It’s Not The Score, It’s The Trip: One Man’s Journey To Building A Global Franchise by Brian O'Hara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is a memoir of the authors success and endeavors in his professional life. Specifically, he is a leader within the Insurance Industry, having started, built, and expanded his Company. Coming from a large family, Mr. O’Hara learns early that in order to succeed he has to work hard, be honest with himself and others and learn to listen. We also get to read about his love to Nancy Tofanelli, which contrasts nicely to the business aspect of his life.
His open candor in writing about his childhood and how it affected him much later in life and how he handled certain situations was refreshing. Also, the portrayal of both his misses and his success in his business strategies was interesting. Too often we only hear the positives, but not what went wrong and most importantly, how the author ended up fixing it. This book, was very well done, give us a huge insight into the industry and is worth every page.
