The differentiating mindset and habits that help you turn insight into action.
When you put learning at the center of everything you do, you grow your career, your leadership, your relationships, and your joy and fulfillment in life. But even for people who are naturally curious and interested in solving problems, being an effective learner who can turn their learning into action takes insight and practice.
With infectious enthusiasm and optimism, David Novak shows you how to master active learning. A trailer-park kid who lived in twenty-three states before entering high school, Novak rapidly ascended the ranks at PepsiCo to become cofounder and CEO of one of the largest corporations in the world, the global restaurant icon Yum! Brands (KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, and the Habit Burger Grill). And he credits active learning with getting him there. This compilation of wisdom and practical habits from Novak's life and from some of the most successful leaders in the world—CEOs from many industries, military and political leaders, sports greats, experts, and coaches—is your active-learning practice manual. Chapter by chapter, Novak and his all-star roster of leaders share how they've climbed to the highest levels in their fields.

      Chris Abernathy's clipped narration exudes the enthusiasm of David Novak, who believes that the best leaders commit to a lifetime of learning. Novak's charmed ascent from a trailer park childhood to cofounding Yum! Brands is made more remarkable by his approach to business leadership. Social media, fantasy films, and gaming references abound, and listeners dedicated to those may well be the best audience for this audiobook. Abernathy excels when the author describes the input of an all-star roster of accomplished professionals such as Warren Buffett and Jack Nicklaus. The key idea in this audiobook is that a good leader needs to "learn from, learn to, and learn by"--using all resources available. Abernathy smooths the listener's way through this practical guide.
