Driven

How to Succeed in Business and in Life

Edición de la obra Driven

Robert Herjavec has lived the classic "rags to riches" story. He has gone from having only $20 in his pocket to starting up technology companies worth hundreds of millions of dollars. The son of Croatian immigrants, Herjavec overcame the odds and amassed incredible wealth, doing so through pure hard work and determination. Currently a star on television's Dragons' Den and Shark Tank, where he bankrolls the best inventions and shoots down the best intentions, Herjavec always stresses the value of bold ideas, persistence and having the guts to make the tough decisions. And now, for the first time, he shares his hard-won wisdom in one of the most inspirational business books of the year. Driven is organized by the fifty work and life principles that made Robert Herjavec both wealthy and successful (indeed, these terms are not synonymous). He reveals the secrets that took him from waiting tables to growing his nascent technology company, The Herjavec Group, into a world-class conglomerate. He challenges his readers to learn from failure and to profit from changes, to recognize that everything in life involves selling and to understand that there is no finish line. His principles are as valuable in the living room as they are in the boardroom. Anyone can succeed, on their own terms, by following his sage but simple advice -- as long as they're willing to take chances, seize control of their future and stay true to their vision. Whether you're looking to finally go after that promotion, to take your business to the next level, or to pursue your dream of being an entrepreneur, Driven is an insightful and engaging roadmap to success. - Jacket flap.
