Recognizing Richard Rabbit
“… a very intriguing and unique book … a fascinating way to approach ideas—like giving up what you “should” do for what you really WANT to do.”
Patrick Erwin, Job Blog, CareerBuilder.com
“This story inspires useful reflection and a practical rethinking of your own personal effectiveness in work and life.”
Jonathan Goodman, Social Median

Roger Lear, President, OrlandoJobs.com
“… a small book that tackles a big topic. Recognizing Richard Rabbit reflects Peter Weddle’s years of experience in the employment industry. The book also shares Weddle’s razor-sharp insight into how being true to yourself translates into career success.”
Paula Santonocito, AIRS
“Peter Weddle has done it again! He’s taken a complex subject and reduced it to logical points of thought that can lead to personal action. Recognizing Richard Rabbit motivates the reader to consider change …. It doesn’t tell the reader what to do; it enables creative problem-solving. And beside all that, it’s fun and charming.”
Carol Barber, Executive Vice President, Bernard Hodes Group
“In fables, the “learnings” make sense and are not scary. In real life, of course, “learnings” (most especially about ourselves) are scary and even more so when it comes to doing something that requires change…. if you are like me and are one of those who enjoyed Who Moved My Cheese?, you will want to check Recognizing Richard Rabbit.”
David Opton, Founder & CEO, ExecuNet
“… a quick, easy read …. But that’s not why you should buy a copy [of this book] and read it for yourself. What delights me most about Recognizing Richard Rabbit is the very unusual and effective way in which it delivers its content.”
Steven Rothberg, CEO, CollegeRecruiter.com
“I was captivated by the authors intention for this book which I came across in the preface: ‘Together, these inquiries transform each turn of the page into a double step forward in your vital and quintessentially human quest to be authentic.’
“That is a very ambitious and profound mission. And yet, as short as this book is, it delivers by asking us to consider all the right questions. In my experience, almost no attitude is so valuable as a sense of doubt. The questions one asks to a great degree take us here or there in life and help us to fail or succeed in everything.
“This little book, through the art of questioning, can help you find and stay on the unique path in life that was meant for you. I thoroughly enjoyed this fable …!”
Eric Shannon, CEO, LatPro
“The simple language and moral of this story make what is a complex topic—being true to yourself—very accessible.”
Christina Levere
