迈克尔•盖茨•吉尔生于康乃狄克州,为《纽约客》杂志知名作家布兰登•基尔(Brendan Gill)之子。耶鲁大学毕业后,进入华特汤普森广告公司工作二十年之久,并晋升为创意总监、副总裁,最后竟遭裁员解职。之后他创业不成,又陷入家庭、经济和健康的多重威胁,在六十几岁的年纪陷入人生谷底。在偶然的机会下,他获得了星巴克店员的工作,而得以进入这深具魅力的国际性企业,一探其运作奥秘与文化,而他也在这里重新学习人生的功课、感受温暖坚实的情谊,并且将这段戏剧化的遭遇写成本书,与读者分享。目前他居住在纽约,每天都走路到离家不远的星巴克咖啡店上班,而且目前还没有任何退休计划,要继续投入这个他认为一生中最精彩、最美好的工作。
A candid, moving and inspirational memoir about a high-flying business man who is forced to re-evaluate his life and values when he suddenly loses everything and goes to work in Starbucks. Michael Gill had it made. He was educated, wealthy and well-connected. He had a creative and lucrative advertising job, which he loved and which he was good at, and a model family and home life. Then he loses it all. He is fired by a young exec whom he had mentored. He has an extramarital affair that destroys his family and results in a newborn son. Then he is diagnosed with brain cancer. He has no insurance, no income. One day he wanders into Starbucks and by chance signs up for a job interview. His would-be boss is a young black woman who gives him a job, and sets about training him and mentoring him. What follows is an inspirational eye-opener as Gill experiences a whole new world compared to his former life -- with people from completely different ethnic and social backgrounds. 'How Starbucks Saved My Life' follows Gill's journey of discovery as gradually he is forced to question his ingrained assumptions, prejudices and habits.Gill emerges from his fall from grace with humility and gratitude. His new-found empathy teaches him how anyone who has lost their way, or made a mistake, can start again.
说是小说,又说是作者的经历,所以我觉得应该是自传性的励志书籍。 一个在美国最大广告公司干了20多年,身居副总裁、创意总监的耶鲁毕业生,某一天,他亲手提拔的曾经的下属,告诉他被解雇了。接着,他的人生堡垒渐次倒塌:创业不成事业破产、外遇私生子导致家庭崩溃、又陷入...
评分昨天看了本书叫《星巴克拯救了我的生命》。此书好比长篇软文,告诉我们星巴克怎么善待员工和顾客,怎么提供优质服务和咖啡,怎么倡导和坚持人人平等和反对种族歧视……总之,故事交代了星巴克在一个60多岁的老人潦倒无助之时像神一般挽救了他,让他获得重生。尽管被感...
评分所谓的共鸣吧, 没迈克年纪大,不如他那么成功过. 但是我却有着同样的现实, 敢恩每件小得,不去计较小失.能让人更开心一些. 共鸣就这样产生,休息的下午,读完这本书,感觉不错. 虽然我从来没去过星巴克.
评分地铁上读完。 以休息了近半年后重新走上工作岗位的心情读此书, 对作者“工作即尊严”这句话挺有感触, 不管成绩如何, 想说, I have done the best I can.
评分《星巴克是如何拯救我的人生的》无疑是一本定位颇受争议的书籍。它到底是真实的回忆录,还是裹着回忆录面具而实际在为商家做宣传?一些书评家将其视为长期以来广告业向图书业渗透的一个结果。然而不管怎样,这部以中年男人从事业和人生的低谷重新站起来为卖点的书籍,已经成功...
