Robert Rasmussen's Better Places explores the benefits of embracing compassionate and wholesome values in a time plagued by culture wars and individualism. The book is filled with tools and lessons that shine a light on a diverse range of positive topics, including empathy, healthy relationships, evolutionary culture, humanistic psychology, and nonviolence. Robert's exposure to another culture and way of life in Norway led him to recognize the importance of togetherness and how the country contrasted with the US. He took what he learned from Norway and incorporated it into his business and the government technology industry. Robert's humane business choices exemplify the benefit of paying attention to our well-being as opposed to focusing solely on profit. Read Better Places to discover all his great gems on business, politics, human relationships, and becoming an agent of positive change.
Readers will find Robert Rasmussen's intelligent blend of stories, thoughts, and tips engaging and easy to learn from. His story about his childhood reveals that he faced several daunting challenges. It is quite inspiring that he still ended up becoming a successful entrepreneur who created jobs for multiple people despite struggling to find food and experiencing homelessness. As he recalls every stage of his life, Robert shares the valuable insights he gained from them. As someone who has always wondered if businesses can succeed by choosing healthy values as opposed to just seeking money, Better Places has assured me that a company can focus on integration goals and still be profitable. Robert's deeply profound and candid book contains messages that will revolutionize the business world and lead us to choose communal, compassionate values in our businesses and other important structures of society. This timely paradigm shifter is a must-read for all!
