What does a lawyer have to say about the soul of the firm? Can a professor or businessman improve upon the answer? Life has provided Bill Pollard with all of these work experiences. But there is more to work than the experience. Without people, work can be dull and empty. People provide the life, the vitality, the conscience, and, yes, even the soul of the firm.

If you lead others or aspire to do so, this book is about you and the pregnant potential of the people with whom you work or whom you lead. Together you have the potential to produce value—value measured in who you are becoming, value measured in what you are producing, and value measured in the worth of your combined effort.
