Review "Enablon and Me is a terrific story full of wisdom and great advice. Tom Barr describes a job change after being downsized and does so with an abundance of humor and wit. But this book is about much more than work—it is about embracing change, engaging with others, and trying to get the most out of each moment. Tom claims to be an old man, but his youth and enthusiasm come through loud and clear in this delightful book." -- James Lee, President, Onsight"If you like to read insightful business books that will have you alternating between mild chuckles and full out belly laughs, read this book. If your profession has you involved in international business, technical training, corporate training, consulting, or product advocacy, read this book a second time. You will have undoubtedly missed a subtle point or two as you were nodding, smiling, and laughing along with what you read the first time. And if you aspire to any of the aforementioned careers, read this book a third time to truly absorb its invaluable lessons." -- Martin Marks, Software Training Development and Delivery Specialist"A real-world story with no-frill tips from a successful business person.
