Very inspirational and highly informative for anyone interested in getting on in business or the work world. Recommended for high school senior and any on a job search.
Inspiring story of self-made man, who started two Fortune 500 companies, commissioned many civic buildings and became a major philanthropist. I would have liked to hear more about how he grew his business. Nevertheless, he has many interesting observations on management style. Sometimes a bit trite and self-serving, but overall a good read and pretty interesting. Recommended.

Eli Broad's embrace of "unreasonable thinking" has helped him build two Fortune 500 companies, amass personal billions, and use his wealth to create a new approach to philanthropy. He has helped to fund scientific research institutes, K-12 education reform, and some of the world's greatest contemporary art museums. By contrast, "reasonable" people come up with all the reasons something new and different can't be done, because, after all, no one else has done it that way. This book shares the "unreasonable" principles—from negotiating to risk-taking, from investing to hiring—that have made Eli Broad such a success."
