In Answers for Life—a captivating blend of memoir and practical wisdom—Art Korpach invites you on his extraordinary journey: from Saskatchewan farm boy to Harvard Business School’s Socratic debates and the high-stakes world of mergers & acquisitions and finance. Blending vivid personal stories with timeless insights, he explores life’s core and contentious issues and the ties that bind us:

What legacy will you leave?

How do you balance purpose with career?

Can freedom and democracy withstand today’s divides over energy and climate change, social justice, socialism, eroding trust and many more critical issues?

Are you supportive of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies?

Are your beliefs built on solid ground, or shifting with convenience, self-interest or the approval of others?

Answers for Life provides a plethora of stories, third-party perspectives, and questions to leave the reader entertained and challenged.

Asking the right questions is the prerequisite to providing compelling answers. Art Korpach brings a wide and deep background to asking provocative questions about defining issues of our time. His answers push us to think critically, and humanely, about our history and path forward. That is the enduring contribution of his book. —Peter MacKinnon, Past President of University of Saskatchewan and Officer of Order of Canada
