Sobre IBD

A jornada de Chris Gardner - de pai sem-teto a executivo milionário Chris Gardner é um vendedor que, em tempos difíceis, junto com o filho pequeno, luta bravamente contra a pobreza. A luta diária da classe trabalhadora e dos menos favorecidos está retratada na obra. Quando fez vinte anos, Chris Gardner tinha acabado de sair da Marinha e tinha planos de seguir carreira em Medicina. Considerado um prodígio em pesquisa científica, surpreendeu a todos, inclusive a si mesmo, quando mudou de idéia e escolheu uma carreira na área de finanças. Após encontrar uma posição inicial modesta em uma firma de prestígio, Gardner se viu envolvido em uma rede de circunstâncias que o levaram a viver nas ruas junto com o filho pequeno, que ainda engatinhava. Em vez de render-se ao desespero, pai e filho passaram quase um ano morando em abrigos, albergues, enfrentando filas para conseguir um prato de sopa e até mesmo dormindo em banheiros de estações de metrô, antes de, finalmente, ocorrer a transição do banheiro para a sala da diretoria. Hoje, Chris Gardner é o CEO da Gardner Rich & Company, milionária firma de corretagem com escritórios em Nova York, Chicago e San Francisco.
