Do you ever find yourself losing sight of the important things
in life-work and stress can become overwhelming at times. Such is
the situation where CEO Roger Kimbrough finds himself in this
business parable.
"The Janitor" was inspired by Todd Hopkins's personal
experiences of interviewing overqualified retired businessmen for
evening shift janitorial positions. Todd's applicants consistently
would say they simply needed something to do. In this fable,
janitor Bob Tidwell helps Roger to reevaluate how he is leading his
business and his life. Bob's counsel is based upon six principles
that Todd and coauthor Ray Hilbert discovered have the most impact
on succeeding in business while holding together a personal life.
Their insightful advice is delivered in a real-to-life story that
inspires you to find greater fulfillment in your life.
Like so many CEOs in the corner office, still working when the
janitor arrives to do the nightly cleaning, Roger is having a
difficult and stressful evening when he spills his guts to the
older janitor. As their relationship develops, Bob, a retired
businessman, promises help that will turn Roger's business and
personal life around. The story follows not only their weekly
meetings at the office but also the application of each principle:
Recharge vs. Discharge View Family as a Blessing, Not a
Responsibility Pray, Don't Pout Pass It Around Don't Spend, Invest
Leave a Legacy
"The Janitor"'s message will capture your mind and heart;
stimulate meaningful, lasting life-changes; and show you how to
influence your family, neighbors, and coworkers while experiencing
business and life to the fullest.
"Take a few minutes and devour this little book by Todd Hopkins
and Ray Hilbert. It's going to be a motivational classic, and
you'll be in on the first wave of inspired readers." - Pat
Williams, Senior Vice President, Orlando Magic; and Author, "The
Warrior Within"
