Goal-setting, communication, and risk-taking, Phillips writes, are just a few of the traits to be learned by studying Washington, Jefferson, and their colleagues.

With so many forces of change buffeting the business world today, a scary state of flux has replaced any sense of certainty, stability, and familiarity, delivering a wake-up call to make crucial changes happen, make them happen quickly, and make them stick.

Enchantment, as defined by bestselling business guru Guy Kawasaki, is not about manipulating people. It transforms situations and relationships.
