<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>Read the story everyone is talking about: how a janitor struggling to put food on the table invented Flamin' Hot Cheetos in a secret test kitchen, breaking barriers and becoming the first Latino frontline worker promoted to executive at Frito-Lay.</b></b> <p/>Richard Montañez is a man who made a science out of walking through closed doors, and his success story is an empowerment manual for anyone stuck in a dead-end job or facing a system stacked against them. <p/>Having taken a job mopping floors at Frito-Lay's California factory to support his family, Montañez took his future into his own hands and created the world's hottest snack food: Flamin' Hot Cheetos. This bold move not only disrupted the food industry with some much-needed spice, but also shook up a corporate culture in which everyone stayed in their lane. When a top food scientist at Frito-Lay sent out a memo telling sales and marketing to kill the new product before it made it to the store shelves--jealous that someone with no formal education beyond the sixth grade could do his job--Montañez was forced to go rogue once again to save his idea. Through creative thinking, community building, and a few powerful mindset shifts, he outsmarted the naysayers who tried to get in his way. <p/><i>Flamin' Hot</i> proves that you can break out of your career rut and that your present circumstances don't have to dictate your future.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"From the moment I heard Richard Montañez's amazing story, I knew it had to be shared with the world.
