Executive education expert Julio Zelaya recently hit two Amazon.com best-seller lists with the new business book, “Transform,” co-authored with best-selling author and speaker Brian Tracy.

Ciudad, Guatemala – September 24, 2014 – Julio Zelaya, President of The Learning Group, recently joined noted business development expert, best-selling author and speaker, Brian Tracy, along with a select group of the world’s leading experts, to co-author the book titled, Transform: The World’s Leading Entrepreneurs and Professionals Get to the Heart and Soul of Transforming your Life, Business & Health. The book was released on September 18, 2014 by CelebrityPress™ – a leading business book publisher.

On the day of release, Transform reached best-seller status in two Amazon.com categories – reaching as high as #6 in the “Direct Marketing” category. The book also reached best-seller status in the “Marketing and Small Business” category. Julio Zelaya contributed a chapter titled, “Voyage of an Entrepreneur – Achieving Your Dreams And Living Your Purpose.”

Julio Zelaya is a bilingual, international speaker (Spanish/English) (www.juliozelaya.com) whose charismatic and inspiring style has led him to share the stage as a keynote speaker with some of the best in the world, including Dave Ulrich and Sir Ken Robinson. He’s been involved in the training and formation of over 250,000 people in the continental U.S. as well as other countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, sharing on how to live with purpose and entrepreneurship as a lifestyle. He was a conference speaker at TEDx Guatemala City – sharing on “The Gift of Dreaming.”

Author of twelve books, including “La Travesia del Emprendimiento” (The Entrepreneurship Voyage), and “Sólo por ser usted” (Just because it’s you), both written in Spanish, his articles are commonly published in prestigious magazines of Central America such as Business and Strategy. He co-authored the book SuccessOnomics in English (available in October 2014). He’s currently working on his next book on how to live a life full of purpose (available in English and Spanish in November 2014). He has taught at conferences at Penn State University, Tulane University as well as at a number of entrepreneurial summits.

He was selected as one of America’s PremierExperts™ and has been featured on NBC, ABC, FOX and CBS television affiliates speaking on entrepreneurship and leading a life with purpose.

CelebrityPress™ describes the book:

When we think of transformation, we automatically think of metamorphosis or change. One of the first metamorphoses we discover as a child is the universally- quoted change of the caterpillar into the butterfly. The positive symbolism of this transformation is liberally applied to illustrate the change from ‘ugly duckling’ to ‘elegant swan’ in all fields.

This symbolism readily transfers to just about any change for the better. The guidance of individuals who have experienced positive change with mentoring, have taken calculated risks and enjoyed accomplishments in their field, may be seen as role models. We also note that the transformations of the PremierExperts® in this book are not limited by ‘dollars and cents’ measurement, but include body, mind and soul accomplishments.

The transforming experiences discussed by the PremierExperts® in this book cover many subjects including positive mindset changes, changes wrought by perseverance, passion, due diligence, restructuring, technology, systems, techniques, etc., …in fact, they cover positive changes that cut across numerous disciplines and fields.

After such a successful release, Julio Zelaya will once again be recognized by The National Academy of Best-Selling Authors™, an organization that honors authors from many of the leading independent best-seller lists.
