Book excerpt: The ultimate self-help guide to finding your mindset mojo and unlocking your true potential in just 5 steps.Rewind back to 1978 when Bev and Steve Rodgers were expecting their first baby in a small Welsh village on the border of Cheshire. Did they realise that they were about to spawn a freedom fighter who would grow up to have rainbow hair, a ton of tattoos and a passion for creating social change? I imagine not. But that's what they got.At age 15 when the bright purple hair dye came out I can remember my dad rolling his eyes and saying 'it's just a phase' ......a really long, 25 year phase apparently!Being able to find the strength of character to break the mould, challenge perceptions, and carve out a unique style in an era when 'keeping up with the Jones's' was at an all time high with those serious social stigmas in suburban Britain, galvanized something within my core, and forged the person I am today, with the knowledge and experience to pass on to you, so that you can find your true self, however deeply hidden away that is.This book is for everybody, and I mean everybody. It's ageless, genderless, raceless, ability-less, social and economic background-less, (and any other 'less' you can think of). If you have ever felt battered down by modern society, living a lie as a shadow of your real self for fear of failure, ridicule or reprimand, then this is for you.I will be sharing some inspiration and wisdom with real practical steps, based on my own experience and that of the hundreds if not thousands of people I have worked with over the years who are in exactly the same boat. You will hear tales of my adventures within the fashion industry, to trekking across Peru, the joys of being self employed and raising four kids, and my mission to find my Tribe and gather other 'Soul Warriors' to collectively spread the feel-good factor and give our future generations a chance at a brighter future.You'll find weaved throughout the narrative some crucial steps that you can take today to spring clean your attitude and revamp your outlook - the magical key to find the real you, dream big, smash through limitations, and learn how to deal with the 'mood- hoovers' out there. Most importantly, you'll learn to value your worth. Why waste this chance to become everything you want to be, do everything you want to do? The only limitations are the ones that you impose on yourself, and for every excuse you can come up with I bet I can counteract it with a better reason to jump the hurdle and take the leap of faith. So arm yourself with a pen and paper, and grab a cuppa, because you are about to discover who you really are, what it is you were born to do, and unlock to door to the ultimate adventure of reaching your full potential.

Download or read book Humor Seriously written by Jennifer Aaker and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WALL STREET JOURNAL, LOS ANGELES TIMES, AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER • Anyone—even you!—can learn how to harness the power of humor in business (and life), based on the popular class at Stanford’s Graduate School of Business. Don’t miss the authors’ TED Talk, “Why great leaders take humor seriously,” online now. “The ultimate guide to using the magical power of funny as a tool for leadership and a force for good.”—Daniel H. Pink, #1 New York Times bestselling author of When and Drive We are living through a period of unprecedented uncertainty and upheaval in both our personal and professional lives. So it should come as a surprise to exactly no one that trust, human connection, and mental well-being are all on the decline. This may seem like no laughing matter. Yet, the research shows that humor and laughter are among the most valuable tools we have at our disposal for strengthening bonds and relationships, diffusing stress and tension, boosting resilience, and performing when the stakes are high. That’s why Jennifer Aaker and Naomi Bagdonas teach the popular course Humor: Serious Business at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, where they help some of the world’s most hard-driving, blazer-wearing business minds infuse more humor and levity into their work and lives. In Humor, Seriously, they draw on findings by behavioral scientists, world-class comedians, and inspiring business leaders to reveal how humor works and—more important—how you can use more of it, better. Aaker and Bagdonas unpack the theory and application of humor: what makes something funny, how to mine your life for material, and simple ways to identify and leverage your unique humor style. They show how to use humor to rebuild vital connections; appear more confident, competent, and authentic at work; and foster cultures where levity and creativity can thrive. President Dwight David Eisenhower once said, “A sense of humor is part of the art of leadership, of getting along with people, of getting things done.” If Dwight David Eisenhower, the second least naturally funny president (after Franklin Pierce), thought humor was necessary to win wars, build highways, and warn against the military-industrial complex, then you might consider learning it too.

Download or read book Dealstorming written by Tim Sanders and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-02-23 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sales genius is a team sport. As a B2B sales leader, you know that by Murphy’s Law, despite your team's best efforts, some deals will inevitably get stuck or key relationships will go sour. And too often, it's the most important ones—the last thing you need when millions of dollars are on the line. "Dealstorming" is Tim Sanders’s term for a structured, scalable, repeatable process that can break through any sales deadlock. He calls it “a Swiss Army knife for today’s toughest sales challenges.” It fixes the broken parts of the brainstorming process and reinvigorates account management for today's increasingly complicated sales environment. Dealstorming drives sales innovation by combining the wisdom and creativity of everyone who has a stake in the sale. You may think you are applying teamwork to your challenges, but don't be so sure. There's a good chance you're operating inside a sales silo, not building a truly collaborative team across your whole company. The more disciplines you bring into the process, the more unlikely (but effective!) solutions the team can come up with. Sanders explains his seven-step Dealstorming process and shows how it has helped drive results for companies as diverse as Yahoo!, CareerBuilder, Regus, and Condé Nast. You'll learn how to get the right team on board for a new dealstorm, relative to the size of the sales opportunity and its degree of difficulty. The key is adding people from non-sales areas of your company, making them collaborators early in the process. That will help them own the execution and delivery after the deal is done. The book includes real world examples from major companies like Oracle and Skillsoft, along with problem finding exercises, innovation templates, and implementation strategies you can apply to your unique situation. It's based on Sanders' many years as a sales executive and consultant, personally leading dozens of sales collaboration projects. It also features the results of interviews with nearly two hundred B2B sales leaders at companies such as LinkedIn, Altera and Novell. The strategies laid out in Dealstorming have led to a stunning 70% average closing ratio for teams across all major industries, leading to game-changing deals and long-term B2B relationships. Now you can learn how to make dealstorming work for you.

Book excerpt: TRUST: The Secret Weapon of Effective Business Leaders taps into a powerful current in American business – the importance of trust in a business's corporate strategy. In today's environment, leaders who add the most value to their companies tend to make decisions based not on short-term financial goals, but on strongly-held values. They develop a reservoir of trust among their key stakeholders and use it to speak frankly as challenges arise. These leaders are inspired by an adherence to principles that form, for each of them, a platform of rock-solid values they will not violate. TRUST brings into vivid focus the characteristics that make today's leaders successful, and the principles and techniques they use to earn the confidence of employees, colleagues, customers and the public. Using dozens of interviews with top business leaders, as well as real-life anecdotes and situations, CEO and business adviser Kathy Bloomgarden offers practical recommendations that can be applied by anyone, whether a corporate CEO, an executive of a not-for-profit organization, a politician, a division president, or even an ambitious young person at the beginning of his or her career.

Download or read book The Secret Weapon of Africa written by Yao Foli Modey and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-13 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was in the middle of the harmattan season, and the weather was hot and humid. The scorching rays of the sun had sucked the moisture out of every plant in the land and had turned the green leaves into dark yellow in color. Many of the leaves had fallen to the ground and had begun to decompose into dark loamy soil--rich, fertile land, innocent and untouched. And that was the way it was in ancient times. That was the way it was until the Oburoni slave traders arrived on the continent and changed everything, imposing their greed and guns on the inhabitants. The dry, humid air left many people panting for breath and sweating profusely. The women complained bitterly, the children suppressed their discomfort, but the men simply ignored the weather because they had bigger problems on their minds. They'd been thinking about the death and the devastation that the Oburoni intruders, these uninvited aliens, had unleashed on the land.
