Rating:  Summary: Business Sense; Life Sense Review: No matter where you are in business, top, near bottom, or any place in between, Ben's book is full of tips. It is even full of good stories for those not active in business but just trying to add meaning to life. Random Thoughts is an invitation to what makes this "real" CEO tick everywhere from a young kid on the farm daydreaming to the head of several fundraising companies and sought after speaker. Ben teaches "how-to" in each chapter and then asks you to think, why? All the while, he makes you smile.

Fortunately in neither time was he hit by the "Big Stubborn Cough (Chapter 10)" What a master storyteller. You are going to enjoy this one a lot. Michael Denning President Denning Investments, Inc. Scottsdale, AZ

Rating:  Summary: You Will Enjoy Review: Some people have the ability to look back on their career and say, "How I wish I had done this part differently.' Ben is one of those unique people who looks back and says, 'What was the punch-line?' You will enjoy and learn from the "punch lines" of his life. A good read. Jack Swindle Senior Vice-President Texas Instruments Dallas, TX
Rating:  Summary: Learning along the way Review: Sometimes during the busy week it is just enjoyable to sit down with a good book and enjoy a good laugh. Fortunately for each of us, Ben has provided such a book. And on top of that, I learned a few things about management along the way. Nice going, Ben. Buck Buchannan Corporate Vice President EDS Troy, MI
Rating:  Summary: Just Plain Fun Review: The only thing more fun than hearing Ben speak is to read his books. I have waited a long time for "Thoughts" and it was well worth the wait. You will enjoy this one very much. Bill Duncan President Chiron Resources, Inc. Aurora, CO
Rating:  Summary: Focus Review: This book helped me focus on those areas of business where I find my most satisfaction. Once I had discovered that area I was then led through the process of delegation to a point where I could feel free to "let go." As I have done that I have found my company continues to do well, my associates have risen to the tasks assigned and now my company seems to have a future either with or without me. I think I got value for my money in this book. My associates know I did.
Rating:  Summary: Fantastic! Review: We waited for this one for a long time and Ben has not disappointed us. A must read! Don Wass, Ph.D. President and CEO The William Oncken Company of Texas, Inc. Richardson, TX
Rating:  Summary: Ben Gill, CEO (Chief Education Officer) Review: What a wonderful book. I feel like I've just completed a course in CEO management, but with no tests and plenty of laughs. If more CEO's as well as others in management heeded Ben's advise, the workers they supervise would probably be happier in their work. A must read for those who want to succeed in their career.
