Summary
"It's Monday morning and George walks out the front door to his car and a flat tire. But this is the least of his problems. His home life is in shambles and his team at work is in disarray. With a big new product launch coming up in 2 weeks for the NRG-2000 he has to find a way to get it together or risk losing his marriage and job. Forced to take the bus to work, George meets a unique kind of bus driver and an interesting set of characters (passengers) that over the course of 2 weeks share the 10 rules for the ride of his life...and attempt to help him turn around his work and team and save his job and marriage from an almost inevitable destruction."
In the mode of other best-selling business fables, The Energy Bus takes listeners on an enlightening and inspiring ride that reveals 10 secrets for approaching life and work with the kind of positive, forward thinking that leads to true accomplishment - at work and at home. Everyone faces challenges. And every person, organization, company, and team will have to overcome negativity and adversity to define themselves and create their success.
No one goes through life untested, and the answer to these tests is positive energy - the kind of positive energy consisting of vision, trust, optimism, enthusiasm, purpose, and spirit that defines great leaders and their teams. Drawing upon his experience and work with thousands of leaders, sales professionals, teams, nonprofit organizations, schools, and athletes, Gordon infuses this engaging story with keen insights, actionable strategies, and a big dose of positive, infectious energy.
For managers and team leaders or anyone looking to turn negative energy into positive achievement, The Energy Bus provides a powerful road map to overcome common life and work obstacles and bring out the best in yourself and your team. When you get on the energy bus you'll enjoy the ride of your life!

This is very basic.
Not trying to be harsh, but 1/3 of the way through I had to check to make sure it wasn’t a children’s book. The content is so so basic. Absolutely no nuance whatsoever, watch a 10min video on being positive instead. I was interested by the word ‘energy’, but the book isn’t about having more energy, it’s about positive. Lame.

Very bad storytelling performance
This is the worst recording. The person who reads the book is performing very bad.

How life is full of coincidences
The story was highly enjoyable, as it was easy to understand. Everyone can relate to George and the daily challenges we all encounter. It is definitely worth listening to!
The only factor that resulted in a lack of satisfaction was the book's presenter; it took some time for me to become accustomed to him.

Great Story
A really interesting tale about reacquainting yourself with positivity, and your effect as a person on those around you and those in your employ. A great basis for improvement, self reflection and change.
