Your Values-Based Legacy:Making a Difference at Every Age and Phase of Life explores how everyone—regardless of their career status or personal resources—can intentionally build a legacy that truly makes the world a better place. Although the word “legacy” today is most often associated with money and estate planning/inheritance, this book seeks to expand “legacy” beyond raw numbers to make the concept more self-reflective, spiritual, and intentional.

This book differentiates itself by challenging all readers to think about how they are making a difference right now—regardless of where they are in their lives. The messages, stories, and reflections in the book will resonate with a broad range of readers, whether they are still in college, just starting their careers, advancing into leadership, or considering their “second acts” after retirement.

Harry Kraemer, Professor of Management and Strategy at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management and former chairman and chief executive officer of a multibillion-dollar global healthcare company, provides a blueprint for making life more meaningful by showing that we do, indeed, matter within our families and among our friends, colleagues, neighbors, community members, and even society. In a world that seems more divided than ever, focusing on the commonality of legacy can help build bridges and create connections that reflect our values.

You don’t have to be a millionaire to leave a values-based legacy. Your Values-Based Legacy: Making a Difference at Every Age and Phase of Life is an essential read for individuals of all ages who want to ensure they leave behind a powerful resonance of their core values through their words, actions, and how they interact with the world at large in everything they do.
