Open Secrets of Success: The G

"This is a phenomenal story of Gary Tharaldson’s incredible accomplishment. Starting with nothing, he built over 400 hotels by himself, no partners—more than any single individual worldwide. What an inspiration to young people across the country!” -- Rudy Ruettiger, motivational speaker and subject of the 1993 film “Rudy,” ranked among the top inspirational movies by the American Film Institute. "Gary is so down-to-earth, he’s actually subterranean. I was one of the fortunate ones because Gary shared everything with us: his building costs and operating numbers, which were tops in the industry, and how he produced them.” -- Bruce White, Chairman, Founder and CEO of White Lodging
