The biggest challenge for me in writing was that I didn’t want this to be the traditional business book. There’s plenty of those out there already. I’d like for this book to be one that you think about for a while after you’ve completed the last page. I hope that if you read RESET: What I Want You to Buy Is…STOP SELLING, you’ll be left with a message that resonates with you as well as ways of doing things that you’ll be able to put to practice for your business.

Our experience at the NACUBO 2013 Annual Meeting in Indianapolis was a refreshing change from years past. While the conference always draws the business officers from the country’s cream of the crop colleges and universities, this was the first time we felt there is a true trend of transformational thinking and ACTION taking place.
The overriding theme of the week was around capital investments into the higher education space. Leaders are finally realizing that the answer does NOT lie in either increased government bonds or increased student tuition. While institutions have realized in recent years the issue with leaving students with $100,000+ in debt, and not fully preparing them for the job market is a huge problem, during the 2013 conference we clearly heard leadership talking about specific creative solutions.
