This book was released on 2021-04-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you become one of the few organizations or individuals that become extraordinary? How can you succeed where most organizations fail? The goal of P!NK GOLDF!SH 2.0 is to help you to compete more effectively by becoming truly different. Based on over 400 case studies, the book provides an unconventional eight-part F.L.A.W.S.O.M.E. framework for achieving competitive separation by embracing flaws, instead of fixing them. P!NK GOLDF!SH 2.0 is broken into three main sections: Section I outlines the Why. It explores the need to embrace weirdness and amplify weakness to differentiate in business. We reveal how everything we've learned about weakness is wrong. We show how every weakness has a corresponding strength. We examine the seven reasons to embrace weirdness. The section ends with an explanation of our metaphor of the Pink Goldfish. We'll share the symbolism of the goldfish and the reasoning behind the color pink. Section II showcases the What. Here we examine the concept of being F.L.A.W.S.O.M.E. This is the idea of embracing your flaws. You can succeed because of your flaws, not despite them. We use F.L.A.W.S.O.M.E. as our acronym for the eight types of Pink Goldfish. We share our flaunting matrix and each type: Flaunting, Lopsiding, Antagonizing, Withholding, Swerving, Opposing, Micro-weirding, and Exposing. This section points out the ways to stand out by doing more of what makes you inherently imperfect, and intentionally less of what others consider normal and strong in business. Section III explains the How. Here we share the process of finding your own Pink Goldfish. We delve into the six A's. The first A is Assess, and it involves understanding what makes you imperfect. The second A is Appreciate. Appreciation is accepting and taking ownership of your uniqueness. The third A is Align. Aligning is about finding those areas of weirdness and weakness that resonate with your customer and create meaningful differentiation. The fourth A is Amplifi. Amplification is the process of turning up or turning down the dial to bring your differentiation to life. The fifth A is Augment. Augmenting is combining two or more strategies to become even more unique. The sixth and final A is Attack. Attack will provide insight on how to exploit the weaknesses of your competition.

Book excerpt: “A necessary book for anyone truly interested in what we take from the sea to eat, and how, and why.” —Sam Sifton, The New York Times Book Review Acclaimed author of American Catch and The Omega Princple and life-long fisherman, Paul Greenberg takes us on a journey, examining the four fish that dominate our menus: salmon, sea bass, cod, and tuna. Investigating the forces that get fish to our dinner tables, Greenberg reveals our damaged relationship with the ocean and its inhabitants. Just three decades ago, nearly everything we ate from the sea was wild. Today, rampant overfishing and an unprecedented biotech revolution have brought us to a point where wild and farmed fish occupy equal parts of a complex marketplace. Four Fish offers a way for us to move toward a future in which healthy and sustainable seafood is the rule rather than the exception.

Download or read book Green Goldfish 2 written by Lauren McGhee and published by 9 Inch Marketing. This book was released on 2018-12-27 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlocking the 15 Keys to Employee Engagement Green Goldfish 2.0 is based on the simple premise that employees are the key drivers of customer experience and that "Happy Employees Create Happy Customers." The book focuses on 15 different ways to drive employee engagement and reinforce a strong corporate culture. The book is based on the findings of the Green Goldfish Project, an effort which crowdsourced over 1,001 examples of signature added value for employees. Key themes emerged from the Project and the book is filled with over 200 examples. Creating Green Goldfish in your organization provides three benefits: 1. Differentiation - Doing little extras provide a tangible way to stand out in a sea of sameness. The little extra gives the company a "remark"able difference or set of signature differences. 2. Retention - If you keep employees happy, they tend to stick around longer. 3. Word of mouth - By creating a culture that attracts talent, you can become a desired place to work. The result is that you'll get more "A" players. The book is broken into three main sections: Section I: Here we outline the "Why" This part of our book explores the reasons for focusing on engagement and where the metaphor of a Goldfish originated. Section II: This is where we explore the "Ingredients" We'll uncover the five R.U.L.E.S. for creating a Green Goldfish: Relevant, Unexpected, Limited, Expressive and Sticky. Section III: The "What" Here we share the 15 different types of Green Goldfish and the categories they fall under: the three B's: Building, Belonging, and Becoming. Praise for Green Goldfish 2.0: "So often overlooked, and so very vital to building company value... empowering employees to support each other and the brand. Green Goldfish 2.0 will walk you step-by-step through achieving this critical goal." - TED RUBIN, AUTHOR OF RETURN ON RELATIONSHIP "Green Goldfish 2.0 shows how to manage employees by commitment and not control. Bravo " - BARRY MOLTZ, AUTHOR OF BAM, BOUNCE, AND GETTING BUSINESS UNSTUCK "Green Goldfish 2.0 takes customer service to a whole new level by focusing on EMPLOYEE service, and how to do well by your employees - so they take care of your customers. Packed with stories, insights and R.U.L.E.S. any company can follow, this book is a must-read for managers of companies of all shapes and sizes who know that employees don't leave jobs--they leave managers, especially when they don't feel your love and appreciation.
