Happy New Year and thanks again for your interest in my work over the years. I wanted to let you know about a new project that I hope will be of benefit to your work and well-being. My overall aim is to help you start a bigger conversation about contribution in 2020.

Part I of this project is an exclusive collaboration with Amazon Original Stories. Different from a traditional business book, I wrote this deeply personal story as an introduction to what I have learned about living a life of contribution to others. This quick read, It’s Not About You: A Brief Guide to a Meaningful Life is available today and is free for all Prime members.

Part II of this project is a new business book, Life’s Great Question: Discover How You Contribute to the World, which will be available worldwide on February 4, 2020. This application-oriented book includes a code to the new companion website, Contribify, where readers build a personalized portfolio about how they best contribute to a team, organization, or community. My hope is this activity becomes a regular supplement, or even displaces, the impersonal and lifeless resume.

I will be sharing more in upcoming months but wanted to give you a quick preview and am eager to hear your thoughts.

Happy New Year!

Tom
