Speaker, Author, and Entrepreneur Speaks to the Career-Challenged College Student in New Book

Bixby, Okla. (PRWEB) April 17, 2008 -- Out of the Blocks, a modern-day parable written by entrepreneur and business owner Sean Kouplen, has been called a "must-read" for soon-to-graduate college students by numerous professors and administrators.

Once a professor himself at OSU in Tulsa, and the school's youngest National University Alumni president, Kouplen was repeatedly approached by college seniors with no career direction. Thus he was inspired to create the story of Jamie Walker, a college student who learns 12 important life lessons in Out of the Blocks that will help students of all interests and abilities choose and succeed in the right career.

Out of the Blocks doesn't just advise students on how to make money or get ahead in the corporate world. It helps them make informed decisions that include their passions so they can be not only successful but also fulfilled.

For more information or to request a free review copy, members of the press can contact the author's marketing director Chuck Wardman at Sales@outoftheblocks.net or visit www.outoftheblocks.net. Out of the Blocks is available for sale online at Amazon.com, BookSurge.com, and through additional wholesale and retail channels worldwide.
