Description
Winner of a 2011 eLit Award, "Business with a Heart" is the story of a young woman who, rising in the corporate ranks, treads a winding path of business, personal life, and spirituality, learning that these segments of our lives are never far apart. Her search for a more fulfilled corporate existence is nearly stymied in the crosshairs of a demanding boss, resistant subordinates, and her own unfortunate oversights. While written in novel format, this book is filled with guidance, choices, and ideas to help you create your own style of "business with a heart." Author Crystal Thomas is a renowned speaker, coach, and author in the private club industry. She excelled at a young age as a general manager in the same industry. The following three decades of GM experience educated her on the need for a coaching organization that could support businesses in incorporating into the "heart" aspect - one that mutually benefited upper management, team members, and members/customers alike, while still advancing the bottom line. Hence, she founded Crystal Clear Concepts in 2005. In this book, you will see experiences similar to your own and Crystal's where the challenge of balancing head and heart is not an easy task, yet the results merit it an action worthy of full pursuit.

Advance Praise
I just finished reading your book (Business with a Heart) on my
plane trip home from DC. Wow! What a wake up call. I could not help
but see myself as Mr. Hatcher later in life, unless I develop some of
the skills in the book. Great job. I will be ordering copies for all of
my department heads.
A
must read. Written in novel form, similar to a Ken Blanchard writing,
Crystal Thomas truly shares the importance of having a heart in the
business world. I was able to read this book on a flight between San
Francisco and Chicago, then give the book to my daughter who is just
starting out in the “business world.” I highly recommend this book to
everyone who has put work ahead of personal growth, family and friends.
This book is a great reminder that living life and sharing your life
with others is becoming more important then ever in the world of
business….Can’t wait
