Leaving Microsoft to Change the World: An Entrepreneur's Odyssey to Educate the World's Children
On August 29, 2006, our founder and CEO, John Wood, released a memoir entitled Leaving Microsoft to Change the World.
Leaving Microsoft tells the story of Room to Read's infancy, our early successes, and lays the groundwork for our long-term vision of world change. John vividly chronicles Room to Read's beginnings, from his life-altering decision to leave the corporate world, to his quest to create a non-profit with a strong business ethos, and continuing until the present day.
Publisher's Weekly described the book as, "an infectiously inspiring read ... the kind of book that business colleagues will discuss with their acquaintances, spouses and friends."
