Peter has not owned a company (that made significant revenue anyway). He is not the biggest technical person. He has not invented any particularly break-through process for industry to utilize. He has not written any bestselling books. Peter IS just like you. The one thing he DOES have to share, is the way any of us can have a greater impact on our organization and for ourselves personally.

2) Learn the effects of highly engaged employees on an organization.
