Content Summary:
Harvard Business School professor and management thought leader Clayton Christensen, author of "The Innovator's Dilemma," was named one of the "50 most influential contemporary thinkers." In the spring of 2010, Christensen was diagnosed with lymphoma. Enduring chemotherapy, battling the disease, and reflecting repeatedly on whether his life had meaning, he realized that "God measures my life not by money, but by how many people I can help, how I can become a better person." He delivered a profoundly influential speech to Harvard Business School graduates: How do you measure your life? This speech provokes deep reflection. In this book, Professor Christensen shares his aspirations to become an editor at The Wall Street Journal, being fired from the company he founded, discovering a passion for teaching, raising children, and confronting illness, among other life experiences.
