Unleashed Potential will help show you how to work on mastering certain easy to understand skills and principles that will propel you to success in life, at work or in anything you do with people.

It is important that you learn from the stories of others and incorporate their successes into yours as well. And remember, it isn't worth it if you're not having fun along the way!
In Unleashed Potential, Kelly Jones shares timeless principles for personal and professional success, drawn from his own life and the quiet wisdom of his dog, Baxter. With warmth and wit, Jones connects the dots between business sensibility and everyday values—loyalty, teamwork, focus, and gratitude—and shows how mastering these can help you lead better, work smarter, and live more fully. Part business guide, part memoir, and part life lesson from man’s best friend, Unleashed Potential will inspire you to find success that’s both meaningful and lasting—by becoming the kind of person others want to follow.
