Synopsis
This book is for the most driven among us. If you have the hunger, drive and commitment to do more and be more, then you'll love this book. Author and personal branding expert Chris Dessi set out to find the people that most inspired and captivated him, and uncover the secret strategies that anybody could use to become remarkable. The result is Just Like You - a collection of interviews with those inspiring and captivating individuals where they share what they learned on their climb to the top. Packed with inspiration, ideas and actionable advice on every page, Just Like You is a peek into the inner workings of some of the most successful people you've never met. One constant source of inspiration was the author's father, Adrian Dessi, who sadly lost his battle with ALS in February 2015. In his memory, 10% of all proceeds from this book will go towards funding research on combating ALS. Featured Interviews: RUSS ADLER Owner, Law Offices of Russell E.
