About the Book:
Although it's a fairly short fiction story, the character of Stan kept me fully engaged all the way through. The principles are so basic, yet I felt like I was learning them all over again...they came to life and feel more real now than ever before.
The book Catapulted makes you think about where you are, how you are, what values you have and how you make use of it, how to develop the leadership and relationship, where you want to be, both professionally and personally, and provides the decision-making tools to get there.
Dave's perspective is valuable and a great help to anyone who leads a team, or wants to progress into leadership.
This book contains simple, profound guidance to all in an easy way to read. The story has explained in a very realistic and simple example.
I felt like it was written just for me. I read it my first time in two hours...I couldn't put it down.
I have been able to identify areas that I can improve in my own leadership journey. The book gave me plenty to think about and an action plan for improving.
