Peaks and Valleys: Making Good and Bad Times Work for You – at Work and in Life
In the book Peaks and Valleys, Spencer Johnson outlines powerful new ways people can make better choices at work and in life so they can:

· Get out of a valley sooner
· Stay on a peak longer
· Have more peaks and fewer valleys.

The book tells the story of a young man who lives in the valley until, in search of answers to life’s dilemmas, he scales a nearby peak where he encounters an old man who reveals a unique way of looking at and doing things, that change his work and his life forever. He learns how peaks and valleys are connected: „The errors you make in today’s good times create tomorrow’s bad times – and the wise things you do in today’s bad times create tomorrow’s good times.“

The Peaks and Valleys presentation is delivered by James Mapes or Gary Bradt – Spencer Johnson’s two outstanding associate speakers. It takes its audience on a journey of discovery where people gain the inspiration, confidence and tools to deal with today’s ups and downs - no matter what the circumstances. They leave this program knowing exactly what to do and how to do it.

NOTE: The Peaks and Valleys speech can be presented by Gary Bradt or James Mapes in-person or via a web event.


About Spencer Johnson's Peaks and Valleys

In turbulent times one book usually emerges with the power to transform millions of lives. In 1982, The One Minute Manager provided a popular prescription for gaining more success with less stress – selling over 15 million copies. In 1998, Who Moved My Cheese became one of the biggest and most influential bestsellers at a time when change began to accelerate at an unprecedented rate – selling over 27 million copies. Now it’s happening again. In 2009, just when many feel the need is the greatest, the author of those two mega-bestsellers, Spencer Johnson, has returned with a remarkably timely and powerful tale: Peaks and Valleys: Making Good and Bad Times Work for You – At Work and In Life.

Dr. Johnson has become less accessible for speaking, but his outstanding speaking associates, James Mapes and Gary Bradt, who work closely with Dr. Johnson, are now available to help people and organizations discover how to use the simple yet powerful principles in Peaks and Valleys. They each deliver the message and bring the principles of the book to life using humor and anecdotes, and providing important takeaways. This talk gives people the inspiration, confidence and tools to get the most out of their work and life; and shows them how to get out of any valley sooner; stay on their peak longer; and to eventually have more peaks and fewer valleys.

BONUS OFFER: Each audience member will receive two complimentary hardcover copies of the new bestseller Peaks and Valleys, one to read and the other to share with someone important to them.
