The Accidental Executive

Lessons on Business, Faith, and Calling from the Life of Joseph

About this book

Look beyond Joseph's coat of many colors and discover that he holds surprising insights for today's workplace! Examining Joseph's experiences as a slave, a prisoner, and the CEO of a food company in Egypt, Erisman illustrates how the life of this biblical patriarch can teach us lessons for use in modern business, government, and education.
