Description
Book SynopsisWe live in an era of American history shaped by a sense of discouragement so enormous that it is holding us hostage and paralyzing our forward progress. The core values that have made us a great nation---our ingenuity, hard work, perseverance and concern for one another as fellow citizens---are threatened by a toxic combination of greed, fraud, incompetence and exploitation. The result for all strata of our society is a condition of imbalance, mistrust, uncertainty and cynicism. Hence, what rises to the surface is not our American can-do-ness but rather our deepest, craziest fear (False Evidence Appearing Real).
Trade Review"Every time I speak with JoAn I learn something new--few people in life can affect others in this way. JoAn has a unique way of viewing the world. I mean, sometimes it seems as if we’re looking at the same scene, through the same window, and JoAn sees the picture in a way none of us had. 16 Steps does just that! JoAn cuts through clutter with incisiveness and commonsense rationale."
