BOOK CLUB
Books About Business
The Women In Bio book club, Books about Business, launched in Baltimore on July 16.
A similar Washington-based group will be starting soon. You are invited to participate!
"Books about Business" supports the mission of Women In Bio, an organization of professionals
committed to fostering and encouraging entrepreneurship and career development of women active
in the life science industry. The first book was Never Eat Alone, by Keith Ferrazzi, about the
importance of relationship building in achieving success.
"Widely recognized as a thought-leader among his peers, Ferrazzi is a frequent contributor to
CNN and CNBC. He has authored numerous articles for leading business and consumer publications,
including Forbes, Inc, the Wall Street Journal, the Harvard Business Review, and Reader's Digest.
An early leader in the quality movement, Ferrazzi was the youngest examiner of the Malcolm
Baldrige National Quality Award. He has been named a "Global Leader of Tomorrow" by the World
Economic Forum, one of the top 40 Under business leaders by Crain's Business, one of the most
distinguished young Californians by the Jaycees, and one of the most creative Americans in
Richard Wurman's Who's Really Who. Ferrazzi's extraordinary rise to prominence, which includes a
stint as the youngest Chief Marketing Officer in the Fortune 500, has even inspired a Stanford
Business School case study."
