And so one day, desperate to land a key sale, he seeks advice from the enigmatic Pindar, a legendary consultant referred to simply as the Chairman. Pindar introduces Joe to a series of friends that share with Joe the Five Laws of Stratospheric Success, and teach him how to open himself to the power of giving.
