Up for Auction: Lawler Kang, a Man Who Continues to Beat the Odds
February 27th, 2010
From: Chris Deaver
We just launched a great auction with Lawler Kang, a man who continues to beat the odds. His bio is below:
Lawler’s philosophies on life—and work’s place in it—have been shaped significantly by his conquering the after-effects of a cerebral aneurysm, sustained at 14, and three additional major surgeries before the age of 21.
After 15 years of corporate and entrepreneurial leadership, Lawler was on vacation and started doodling a process that became the genesis of the Engagement Drivers. Soon thereafter, he walked away from empire building, wrote Passion at Work, whose tools and philosophy laid the foundation for Ingage’s current work.
Entrepreneurial endeavors have included founding a socially responsible import firm out of Yogyakarta, Indonesia and an Internet services firm.

AUCTION ALERT: Get Mentored by Daniel Pink, Mega-Influencer and Author of “Drive”
February 4th, 2010
From: Chris Deaver
The Daniel Pink auction has officially launched!
Check it out and bid here.
This is an exclusive opportunity to connect with one of the top minds in motivation and business. He’s a New York Times bestselling author of several books, and a thought leader.
Check out what they say about Mr. Pink’s work:
Drive: The Surprising Truth about What Motivates Us
“Pink’s ideas deserve a wide hearing. Corporate boards, in fact, could do well by kicking out their pay consultants for an hour and reading Pink’s conclusions instead.”
- Forbes
“Fascinating . . . If Pink’s proselytizing helps persuade employers to make work more fulfilling, Drive will be a powerhouse.”
- USA Today
“Pink’s analysis–and new model–of motivation offers tremendous insight into our deepest nature.”
– Publishers Weekly
“Important reading…an integral addition to a growing body of literature that argues for a radical shift in how businesses operate.”
– Kirkus
“Drive is the rare book that will get you to think and inspire you to act. Pink makes a strong, science-based case for rethinking motivation–and then provides the tools you need to transform your life.”
–Dr. Mehmet Oz, co-author of YOU: The Owners Manual
“Pink’s a gifted writer who turns even the heaviest scientific study into something digestible — and often amusing — without losing his intellectual punch.”
- New York Post
“Enchanting . . . an important book offering a whole new way to think about motivation.”
- Globe and Mail
A Whole New Mind
“This book is a miracle. Completely original and profound.”
-Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence
“It’s my favorite business book.”
-Thomas Friedman, author of The World is Flat
