Rating: Summary: Learning skills at home that help at work and visa versa! Review: Before going into any of the good stuff that's in this book, I want you to know that I sincerely appreciate the fact that you've taken a minute to look up this information about my new book, Daddy@Work. The other thing I want you to know is something I've learned about being in the publishing business for 25 years. Many books are written to please reviewers or the friends and colleagues of the author. This is why so many books are so darn hard to get through. (Come on, let's admit it. We've started far more books than we've finished because the promise on the cover--written by someone in the marketing department--didn't deliver on the pages inside.)My "audience" in Daddy@Work is a real dad (maybe someone like you?). A man with lots of distractions in his life and not a whole lot of extra time for reading . . . especially books like this. So, I have filled Daddy@Work with storie and illustrations and practical, I-can-do-that kinds of things. My ultimate goal in this book is to be a friend to the reader, encourage him in his two very, very imporant jobs at home and work, and then give him some helpful advice. Letters and e-mails pour in to me (just last week, one poured in from Cleveland) from men . . . and their wives . . . thanking me for Daddy@Work. It's a fun book. A book that will help you with life as it really is. A book you'll probably finish. I'd love to hear from you. Robert Wolgemuth
Rating: Summary: The buisness of FatherHood Review: Daddy @ Work Is a detailed synopsis of life in my world. The sucess, the failure, and the trying. In the work force I have an incredible predilection to exceed expectations at any expense. This leaves little room for much else. My family life began to suffer. I saw this and wanted to make things different. I started to study the scripture to find a Biblical portrait of a "reaL" Father. I also searched for a book. Finding Daddy @ Work was an answered prayer. There is indelible insight pouring from each page. "Real" life answers, To "real" life questions. Simple to follow outlines, that will lead in a new direction. To honor God, your family, and your buisness sounds impossible, but it's not. There can be success. I challenge you to read this book, dive into scripture and you too can find the medium. This is the key to a happy and fulfilled life. Daddy @ Work will help you find it!
Rating: Summary: Excellent tool for Managers who are also Fathers Review: Daddy@work is an amazing book that is easy to read with strong spiritual ethics that can be used on a daily basis at work and at home. This book has pointed out areas of my life that need work and areas that I need to understand more. I recommend to all fathers and managers of companies. Also to executive mothers.
Rating: Summary: A very practical and insightful book on life as a dad. Review: I found this book to be entertaining and useful to me as a father and a businessman.
Rating: Summary: Wonderful and Practical Review: I got Daddy @ Work as a gift and loved it! I read the book in two evenings and in my hectic life that says something. His writing style is down to earth and practical to the point of telling you how to sit at a table to 'connect' over a dinner/lunch conversation. I will reread it again and again to let it soak in to my thick skull. I bought two other books from Robert Wolgemuth within a week of finishing Daddy @ Work (Just Daddy and Me & Pray with Me Daddy - both great as well). Daddy @ Work is a must read for any man who wants to make a difference in his world at work and at home! A+ Robert, I wish you lived in my town!
Rating: Summary: A good help book for work and life. Review: Yes this book left me with the feeling I had heard words of wisdom from an experienced father and businessman. The book is unique in that it offers methods for dealing with both Work and life. The author is gifted in his use of examples and is very organized in his construction. I only removed one star because there is little research beyond his life's experiences. I expect facts or more statistical examples, when I read a book. Still all in all this is a book filled with wise words. If heeded, I sure it will improve your life as it has mine.
