The Different Drummer: Follow your own beat to find enlivening work and lead an extraordinary life.

Unable to accept that work was something to be endured rather than relished, Marcus spoke to hundreds of people about their engagement with their jobs & found that a rarified 1% of people managed to place themselves in roles where they could integrate their values, creativity, passion & a sense of contribution.
