À propos de cet audio

In this episode of Entrepreneur to Author, host Scott MacMillan speaks with Reverend Dr. Frank C. Spencer, president of the Board of Pensions of the Presbyterian Church and author of The Secrets of Success: How to Build a Great Career and Live a Happy Life.

Frank shares how his career—from real estate and nonprofit leadership to ordained ministry—inspired the stories and insights in his book. Drawing on years of sermon writing and mentoring, he found the process of translating life lessons into book form both natural and fulfilling, completing the manuscript in just a few months.

Frank also explains how he built the book around key themes like commitment, compassion, and curiosity, along with his "Three P’s" framework: product, profit, and process. Writing honestly about professional failures and personal milestones made the work deeply meaningful. Now he’s using the book to spark reflection and growth within his organization, and among youth as well as emerging leaders.
