The Rabbi and the CEO - The Ten...

Thomas D. Zweifel, Aaron L. Raskin

What if you had the secret sauce of some of the most successful people? Use this 10-part system based on the Ten Commandments to win big.
What if you got access to the secret DNA that had a tiny fraction of humanity (0.2%) win 22% of all Nobel prizes and succeed disproportionately in many fields of human endeavor?
What if you had a system for building success predictably— professionally and personally?
Amazingly, such a toolbox has been hiding in plain view for 3,000 years. It’s… the Ten Commandments. But not the dusty Ten Commandments you know.
It took teaming up a Rabbi and a CEO to harness the power of the Ten Commandments for today’s challenges.
In a unique synergy, Dr. Zweifel, CEO Emeritus, Columbia professor and award-winning author of 8 books like Strategy-In-Action and Leadership in 100 Days, joined with Rabbi Raskin, Jewish leader and author of Letters of Light, to blend the timeless wisdom of the Ten Commandments with a cutting-edge methodology from 35+ years of management.
"The leadership wisdom contained here is timeless, powerful and actionable—just what you'd expect when you combine a Rabbi and a CEO!"—Professor Scott A. Snook, Harvard Business School
Jews are not the “People of the Book” by accident. Torah, Talmud and Kabbalah hold life-and-death leadership stories and astonishingly practical lessons for 21st-century managers and leaders.
You need not be Jewish or religious to profit from these timeless secrets. They’ve stood the test of time.
If you like gripping stories, but also step-by-step guides and humor, then you’ll love Zweifel’s and Raskin’s award-winning book.
Put The Rabbi and the CEO to work today and build the sustainable success you always wanted.
