Review :
"If you want inspiration then you owe it to yourself to read Héctor Colón's life story. From humble beginnings to a champion boxer to the boarroom. Héctor weaves a wonderful story about life's challenges and rewards." --Howard Behar, Retired President of the Starbucks Coffee Company "Héctor Colón's book, My Journey from Boxing Ring to Boardroom: Five Essential Virtues for Life & Leadership, is an inspiring example of growing as a servant-leader. Colón's fascinating life story is framed by his analysis of how Magnanimity, Humility, Courage, Perseverance, and Temperance have proven so powerful to his development as a person, and in his understanding and practice of servant-leadership. This lively and heartfelt book is uplifting, and well worth reading." --Larry C. Spears, Senior Advisory Editor, The International Journal of Servant-Leadership "The Héctor Colón story is one that would capture anyone's heart. Whether a teacher or preacher, boxer or CEO, Héctor's story is an inspiration. Despite what would seem insurmountable odds, this is a captivating story of someone who had the grit, determination, and altruism to make a difference despite growing up in poverty, a broken family, and living through the challenges arising from prejudice. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to believe that anything is possible when one consistently accepts responsibility and cares about the greater good." --Dr. Mary Meehan, University president emerita and honorary alumna, former healthcare executive, and life fellow in the American College of Healthcare Executives "You will be inspired by how Héctor Colón has channeled his dedication, determination and discipline from the boxing ring to get to the boardroom." --Raúl Márquez, Showtime commentator, former Middleweight Champion and 1992 Olympian "I have known Héctor since he was nine years old and have witnessed him grow and develop into a man who lives every day with the virtues of magnanimity, humility, courage, perseverance and temperance. Héctor is a champion in and out of the ring. This memoir is charming yet inspiring; find out what it takes to be a champion in life." --Ricardo Diaz, Executive Director, United Community Center "Héctor was a great boxer and a good friend. He was always driven to succeed so it is no surprise that his hard work paid off. His story is one of perseverance and strength." --Montell Griffin, 1992 USA Olympic Boxing Team Bid, 1997 WBC World Light-heavyweight Champion "I was privileged to work with Héctor and witnessed a visionary leader who brought people together while always respecting the human dignity of all, no matter their background, status or opinions. In this book you will get a glimpse of how he puts his values and virtues in action to create a better society for others. This is a must read for individuals looking for true inspiration from a humble servant leader." ---Chris Abele, Philanthropist, Venture Capitalist, and former Milwaukee County Executive
