I've read a lot of canned and well rehearsed devotionals by preachers and was truly grateful to see someone put this together for professionals who live in a different world. When does the next one come out? Highly recommended.

Being a chaplain in a corporate setting I am always searching for good devotional materials to start our meetings. "Devotional Ventures" is a good, solid, average, collection of devotions written by persons in the corporate world. Good but not great.
