Praying is hard, so is playing a professional sport, running a big business, or becoming a Navy SEAL. Unfortunately for most of us, we have convinced ourselves that praying is simply in the realm of religion or spirituality, and therefore, outside the realm of high performance. Recent research and insight from a wide array of disciplines implies that those who wish to pray well can learn a great deal from those who have achieved success in other areas.

If you've started and built a successful business, you have at some point thought about what happens when you're no longer around.   For some, there is a profitable exit right around the corner via a strategic acquisition.  For others, perhaps there is a recapitalization move that allows for some limited involvement after the closing.  While these are all fine moves, this book makes the case for selling the business to one's employees.  Admittedly, this isn't an option for everyone, but when appropriate, it can be the very definition of "win-win."
