Jackson’s tone goes from matter-of-fact as he describes the sorry status quo of clients and companies, to encouraging, motivational, even inspirational as he poses his success-targeted solutions. His use of metaphors to describe types of people and behaviors is notable, sometimes amusing and makes his ideas easy to remember. The quizzes, lists and self-tests pull the reader in from being a bystander to a participant.
There’s something in this book for every business type from the go-fer on the sales floor to the CEO. Though it speaks mainly to business situations, the principles are transferable to personal life as well. From the wise sayings of famous people that follow the title of each chapter to the practical advice offered cover-to-cover by Jackson, there’s lots of valuable take-away for everyone. If you want to learn how to steer the course of your life as opposed to letting the waves of circumstance, past experience, and emotion determine your destination, Moss A. Jackson’s Navigating For Success is for you.

"Jackson’s training as a clinical and organizational psychologist along with his 30 years’ experience as a psychologist and business consultant gives the book authority. The way he illustrates his points with stories from his practice makes the book interesting."
