some in wheel chairs to visually impaired persons who build their businesses
with zest and energy. It looks at CEOs who hire youth with disability and
make products for this market, because it makes business sense. And it
celebrates those who have converted disability in their personal lives to an
opportunity to transform other vulnerable lives.

to help readers develop their own style of wise leadership.
