Reviews
"In a thought-provoking manner, Skip Vaccarello provides a collection of amazing stories of leaders who have found God in Silicon Valley... one of the most influential but anti-God places on Earth. Pat Gelsinger, Intel CEO Watching Skip do his work is viewing Silicon Valley culture to the core. Have a conviction, take a stand, gather facts, obtain feedback, and then build, build, build. Writing is how Skip builds. His output is called Finding God in Silicon Valley, but his life is about finding people in Silicon Valley who have faith as a key element of their life. In Finding God in Silicon Valley, you will meet some great folks of faith. Kevin Compton, Founder, Radar Partners, a venture capital firm This book will move you and allow you to see God making incredible plays in Silicon Valley through His grace! Ronnie Lott, former All-Pro SF 49er Genuine integrity is the seamless integration of faith, family, and profession into a God-honoring life message. Skip Vaccarello gives us amazing life stories from kings of high-tech for whom God was the ""secret sauce"" leading them to true success in the midst of high-flying tech booms and, in some cases, from the depths of pain. This is a must read for business leaders and beyond-soak it in, learn, and be inspired! Bob Dees, Major General, U.S. Army, Retired These stories breathe humanity, wisdom, ethics, and even joy into a technological age in search of truth. A treasure of insight into what matters, and why. Kelly Monroe Kullberg, Finding God at Harvard, The Veritas Forum"
