Defining Moments: Stories of Character, Courage, and Leadership

Saturday, September 3rd, 2005

0825305411-cover During his remarkable voluntary career, Gordon Zacks has worked closely with three American presidents, five Israeli prime ministers, and countless others who have made a difference in the world through their character, courage and leadership. Defining Moments is an anthology of profiles and first hand accounts that describe these courageous and extraordinary leaders – most well known, but some not – who seized the moment to make the world a better place.

Each of the individuals profiled in Defining Moments was challenged to do the right thing at a critical moment. None of them, Zacks maintains, would have had the courage to do so without strong personal character and a clear moral compass. The stories are built around Zacks’ personal experience and penetrating understanding of human goals and motivations.

From each of these individuals, and many more, Zacks gleans the key lessons he learned and presents them in ways that are relevant and actionable for today’s leader. For readers seeking to identify their passion in life and to clarify their purpose, Defining Moments is an extraordinary guide that teaches through memorable experiences – the stories in the book reveal valuable lessons on finding and following a path to a more rewarding life.

Author profits from the sale of this book are being donated to charity.
