Synopsis

A good job, hard work, IQ, EQ, good communication skills--these are all ingredients for a successful life. The presence of these elements alone, however, does not guarantee success. To convert them into long-term success, you need certain stimuli which precipitate or accelerate your growth. This robustly effective book identifies the various catalysts that you can cultivate and how you can leverage them to propel yourself in your work and life. Accessible, engaging and easy to follow, and written by someone who has experienced all this in real life and not in theory, Catalyst will arm you with the right tools to succeed at your work place and get the most out of every moment, every day.

Review:

Read Catalyst over weekend. Super impressed with the content and the power it has to make positive difference in personal and professional life. What stands out for me 1. Written by somebody who has lived by those principles hence not just at concept level. 2. Very practical approach on how concepts can be brought to life... with some discipline. 3. Applicable to all experience bracket/freshers and is industry agnostic Very powerful, a friend for life...Happy reading --By Devesh Goyal on 12 February 2018
