The Fred Factor by Mark Sanborn (2004, Hardcover)

Great little book that serves to inspire those Freds who don't know who they are and pat the inspiring Freds on the back.

This book is incredible. It is life changing. Why? The answer is simple...God's love changes even the hardest of hearts. Author Mark Sanborn tells the story of a postal carrier named Fred who impacted his life in a way he never expected from a postal carrier. Fred is a compassionate and joyful man with a supreme goal in mind: be the best postal carrier he can be, but not just that, to be the best person he can be too. Mark's story continues with other "Fred Sightings" and how they've impacted his own life.

If you're looking for a great chance to see what a difference a simple act of kindness can make, then this is the book for you. Upon reading this book, I was able to see how even the little things i do in life can affect anyone. This is definitely a book for anyone, especially the businessperson, manager, and employee. i hope you enjoy it just as much as i have!

The Fred Factor written by motivational speaker Mark Sanborn is the story of Fred a mail carrier who always has a smile on his face and goes the extra mile while doing what many may think is a mundane job. But Fred is more than happy to be a mail carrier and brings a lot of caring and upliftment to those he serves. I think the story of Fred is nice but it doesn't really help people who really do hate their jobs at least in my opinion. I think Fred would be happy no matter what he did because he is a happy person. What Sanborn should have wrote about was how to help people who are stuck in the wrong occupation. Not a bad book, just not what I was looking for at the time.

It's on my "to read" list for my students in the Dave Ramsey Financial Peace University that I teach.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It will definitely tell you how to improve your outlook on what you do and why you do it. I recommend this book to everyone that wants to improve their outlook on their job, relationships and life.

Have not yet had an opportunity to read this but it came VERY highly recommended. I am a retired postal employee so it will be a good one!

I am a mail carrier and I wanted to find out some ideas to be even better at my job. I bought copies for some of my co workers. It helped me find ways to feel useful and happier in my work.

Very reliable and nice to do business with. Prompt responses and fasting shipping. A++++++++++++++++++ in customer service.

This book should be required rading for everyone in business! He really hits home with what it means to go the extra mile for others. The world would be so much nicer and happier if everyone followed these principles - including me! I loved the book, and I'm reading it over and over to get those ideas ingrained in my head. You won't be disappointed.
