-profit organizations and schools, Jon Gordon shares an entertaining and enlightening story that will inspire you to build a better life, career, and team with the greatest success strategies of all.

If you are ready to create your masterpiece, read The Carpenter and begin the building process today.

    I read this book in a few hours. My husband recommended it to me and thought I would take him up on his recommendation. I'm so glad I did. It reminds us why we always try and do the right things when we don't always feel like it. Great read

    Wow! I can't recall exactly how I heard about this book, but I am absolutely grateful I read it. It's a wonderful book, a spirit lifter and booster. I love the use of words and the simplicity of the book, it's exciting to read. I didn't want to finish reading it but I couldn't stop reading it either. I simply love this book, will recommend it to everyone. Great work from both Jon Gordon and Ken Blanchard.

    Loaded. Was afraid same would happen if I purchased through iBooks. I bought through Amazon Kindle for same price. With that said, an absolutely brilliant book. Very heartwarming and inspirational.
