People are Talking About The Philosophic Consultant "Every once in a while, a book comes along that illuminates the darkness of our time. This is the book for our time." --from the foreword by Warren Bennis "The complexity and fragility of our life at the beginning of the 21st Century can only be mastered by a new world ethos. Peter Koestenbaums new book provides the basic philosophical concept for meeting this challenge!" --Professor Klaus Schwab, founder and president, World Economic Forum, Geneva, Switzerland "Peter Koestenbaums latest book provides important insights into the fundamental drivers of leadership. For all of us in this complicated, challenging, and volatile business world, it provides a deep understanding of the key success factors in our personal and business lives." --John Devine, vice chairman and CFO, General Motors Corporation "Peter Koestenbaum has written an important book that looks beneath the cosmetic surface of leadership to probe some of the deeper issues of leading and living. The subjects he addresses are not new. They are some of the timeless issues of human existence. Yet, Peter manages to make them fresh and relevant especially for the traditional business reader who may have substituted accounting for philosophy in college. More than any contemporary writer, Peter Koestenbaum makes classical philosophy accessible and actionable for anxious executives. The subtitle is not overstated, this is a blueprint for revolutionizing organizations and the people who lead them." --Robert M. Fulmer, distinguished visiting professor, Graziadio School of Business, Pepperdine University and academic director, Duke Corporate Education

    Book arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.

    Seller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.
