The Power of Connection: Get Everything You Want
What’s the elephant in the room? What are we all pretending not to know? Over the course of countless coaching sessions with business leaders, top performing athletes and elite transitioning military, Joe Sweeney found that when people in all areas of life have a feeling of disconnection, they are unable to move forward. This book was written as a coaching guide to help people get better connected to themselves and others to find deeper meeting and purpose in life.
This book delves deeply into a three-part mantra of connecting deeper with ourselves, with others, and to a power greater than us. Joe explores many of his coaching theories and practices that have helped thousands of people go from where they are to where they want to go.
Joe Sweeney has spent more than forty years blending his love of business and passion for sports. He has owned, operated, and sold numerous companies, and has taken his crystalized knowledge from those experiences to create a world-class executive coaching, speaking, and training business.
Joe’s passion is studying human behavior. He has used the fields of sports, business, and military as his laboratory to better understand why certain people outperform others. He is especially devoted to helping and mentoring young athletes and executives to develop all aspects of their career, business, and life.
Joe is now an accomplished author, internationally known speaker, investor in private equity companies, professional board member, and a highly sought after executive coach.

I will read everything Joe Sweeney writes. He's a man in touch with those around him, and he understands what makes people tick. He eloquently writes about big ideas and provides practical tips to get more out of your time, money, and most importantly relationships.
I have known Joe for years, and his mentorship has helped me excel in politics (achieve the office of State Senator), the US Army (Lt Colonel), and in the private sector (President of the Metro Milwaukee Assoc of Commerce). Joe's methods have been of great assistance in focusing on what's essential in my life and by focusing on what's important I have been rewarded in every aspect of my life (faith, family & career).
