In an unusual acknowledgment, the author, the founder of Kinko's, admits he's dyslexic and didn't write his book. What follows purports to be a guide to his professional success, but it seems more like a mishmash of personal anecdotes, recountings of illnesses, and stories from company picnics. Paul Michael injects himself into the narrative so well that he sounds as though he were telling his own life story. Using cues from the text, he varies his expression and pace to keep the interest level elevated. His clear speech and comfortable pace make every word easy to understand as he renders a disorganized businessman's autobiography into something more pleasing than he started with.
