Business Book Zingers: The Go-Giver

Go-Giver and Deliver: Transform being a go-getter into being a go-giver.

by David Zinger

1. Harvey Schachter, my favorite business book reviewer writing in Canada’s Globe and Mail wrote a review of The Go-Giver that piqued my attention.
2. My instant thought was, “not another one of these fables!” yet Harvey is a careful critic of business literature and not one to just take a bite out of anyone who moves cheese so he got my attention with his positive review of the book.
3. The Go-Giver using a fable format offers 5 powerful laws: value, compensation, influence, authenticity, and receptivity.
4. For example, the law of value states that your worth is based on how much more you give in value than how much you take in payment.
5. You may not learning something you didn’t already know but the story can help you ease up on being a Go-getter and leverage The Go-Giver laws to get yourself going in a richer direction.
