This exceptional work by April Ripley is one of the most profound, practical, principle-centered approaches to the subject of personal success, self-discovery and identity I have read in a long time. Every sentence of this book is pregnant with wisdom. I enjoyed the mind-expanding experience of reading this exciting and inspiring manuscript. I admonish you to plunge into this ocean of knowledge and watch your life change for the better as you experience the power of discovering your purpose, the keys to success and reason for your existence.

Everyone has a path to achieving individual and professional success. However, there are certain foundational keys that need not be overlooked. In "The Calling Card of Business: Success from the Inside Out", Dr. Ripley addresses some of the keys that lead to sustainability in life and business. From my experience in the areas of government, politics and business, I have had to rely on many of these keys not only for my well-being, but for the impact and influence of those whom I have worked hard to bring change and enfranchisement.

“The Calling Card of Business: Success from the Inside Out” is recommended for all who have the “urge to know”. April Ripley describes, in an exciting manner, what “one person can do”. I recommend you get a copy, now.
