Jim Collins with Kelly Corrigan

Jim Collins’ books, including the international bestselling Good to Great, have sold more than 11 million copies and study how people navigate the big questions of leadership and life.

Questions we all wrestle with include: How do we find our way in the world? How do we make it past cliffs, significant events that radically change a life? In What to Make of a Life: Cliffs, Fog, Fire and the Self-Knowledge Imperative, Collins offers transformative lessons based on a decade of analyzing these questions and the moments when life flips from clarity to confusion.

He follows various lives side-by-side and analyzes the divergent paths taken at cliffs. Two rock musicians confronting a future without the group that brought them success. Two public figures tainted by scandal deciding how to rebuild their lives. What emerges is a surprising, deeply researched, and uplifting framework for understanding how individual lives can be built, sustained, and constantly renewed.

Collins will be in conversation with Kelly Corrigan, the author of four New York Times bestselling memoirs about family life as well as two children’s books. She hosts the podcast, “Kelly Corrigan Wonders,” and “Tell Me More” on PBS.
