Michael J. Coles, the cofounder of the Great American Cookie Company and the former CEO of Caribou Coffee, did not follow a conventional path into business. He does not have an Ivy League pedigree or an MBA from a top-ten business school. He grew up poor, starting work at the age of thirteen. He had many false starts and painful defeats, but Coles has a habit of defying expectations. His life and career have been about turning obstacles into opportunities, tragedies into triumphs, and poverty into philanthropy.In Time to Get Tough, Coles explains how he started a $100-million company with only $8,000, overcame a near-fatal motorcycle accident, ran for the U.S. Congress, and set three transcontinental cycling world records. His story also offers a firsthand perspective on Georgias business, political, and philanthropic climate in the last quarter of the twentieth century and serves as an important case study for students and entrepreneurs interested in practical leadership and unconventional ways of approaching business.

"In Soaring, Lee Rhyant explores the struggles of his circumstances which he eventually overcame, climbing to the top of the corporate ladder at Lockheed Martin and Rolls Royce Aerospace, and offers the lessons he took away from his experiences in leadership and business. Born to a family of African American sharecroppers in post-war Georgia, Rhyant's story begins in the Jim Crow South. Forced to work at an early age, Rhyant eventually graduated from Bethune-Cookman University and Indiana University and climbed to a series of "first" executive positions at some of the nation's most respected companies. This book is more than Rhyant's struggles and successes. It is a story that begins and ends in Georgia. It is a story that illuminates the intersections of the southern economy and racial climate in the last few decades of the twentieth century. It is a story that offers pragmatic guidance to students and entrepreneurs of color on their own professional paths"--
