Synopsis

History wasn’t changed by playing it safe.

Amundsen braved the poles. Brunel built the impossible. Teddy Roosevelt redefined leadership.
Audacious Goals, Remarkable Results tells the true stories of these three men. They dared to think bigger, push harder, and change the world.

Blending history, biography, and motivational insight, Audacious Goals, Remarkable Results reveals how three extraordinary people conquered significant challenges—and how you can apply the same principles to achieve greatness in your own life or career.
