How did he beat the odds in one of the toughest trades around? In this landmark book, Danny shares the lessons he learned developing the dynamic philosophy he calls Enlightened Hospitality. The tenets of that philosophy, which emphasize strong in-house relationships as well as customer satisfaction, are applicable to anyone who works in any business. Whether you are a manager, an executive, or a waiter, Danny’s story and philosophy will help you become more effective and productive, while deepening your understanding and appreciation of a job well done.

All ideas and philosophies are taken from other leaders and books. Just reworded to take credit. He has been funded by a wealthy family in Chicago. His businesses wouldn’t be in business if he wasn’t consistently bailed out by that family.
