Kallisti Publishing began publishing books in 1998 and became a full-fledged business (and passion) for the owner, Tony Michalski, in 2000. It all started with one very special book and with patience, persistence, and intenseness, Kallisti Publishing has grown to publish eleven books - with more on the way.
When Tony Michalski found an old book on his friend's bookshelf, he never would have guessed that he discovered something so special that it would start him on a new path, as well as turn the world on its ear.
The book Tony found was The Master Key System by Charles F. Haanel. The rest of the story practically writes itself. Tony couldn't find a copy of the book for himself, so he decided to bring it to the world once again. That's how inspired he was by the small - yet impressive - volume.
The first copies of the book were nothing more than well-typeset facsimiles. As time progressed and his experience grew, Tony released the first bookstore-ready version of The Master Key System in 2000.
After that event, the floodgates were open and more books were on the way. Master Key Arcana and The Amazing Secrets of the Yogi were next. They added to the Haanel experience as these were books that fans of Haanel really wanted to read.
About that time, Kallisti Publishing took on its first authors: MiMi Paris and Karl Walinskas. Continuing in the personal development genre, these authors added something to the Kallisti catalogue that it didn't have - fresh voices for people who strived to be good leaders.
Size Matters! became almost an instant underground classic because of Ms. Paris' direct. no-nonesense writing style. It's simple message containing the '21 Truths' everyone should know about 'effortless success' resonated with thousands of readers.
Mr. Walinskas' book Getting Connected Through Exceptional Leadership is the book for anyone who wants to be the best leader in this new century. Often funny and irreverent, it highlights the things one must do in order to earn respect and attain goals.
When he's not publishing Haanel's books or other books, Tony finds the time to keep a Master Key Blog and Podcast. He also penned the definitive book about The Master Key System, simply entitled The Master Key Workbook. While it follow the perfect structure established by Haanel, it diverges enough to add new layers of understanding to goal-setting and attainment. It was written using the best techniques that Tony ever used, while inventing many new and innovative ones as well. This book marked a milestone in personal development as it combined intelligent written exercises with poignant mental exercises to evince from a person their absolute best.
The Complete Charles F. Haanel Library brings all of Haanel's books together for one big, bulk purchase that saves a person time, money, and aggravation. Only the company that conscientiously published all of Haanel's books could pull off such an endeavour. And Kallisti Publishing did! The Complete Charles F. Haanel Library (also called The Master Key Course and The Complete Master Key System) is, quite frankly, the last personal development books you will ever have to buy. Why? Because when you read, study, and practice all of the material in all seven books, you'll be primed and ready for success and attainment in whatever you choose to do. It's as simple as that.
Kallisti Publishing is proud of its simple beginnings - and even the place it now holds in the genre of personal development. More books are on the way - both traditional books and e-books. And Kallisti Publishing will continue to be an innovator both in print and on the Internet.
Speaking of e-books, Kallisti Publishing's e-books typify how the company takes advantage of new technology and makes the reading experience better. Rather than merely converting a traditional book to a downloadable book that doesn't have any features, Kallisti embraces the technology to (dare we say!) make the reading experience even better! With clickable links, unlimited prints, and cut & paste capabilities built into every Kallisti e-book, the reader is in no way getting a 'second-class' book; rather, they are getting an entire new level of reading and understanding. Now that's innovation!
Kallisti Publishing's pledge is to bring to the world good books - books that inspire, help, encourage, and dare. It is committed to using the latest and best technology to make reading more popular than ever. And Kallisti Publishing vows to make the world a better place.
