Howard Roark, Hank Rearden, Francisco d’Anconia—Ayn Rand’s heroes inspire the zealous pursuit of an outstanding and rewarding career.
Yet, it can feel as if the gap between the real and the ideal is unbridgeable. How do you take the abstract principles embodied by Rand’s heroes and apply them to the concrete reality of your own career? How can you use Objectivism to achieve the success you desire?
Answering such questions is the whole purpose of “Objectivism, Work, and Business,” a course designed to help you apply the timeless principles of Rand’s life-serving philosophy to navigate the dynamic landscape of your working life.
Wherever you are in your career, this course offers unmatched value. You’ll mine Rand’s philosophy for its powerful life and career guidance. You’ll unpack its lessons with the help of Tal Tsfany, president and CEO of ARI, and Don Watkins, bestselling author and ARI’s vice president of fundraising and marketing. Through guest lectures, you’ll see how top-notch businessmen, intellectuals, and creatives have leveraged Objectivism to make important career decisions—and how doing so has empowered them to build lucrative companies and fulfilling lives.
Are you ready to elevate your perspective and supercharge your career? Whether you’re struggling with an important decision or just want rocket fuel for the journey you’re already on, this course will help.
