“Nothing teaches us valuable life lessons better than real-world stories shared by successful individuals―told with a focus not on what they have achieved but what they have overcome. I believe that what we learn from adversity is what shapes us and makes us better professionals and people, and eventually defines our legacy. In Code of Conduct, Scott Freidheim brilliantly underlines the importance of patience, perseverance and putting a priority on strong values.”

“In quantum physics, particles take all possible paths from here to there, the weight of a particular path being proportional to a term we physicists call the action. Scott Friedheim makes the case that our own personal weighting function―our code of conduct―is essential for a fulfilling and purposeful life. It is only when the path gets washed away that we see the power of those who have been stepping through life deliberately. Code of Conduct is a wild ride through Friedheim’s life that you won’t want to put down, but when you do, you’ll come away wiser to the power of purpose and ready to write your own code of conduct.”
