33. WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"Shift The Work solves the riddle of the connection between engagement at work
and engagement with life: If you don't have the first, you can't have the second. In
this engaging, interactive work, Joe Mechlinski draws from his own impressive life
experiences to show how to go all in in everything you do. This is an inspiring read.”
Daniel H. Pink, author of WHEN and TO SELL IS HUMAN
“Joe is not new to the world of best selling books. His bluntness is clarity and
should not be confused with the typical powerpoint business advice books. Behind
his words is a compassion for allowing people to better themselves by an embrace
of clarity of purpose. This is an excellent read.”
Richard Saul Wurman, author, and creator of TED
“Shift the Work reminded me that vulnerability is a powerful force for creating trust
and inspiring change in people and in organizations. It has moved me to be a better
leader, follower, friend and sibling. Read this stuff. Because it matters. A lot!!”
Patrick Murphy, CEO, John Hancock Retirement Plan Services
