Long Island, NY - Ray Keating is the author of the recently published "'Chuck' vs. the Business World: Business Tips on TV."
Keating said, "The series end of 'Chuck' is bittersweet not simply because I'm such a fan, but after writing a book on the business lessons from this television show, it feels personal. 'Chuck' will be missed on TV, but I hope this book continues to show additional value from this wonderful show."
In this fun and insightful book, Keating illustrates that TV spies and nerds can provide insights and guidelines on balancing work and personal life, managing workers, customer relations, leadership, trust, job interviews, technology, hiring and firing people, and career goals.
Larry Kudlow, host of CNBC's "The Kudlow Report," said, "Ray Keating has taken the very funny television series 'Chuck,' and derived some valuable lessons and insights for your career and business."
Barbara Weltman said on her "Build Your Business" radio show: "There are so many good lessons here... It's a really easy read. It's not a typical academic book where you have to force yourself to go through it. This is a quick and enjoyable read."
