Advance Praise
“Everybody Paddles brings true, impactful, and inspiring accounts of successes and challenges that have fashioned our businesses and communities. These principles and conversations will inspire personal growth and triumphs toward greater unification.”—Dr. Tilokie Daepoo, Dean, Metropolitan College of New York
“Is there a need for another book on teamwork? Yes, when it has the building blocks to formulate a solid foundation. Continually and resoundingly the underlings of division and separation permeate families, communities, and organizations. Charles Archer’s principles and approaches is an invaluable tool in the discussion that cannot only help people and businesses in New York City but also reconnect the interrelatedness of teamwork internationally.”—Carlo Scissura, President and CEO, Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce
“Charles Archer reminds us that if your oar falls in, use your arms. If your arms tire, use your legs. If your legs give out, use your voice and encourage your team. But by all means, keep the boat moving!”—Stacy P. Dean, PhD, Partners in Learning
“Everybody Paddle speaks to the profound impact of people coming together. The contributions provided remind us to be receptive to all opportunities to join together as the outcome isn’t always predetermined. When we paddle together, the outcome is likely greater than the sum of its parts.”—Scott L. Barkin, PhD, Executive Director, Block Institute
“Working together—sharing the dream—living the dream daily.”—Kodwo Ababio, CEO, Cititech Solutions, Inc.
“Currently this country is experiencing discourse due to a lack of unity and empathy for each other. Everybody Paddles is an inspirational blueprint for what it takes to collectively move this country into a more harmonious and equally prosperous state of union. Rather picking a side, pick up the EP book, grab an oar, and paddle together for our country. Paddle for our children!"—Jamila Sams, Education and Youth Development Consultant, GoToMsSams
