This unique book offers a proven approach to succeeding in business and life without sacrificing your principles. "A powerful book... certain to change many lives". -- Og Mandino, author of The Greatest Salesman in the World.
In On My Honor, I Will , Pennington and Bockmon choose the Boy Scout Oath as a model for ethical business behavior. They base each chapter on one of the scout tenets: "To Do My Best," "To Do My Duty," "To God and My Country." Chapter discussions are anecdotal, each ending with oversimplified guidelines for ethical behavior (e.g., stand by your beliefs or associate with people of integrity) and a hokey exercise such as listing your favorite ethical heroes. The authors encourage the reader to write down "things I will do to honor my commitment to keep the scout law." This book is gimmicky, something this reviewer would be willing to forgive if it were a good gimmick. Not recommended.
