How does a student become a standout in a sea of peers with similar qualifications? What traits contribute to a young person’s success? In the 2014 Living Now Book Award winning teen leadership book, Ingredients of Young Outliers: Achieving Your Most Amazing Future, author John Shufeldt explores the traits that colleges and employers look for in their applicants, identified over nearly three decades of his professional career.

Dr. John Shufeldt, MD, JD, MBA, FACEP, spent 29 years as a student, from elementary school through three graduate degrees. But although he went on to enjoy unusual success in all of his professional endeavors, his life as a young student was rarely easy. His middle school and high school years were marked with barely passing grades, and many seasons warming benches in sports. With a heavy measure of perseverance, determination, and many of the leadership qualities discussed in live fully ingredients of outliers quotethis book, he pressed on to improve his academics in college as a pre-med student, becoming a doctor and eventually a highly successful business entrepreneur, pilot, and attorney. Because of his challenging academic journey, he writes about the many pitfalls he could have avoided along the way, with a little guidance. Today John’s business career is active, but behind it is an underlying passion to help students and professionals through mentoring, speaking, writing, teaching, and consulting.
