Review by Heidi Hope

October 15, 2025 (San Diego) -- Linchpin focuses on the theme of changing the world for the better and making a difference in the workplace by embracing one’s individuality, artistry and uniqueness in visions and values, instead of simply following instructions and never getting to contribute creativity into any task. This New York Times bestselling book captures my attention through the image of a big hand wrapped in a tight fist holding on to the lightning bolt with flashes around it. In my opinion, this image represents the idea of holding on to your belief as you make a difference in this world through your own artistry and vision.
