Reviews

Author and financial mogul Trump (The Art of the Deal) shares secrets on how he achieved his amazing financial success. These highly personal tips include how to impress a boss and get a raise; how efficiently to manage a business; how to hire, motivate, and fire employees; how to negotiate anything; and how to maintain the quality of a brand. These inside stories are based on the author's experiences, including lessons learned from the hit reality TV show The Apprentice. Listeners will admire The Donald's ability to recover from his now famous near financial ruin when the real estate market bottomed out in the late 1980s and rebound to remain one of the world's most colorful entrepreneurs. Narrator Barry Bostwick's solid reading adds further power to the already substantive contribution by the multibillionaire. Highly recommended for all public libraries.
