Reviews
"Forget everything you thought you knew about Charles Koch and read this book. Charles and Brian offer a clear path to success for anyone who wants to make a difference. An unrelenting picture of optimism that's a roadmap for solving our country's biggest problems." --Mark Andreessen, Co-Founder and General Partner, Andreessen Horowitz " Believe in People is a wise, thoughtful, and optimistic book. At its heart, it is a book about listening--to the quiet voice inside each of us that whispers truths about finding our highest calling and discovering our best selves. A timely and important read." --David Isay, Founder, StoryCorps "Charles Koch's vision for a better America and his call to action for a new bottom-up movement make Believe in People a compelling and provocative read." --Michael Lomax, President and CEO, UNCF " Believe in People is Charles Koch's most personal book, most substantive book, and best book--all wrapped up into one. Heartily recommend." --Tyler Cowen, Holbert L. Harris Chair in Economics and Chairman, Mercatus Center at George Mason University

Synopsis
A surprising take on how you can help tackle the really big problems in society-from one of America's most successful entrepreneurs. People are looking for a better way. Towering barriers are holding millions of people back, and the institutions that should help everyone rise are not doing the job. Crumbling communities. One-size fits all education. Businesses that rig the economy. Public policy that stifles opportunity and emboldens the extremes. As a result, this country is quickly heading toward a two-tiered society. Today's challenges call for nothing short of a paradigm shift - away from a top-down approach that sees people as problems to be managed, toward bottom-up solutions that empower everyone to realize their potential and foster a more inclusive society. Such a shift starts by asking: What would it mean to truly believe in people? Businessman and philanthropist Charles Koch has devoted his life to answering that question. Learn what he's discovered during his 60-year career to help you apply the principles of empowerment in your life, in your business, and in society. By learning from the social movements and applying the principles that have enabled social progress throughout history, Koch has achieved more than he dreamed possible - building one of the world's most successful companies and founding Stand Together, one of America's most innovative philanthropic communities. Stand Together CEO Brian Hooks and Koch show how the only way to solve the really big problems - from poverty and addiction to harmful business practices and destructive public policy - is for each and every one of us to find and take action in our unique role as part of the solution. Full of compelling examples of what works - including several first-person accounts from individuals whose lives have been transformed - Koch and Hooks' refreshing approach promotes partnership instead of partisanship and speaks to people from different perspectives and all walks of life. They show that no injustice is too tough to overcome if you share a deep belief in people, are willing to unite with anyone to do right, and work to empower others from the bottom up.

  • If we "Believe In People", be prepared to be surprised by their results.

    The book takes old information and applies it to a new application. Charles Koch uses historical information to illustrate how it can be used on modern problems.
