Synopses & Reviews
In today’s tenuous business climate, employers and employees alike are glued to the ground, unsure of the path they should take or whether they have the freedom to move forward; in other words, they can’t get clear, get free, or get going to achieve their goals. Master networker Joe Sweeney, who’s delivered nearly 150 keynote talks to large corporations like General Electric, Wells Fargo, and Northwestern Mutual heard a consistent refrain from CEOs, vice presidents, businessmen and business women, military personnel, and college graduates following his presentations: “Can you help move the needle at our company and improve performance on a consistent basis?” What Joe noticed was that these companies and their employees were having a hard time getting clear, getting free, and getting going in their professional as well as their personal lives. Sensing a vital need, Joe has written Moving the Needle for anyone looking to work his or her way out of a wagon rut or make key transition in life.
