An iconic teacher. A warm friend. A generous mentor. For more than 40 years, Howard Stevenson has been a towering figure at Harvard Business School; the man who literally defined entrepreneurship and taught thousands of the world's most successful professionals.
Spurred by Stevenson's brush with death in 2007—his student, colleague and dear friend Eric Sinoway resolved to share the wisdom and inspiration gleaned from this man so admired. Howard's Gift: Uncommon Wisdom to Inspire Your Life's Work offers Stevenson's timeless lessons on life and career. Full of deep insight and warm and engaging conversations, this guide presents savvy, practical strategies that can be applied to professional decisions on any scale by individuals and organizations.
Howard's Gift is an award-winning book described as "life-changing" and "transformational." The deeply personal perspectives from guest contributors—like CNN correspondent Soledad O'Brien, Teach for America Founder Wendy Kopp and MTV Founder Bob Pittman—reinforce how this timeless book will help readers "define success in their own terms" and "live a life with no regrets."

Inspired by his relationship with iconic Harvard Business School professor, Howard H. Stevenson, Sinoway's book, Howard's Gift: Uncommon Wisdom to Inspire Your Life's Work, was a Top 10 Amazon Business Book upon its release. It is now sold around the world and is available in five languages.
Sinoway is a highly sought-after speaker, advisor and instructor whose work on strategy and partnership development has been featured at corporations, associations and universities.

It was this experience that led to his professional role in the University's development office.
