I have no idea.  My latest book, The Purpose Effect, published May 10, some ten days ago.  A few people have been kind enough to ask, "How is the book launch going, Dan?" or "How are book sales, Dan?" The questions come from a place of kindness. I respect the questioners' curiosity and interest in me and/or the book.  But truthfully I don't know.  Perhaps more importantly I don't care.  Well, I do care, but not from a sales perspective, per se. What I care about is that the book makes a difference, that it is making a difference.  If that difference is with one person, fab!  For example, I received the following:
I think we all seek "purpose". That purpose will change over time and may be multi-factorial in nature. Thanks Dan for helping me start finding mine again.
That's all I need to know.  Someone was touched by the book. The words meant something to someone. The prose is making a difference.  And that's good enough for me.

    Barb Kinnard, CEO Response Biomedical Corp
  • Dan not only brought his presentation to life with his charisma, but also content, style and presentation finesse. Our members were especially interested in his thought provoking and top of mind topic on the future of work and how we’re going to be leading the next generation of leaders.

    Cheryl Goodwin, CPA
  • Dan is a conference organizer’s ideal speaker. Not only did he inspire and energize our group, but he also masterfully adapted his content so it resonated with the audience and our conference theme. As a bonus, Dan is able to nimbly navigate to adjust to a reduced time slot when other speakers went over time without sacrificing the impact of his session.

    Director and General Counsel
  • Dan accomplished what we set out to do, which was not only to be inspirational, but also to leave everyone with tools and food for thought / self-reflection to improve their personal and professional lives.

    Hermann Handa, FCT
