Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The New York Times number one best seller that can transform your life and career.

Co-founder and chairman of LinkedIn, Reid Hoffman, and author Ben Casnocha offer a revolutionary method to accelerate your life and career. The secret is to think like an entrepreneur—to run the 'start-up of you'.

Entrepreneurs are nimble. They invest in themselves. They build their networks. They take intelligent risks. They make uncertainty and volatility work to their advantage. These are the very same skills we all need to get ahead.

Hoffman and Casnocha show how you can create opportunities where others see dead-ends and when to take proactive risks where others may seek safety. They reveal how to maintain a competitive advantage so you can stand out from others. They explain how you can build your network. Above all, they share the insights and strategies you need to succeed in the most important venture of all—your own life.
