The book combines in an inspiring way the values and experiences of ancient religious traditions with the challenges of today's world. No surprise that a natural conclusion is: a bit more of the ¨good old values¨ would not be bad for the future world of business and finance.

Thomas Zwiefel is what I would call an Edgewalker. He is a global citizen who has the ability to walk between many worlds in a way that makes a profound difference to all he touches. This book is an example of an Edgewalker book in the way that it bridges ancient wisdom and modern dilemmas. The ancient wisdom of the Ten Commandments has survived because it works for humanity. The Rabbi and the CEO is a book that shows us in very specific ways how to live a life in the corporate world that honors the deepest spiritual values we hold. While based on Judaic tradition, the guidance of this book is valuable for anyone from any faith.

We need more leaders to read this book and to take this message to heart. The world of business is transforming because it must, for all our sakes. The Rabbi and the CEO shows us how to take the steps that will transform our organizations so that our organizations can make a positive difference for the world.

This is a wonderful tool for all the people who want to apply leadership in their businesses and lives. The author brings the basic commands that a Rabbi follows and how they are really basic commands to lead a company too in a fun and truthful way. Enjoyed very much reading it, definitely a 5* book.

This is an excellent contribution to the current debate regarding leadership in the modern world. Leaders would do well to take note of the relevance of references to the "ten commandments" as they are as real now as they were thousands of years ago! Zweifel & Raskin point out many of the reasons we are in such a crisis in the business world. The lack of focus on leasdership values, particularly in the US, is at the center of the problem! Well done to them for writing this excellent book which I would recommend to everyone interested in understanding what makes a great leader.

A book that could replace all others on leadership!

An uplifting and encouraging book that will show you exactly how to build true happiness, pick this book up today! Raskin & Zweifel knock it out of the park and your finances could be doing the same very soon.

It's not often that one thinks of the 10 Commandments while at the office, conducting the daily business of making money. The Rabbi & the CEO brings the 10 Commandments to life for the contemporary business world, bringing ethics to the work place while guiding both employers and employees with practical exercises included in each chapter.

This is a layman's book, geared toward business people, with plenty of examples of what to do and what not to do, taken from the experiences of real life corporate giants.

The Rabbi & The CEO is a must read for any business person who wants long-term success.

I have been buying leadership and coaching books prior to airline flights for years now. The CEO and Rabbi pulls me from chapter-to-chapter, its the right mix of theory and practice. Helps make 'tough' decisions.

I JUST RECEIVED MY COPY RECENTLY.FROM WHAT I'VE READ SO FAR I AM IMPRESSED WITH THE WAY ZWEIFEL INCORPORATES TORAH WISDOM COUPLED WITH RABBINIC KNOWLEDGE FROM RABBI RASKIN INTO DEALING WITH THE CORPORATE BUSINESS ENVIORMENT. A MUST FOR ANYONE OF ANY FAITH.
