On the Shoulders of Giants

We love the myth of the self-made success. But almost everyone worth admiring got where they are by standing on someone's shoulders — a mentor, a parent, a teacher, a manager who believed in them before they believed in themselves.

This book is about those people. The ones who shaped us quietly, often without knowing it. And it's about the harder question that follows: whose shoulders are you offering now?

It has become my most-read book, and the response readers keep sending back is the same — it made them want to pick up the phone and thank someone.
