Download or read book Ctrl Alt Delete written by Mitch Joel and published by Business Plus. This book was released on 2013-05-21 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A game-changing book that outlines the ways in which technology has transformed how brands and businesses innovate and connect with consumers: "An indispensable read for a time when so much is in transition" (Arianna Huffington). The DNA of business has changed. Forever. You can blame technology, smartphones, social media, online shopping and everything else, but nothingchanges this reality: we are in a moment of business purgatory. So, what are you going to do about it? Mitch Joel, one of the world's leading experts in new media, warns that the time has come to CTRL ALT DELETE. To reboot and to start re-building your business model. If you don't, Joel warns, not only will your company begin to slide backwards, but you may find yourself unemployable within five years. That's a very strong warning, but in his new book, CTRL ALT DELETE, Joel explains the convergence of five key movements that have changed business forever. The movements have already taken place, but few businesses have acted on them. He outlines what you need to know to adapt right now. He also points to the seven triggers that will help you take advantage of these game-changing factors to keep you employable as this new world of business unfolds. Along the way, Joel introduces his novel concept of "squiggle" which explains how you can learn to adapt your personal approach to your career, as new technology becomes the norm. In short, this is not a book about "change management" but rather a book about "changing both you AND your business model."

Download or read book Reboot written by Phil Burgess and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2011-08 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reboot to work; retirement is a disease. It 's better to wear out than rust out. That is the message of Reboot! While American culture glamorizes the Golden Years of endless leisure and amusement, Phil Burgess rejects retirement, as he makes the case for returning to work in the post-career years, a time he calls later life. Based on solid research from the social and medical sciences, the author says, It is better to die with your boots on, fully engaged in helping others and repairing the world. Reboot! is partly autobiographical. Indeed, the author is working well into his own post-career years, following two failed retirements. He is also convincing in his eye-opening, historically rooted, and hope-filled arguments for engaging in life-long work that is productive and satisfying. Reboot! identifies five different types of work: in-kind, volunteer, Samaritan, enrichment, and paid work. Booters who incorporate one or more of these types of work into their post-career lifestyle will, according to Burgess, live longer, live better, and die faster avoiding boredom, aimless busy-ness, diminished self-worth and the anguish (and cost) of lingering death. With America 's 78 million boomers turning 65 at the rate of 10,000 a day for the next 18 years, Reboot! provides a timely and provocative alternative to the conventional idea of retirement. With the promises of Social Security and Medicare about to be broken, Reboot! provides an upbeat and constructive way to deal with new financial realities. For men and women navigating life 's transitions, striving to finish well, Reboot! provides a roadmap for living a life of meaning, challenging the reader to be a booter, not a retiree. Burgess boldly asserts that retirement is a deadly disease, and that work after a life of work is the best option for post-career years that are meaningful, productive, healthy, and satisfying. See www.BooterNation.comExcerpts: On retirement: Not all ideas are good ideas. Some are bad ideas. Retirement is one of those bad ideas it makes no sense Retirement is not natural. It is not historic. It is not healthy. It is not, for most people, fulfilling. For many, retirement is a widow maker. On the value of work: The social engagement and satisfaction that come from working in later life are keys to successful aging There is much work to do in this world where we are but temporary inhabitants. We should find it and do it at least for as long as we re able. In many ways, our life depends on it. On work and money: Work is not only about money. Even if you don t need the money and your financial situation is stable and comfortable, returning to work in your post-career life is the smart thing to do at least until sidelined by frailty or disability. It 's smart because good health and satisfaction in later-life are most likely to come from working. On different types of work: For most of us, post-career work will be tailored work, work customized to reflect our needs, our deepest desires, and the highest and best use of our gifts especially time, talent, and treasure. Work tailored to our gifts will be productive and satisfying.

In Reboot, he inspires everyone to hold themselves responsible for their choices and for the possibility of truly achieving their dreams. Work does not have to destroy us.

Book excerpt: From Silicon Valley leader Maynard Webb, how we can leverage technology to change how we work Maynard Webb has always been the go-to guy when Silicon Valley companies have thorny problems. Whether revamping eBay's crashing servers (transforming their technology weaknesses into a competitive strength) or investing in emerging technology start-ups, Webb brings strategic and operational savvy to every issue and venture. In his first book, Webb brings this same focus to tackle outdated models of work, created a century ago, which no longer sync up with either individual or employers' needs. Through a unique framework, Webb identifies 4 different mindsets around work (the company man, CEO of your own destiny, disenchanted employee, and the aspiring entrepreneur). It organizes those who are self-motivated versus those who are waiting to be discovered and aims to give readers the tools to become more self-actualized, happier, and ultimately more fulfilled in their careers. In identifying a paradigm shift that is already under way, Webb demonstrates clearly how to harness technology to embrace our own personal happiness, allowing people to become more productive at work and also spend more time with their families.

Download or read book Life Reboot written by Mashrur Hossain and published by . This book was released on 2017-12-28 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picture this: It's Tuesday, 11 pm. The sun has fallen far beyond the horizon and the sky is flickering with stars. You are lounging on a beanbag chair (orange, if I remember correctly) listening to a DJ spinning some cool tunes flowing with the sound of the waves along the shore in front of you. It's about 31 degrees (88 Fahrenheit) with a nice cool breeze. A colorful canopy of umbrellas decorated with festive lights sway above you. Your bare feet are tucked into the sand as a cold beer rests in your hand. Completely absorbed in this surreal scene, something catches your eye. Your gaze into the soothing blackness becomes illuminated by the small flame of a paper lantern your wife just released into the sky. You watch the lantern drifting from her outstretched arms and fading slowly into nothingness. But the absence of light doesn't leave a void of darkness, it creates a pallet for absolute clarity. It dawns on you, this isn't a vacation. This isn't going to end. You're not going back to a corporate job in two weeks. This is your life now, this is reality and for the first time in a very long time you don't have a worry in the world. How does it feel?That was me on Seminyak beach in Bali (Indonesia), summer of 2016. That is when I realized that I had arrived. I had crossed over into the realm of true freedom. Where every day, you wake up slowly without setting an alarm, beautifully synchronized with the sun peeking through the window. Your eyes are wide open, and you can't help but smile. You get 8 full hours of glorious sleep and all is right with the world. No urgent deliverables to deal with, no emails to check till 10am, no stress...you are excited to take on your morning routine, every morning, excited to take on your day, every single day. You look forward to the adventures that may unfold...life is good.And that is also when I realized I needed to share this with the world, I wanted to share this with you. Share how I did it, the tips and tricks I learned along the way and the foundations that make my approach replicable so you may also, if you follow the principles outlined in the book, experience the same level of freedom in your life.
