"When you look into your child's eyes you look into one of the most powerful and bright mirrors of your own strengths and foibles available. Quinn's Letters tells the story of a long hard look into that mirror as part of a process he used to help his son through a period of adversity. Quinn successfully translates his expertise as a professional organizational change agent into a win in the most challenging of all change environments-loving and helping your child in distress. The book educates, instructs, nudges, previews and provides very impactful personal examples and experiences that illuminate the journey of nurturing and growing your children, yourself, and other individuals whose leadership development you have a stake in. As a father, a son, and a professional in the management and leadership development arena, Letters...is one of the most moving, enlightening and heartening books I've read in a while." --Michael McGrath, Vice President, Executive Planning and Development, Charles Schwab
"Have you ever lost your way? Do you know someone who has lost their way? If you are a parent, son, daughter, spouse, grandparent, teacher, or friend then at some point in your life you, too, may have questioned your path. Robert and Garrett Quinn have written a wonderfully poignant account of their journey together as a father attempts to connect with his son to help him to find his way. The Quinns' journey is a deeply moving and personal account of personal transformation and profound contact. In the process of reaching out to his son, Quinn's deeply autobiographical letters contain a wealth of ideas for helping you, the reader, find and live your best self." --Stuart A. Youngblood, Professor of Management, Neeley School of Business, Texas Christian University, Fort Worth

In the traditions of Covey and Fitz, Quinn puts timeless wisdom into a timely container of loving letters to his college freshman son.
