Critical Praise
"The Mormon Way of Doing Business is an impressive eye-opener for any businessperson. The LDS church is in stark contrast to the elements of the business world. Each person highlighted in this book provides insights into upholding their beliefs and surviving in corporate America. Commonalities include daily prayer, abstaining from alcohol and tobacco, observing the holiness of the Sabbath, faithfully serving in church callings (for which they are not compensated), and making specific time for their family. This book is an interesting take on a different way to live your life and do business - information that is invaluable for anyone looking to improve the value of their work and their family."

"If you work your way through the first eleven chapters and aren't immediately impelled to run off and start a new business or begin scouting commercial investment property before finishing the balance of the book you'll find a different sort of story in the last few chapters. September 11, 2001 was a security crisis for the country and a tragedy on a personal level for tens of thousands, but if you were a CEO with a few hundred employees near ground zero, it was also a particularly tough day at the office. Then another, and another, and another, for weeks on end. I found the hour-by-hour account of how these LDS CEOs led their companies and employees through the initial chaotic day and those that followed to be be absorbing."

"In his final chapter, the author brings the feeling of the book, for me, back to the beginning, the feeling of uplift I felt reading the Author's Note."

"Latter-day Saints, Mormons, tend to be held to higher standards by the general public. Each of the executives featured in Benedict's book presents a shining example of success in family life, religious devotion and in business."

"As rich as it is inspiring, this book draws back the curtain on one of the world's most misunderstood religions to reveal, through the eyes of a stunning collection of CEOs, a bedrock set of principles as applicable in life
as they are in business. A triumph of the highest order, THE MORMON WAY OF DOING BUSINESS is destined for the M.B.A. Hall of Fame."

"I have watched these guys from close up, and their stories have inspired me to be a better businessman, husband, and father."
-Glenn Beck, author and radio/television host
"You don't have to be a Mormon, or even in business, to appreciate the lessons in these pages. This book is rich with strategies for working, living, and loving better than we do."
