About this title

From AudioFile:

Ping founder Karsten Solheim is a man from a bygone generation of business leaders who made decisions with their hearts instead of their calculators. A motherless immigrant, Solheim started with a putter he developed and revolutionized the making of golf clubs, creating one of the largest golf equipment empires in the world. Though details of the equipment business are part of the audio, this is mainly the story of the founder's commitments to God, his family, his employees, and his business principles. Because the business world has changed, it's a story that's important, instructive, and not easily repeated in today's business culture.
