Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The truth is - it doesn't matter how smart or how slick a presentation is, if it isn't in sync with the decision maker's mindset, then it's bound to fail. That's the conclusion drawn by Miller and Williams, who completed an exhaustive study of more than 1,700 key business executives. Their research shows that decision makers can be placed into five distinct categories: Charismatics, Thinkers, Skeptics, Followers, and Controllers. Once the category the decision maker falls into is determined, then the presentation can be tailored to their precise mindset.

Download or read book Confessions of a Streetwalker written by David L. McKenna and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2005 my wife, Jan, and I moved into a condo along the shores of Lake Washington. Even though I had served as President of Seattle Pacific University back in the 1970s, I was unknown on the streets of the resort-like village of Kirkland, Washington. Each morning Molly, our Maltese puppy, and I went across the street for her "potty break" and exercise. Soon, with Molly as the introducer, I discovered a new world where strangers became friends through the connection of our dogs. Later, after two back surgeries, Jan joined us on our daily walk down the street, through the village, and around the park by using a doggie stroller as a substitute for a walker. The sight of the three of us walking down the street, with Molly peering forward from her seat at the helm of the stroller, became a phenomenon of its own on the streets of Kirkland. Together, we walked through an open door of learning and found that friendship based upon listening, caring, and giving is a grace that God reserves for plain people who walk daily and serve joyfully in common places.
Download or read book Larkspur Lane written by Nivedita Dey and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2022-01-18 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prufrock, in his love song, sees the mermaids ride seaward. What he does not see is the left behind broken seashore. Nivedita Dey, in her poems, tries to "fix with cello tape this vast broken seashore". There are wordplays, puns, enjambments and literary allusions in her poems, but what is paramount is the searing honest expression of poetry. Here she presents "human maps" in her “glass jarhead” before the “hourglass inverts to an all-encompassing end”. Read her before it is late. – Amit Shankar Saha, Poet, Assistant Professor at Seacom Skills University, Author of Balconies of Time, Fugitive Words, Illicit Poems. The mind’s a maze where our deepest thoughts often crouch; thoughts we hide even from ourselves. Nivedita’s poetry brings them out; rawest wounds are bared; the reader’s left out of breath. Then, her poems gently raise us from our hurting selves and show us the doorway to the universe of light and hope. Larkspur Lane is a collection that speaks in a voice that’s neither sympathizing nor judgmental. It doesn’t speak from a high pedestal. It’s a voice that we hear every day but don’t listen to really. It’s our very own inner voice, and it tells us we’re never alone. – Ananya Chatterjee, Poet, Translator, Software Professional at Oracle, Author of The Poet & His Valentine, a collection of verses, Another Soliloquy, The Blind Man’s Rainbow, Un-building Walls and other books.
