NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Jan 8, 2015) - C-Suite Book Club announced today that Arianna Huffington, author of Thrive: The Third Metric to Redefining Success and Creating a Life of Well-Being, Wisdom and Wonder has been selected as January's premier author. Huffington argues that society's relentless pursuit of the two traditional metrics of success -- money and power -- has led to an epidemic of burnout and stress-related illnesses, and an erosion in the quality of our relationships, family life, and, ironically, our careers.
Huffington likens our drive for money and power to two legs of a three-legged stool. They may hold us up temporarily, but sooner or later we're going to topple over. She affirms we need a third leg -- a third metric for defining success -- to truly thrive. That third metric, she writes in Thrive, includes our well-being, our ability to draw on our intuition and inner wisdom, our sense of wonder, and our capacity for compassion and giving. She also talks candidly about her own challenges with managing time and prioritizing the demands of a career and raising two daughters -- of juggling business deadlines and family crises, and how her "aha moment" came as a result of a health scare.
Thrive will be available in paperback starting in March 2015.
C-Suite Book Club will also feature other best-selling business authors this month, including Sylvie di Giusto, author of The Image of Leadership, Dov Baron, author of Fiercely Loyal, Allison Graham, author of From Business Cards to Business Relationships, David Newman, author of Do It! Marketing and Dave Potttruck, author of Stacking the Deck.
"We are starting the New Year with a bang at C-Suite Book Club! Having someone of the stature and caliber of Arianna Huffington as our premier author for January is a great thing for us," said Jeffrey Hayzlett, founder of C-Suite Book Club and chairman of C-Suite Network. "Business authors like Sylvie, Dov, Allison, David, and Dave bring an unparalleled wealth of knowledge to the table and I look forward to having our audience benefit from their expertise."
