5.0 out of 5 stars Passion and Positivity Improve Performance, June 6, 2006

By	Albert Marcus (Nashville, TN) - See all my reviews

This book will motivate you to take action.

Even if you're happy with your career, you will benefit from the hundreds (literally) of great ideas in this book. David V. Lorenzo has assembled some great advice and wrapped it in a continuous improvement model.

Although the book contains several concepts that will not be foreign to business book diehards, Lorenzo applies them in unique ways. His focus is firmly on individual career success with an entrepreneurial twist.

Even with the discount this book is a little on the pricy side but I promise you it is worth every penny. The inspiration you derive from the author's ideas and examples will return your investment in spades.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ignite Your Career - Employee or Entrepreneur, June 4, 2006

This is a playbook for mapping out your present and future. Whether you're in a cubicle or a cab, the front office or a home office, David Lorenzo's Career Intensity will light a fire.

If you're an employee, this book will give you ideas on how to own your career as if you owned the business - and how to profit from that attitude. If you're an entrepreneur, this book will give you insight on how to master the random encounters at your favorite coffee shop and generate buzz for your business.

With a mix of Zig Ziglar's love for life and Tom Peter's lust for life, I encourage everyone to read this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book for Entrepreneurs, June 4, 2006

By	Jeff G (San Diego) - See all my reviews

If you are thinking about starting your own business, I highly recommend this book.

Career Intensity is a motivational how-to guide to taking control of your career. While the author is clearly partial to entrepreneurship, I agree that starting a business is the best way to control your own destiny.

I found David Lorenzo's idea of building a personal brand to be particularly fascinating. It is a concept that recent graduates and seasoned professionals should both take seriously.

Career Intensity offers many useful tips and tactics to help you build a successful career.
