HUG YOUR PEOPLE is more than a book to Jack; it is his personal mission to bring civility and compassion back to the way we all conduct our business and our lives. Jim Nantz of CBS Sports is among the early admirers, calling it “a book rich with wisdom. The Mitchell family secret for success should be read by everyone — it’s like Mike Krzyzewski or Tony Dungy opening up their playbooks for the public.” The new volume will join Mitchell’s first book in every successful businessperson’s library. Together they speak volumes!
