What is it about the business world that seems to resist love? That’s what Steve Farber found himself asking as he took his career from a youthful passion for music to trading commodity futures, and eventually to running his own leadership development company. Whether you’re an entrepreneur or an employee, the best business opportunities may come as the result of letting love guide your choices, as Steve points out in his new book, “Love is Just Damn Good Business.” In this Hack the Process interview, Steve will tell us how he reinvented his career as he discovered new passions, why he believes mentorship is more than just a pat on the back and a free meal, and what tradeoffs he considered when he decided to work with a publisher instead of self-publishing.
