Shola's book MAKING WORK WORK published September 6th, 2016 by Sterling Ethos and is focused on providing employees with the necessary strategies to create their own positivity movements within their workplace environments. When Shola's not busy with all of the "world saving" business, he enjoys sports, working out, watching inspirational TED videos, drinking green smoothies, and wondering if there is anyone in this world who doesn't find clowns to be incredibly creepy.
