Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am so excited about the call upon my life to help women around the world who have the entrepreneurial spirit—bring it forth to successfully start and grow businesses! Getting results in business first means getting results on the inside of you. Regardless of the industry you’re in or your reasons for becoming an entrepreneur, your business is an outward reflection of you. For years, I tried my hand at entrepreneurship, trying any and everything from manual labor to working in the financial services industry. Though I found success in these areas, it never lasted or generated the results I was capable of. Then I discovered the key to business success. My business success or failure was a direct reflection of what was going on within me. My discovery of this key point led to me going from hitting and missing in business to uncovering my purpose and being about my business. If you’re reading this, then you have probably been gifted the entrepreneurial spirit. But just like me, the business you fail or succeed at will be a direct reflection of you. Let’s make sure that you have the proper strategies, tools, and motivation to win from the inside out. It’s time for you to be about your business!

Download or read book I ll Have What She s Having written by R. Alexander Bentley and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2011-08-26 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How we learn from those around us: an essential guide to understanding how people behave. Humans are, first and foremost, social creatures. And this, according to the authors of I'll Have What She's Having, shapes—and explains—most of our choices. We're not just blindly driven by hard-wired instincts to hunt or gather or reproduce; our decisions are based on more than “nudges” exploiting individual cognitive quirks. I'll Have What She's Having shows us how we use the brains of others to think for us and as storage space for knowledge about the world. The story zooms out from the individual to small groups to the complexities of populations. It describes, among other things, how buzzwords propagate and how ideas spread; how the swine flu scare became an epidemic; and how focused social learning by a few gets amplified as copying by the masses. It describes how ideas, behavior, and culture spread through the simple means of doing what others do. It is notoriously difficult to change behavior. For every “Yes We Can” political slogan, there are thousands of “Just Say No” buttons. I'll Have What She's Having offers a practical map to help us navigate the complex world of social behavior, an essential guide for anyone who wants to understand how people behave and how to begin to change things.

Download or read book She Memes Well written by Quinta Brunson and published by Mariner Books. This book was released on 2021 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From comedian Quinta Brunson comes a deeply personal and funny collection of essays featuring anecdotes about trying to make it when you're broke, overcoming self-doubt and depression, and how she's used humor to navigate her career in unusual directions. Quinta Brunson is a master of viral Internet content: without any traditional background in media, her humorous videos were the first to break through on Instagram's platform, receiving millions of views. From there, Brunson's wryly observant POV attracted the attention of BuzzFeed's motion picture development department, leading her to produce viral videos there about topics like interracial dating, millennial malaise, and seeing your ex in public. Now, Brunson is bringing her comedic chops to the page in She Memes Well, an earnest, laugh-out-loud collection about her weird road to Internet notoriety. In her debut essay collection, Quinta applies her trademark humor and heart to discuss what it was like to go from student loan debt-broke to "halfway recognizable--'don't I know you somewhere?'" level-of-fame. With anecdotes that range from the funny and zany--like her experience trying to find her signature hairstyle--to more grounded material about living with depression, Brunson's voice is entirely authentic and eminently readable. Perfect for fans of Phoebe Robinson's You Can't Touch My Hair, Samantha Irby's We Are Never Meeting in Real Life, and Issa Rae's The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl, She Memes Well will charm and entertain a growing, engaged audience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What do women want?" While Sigmund Freud may have most famously asked this question, it is a safe bet that he wasn't the first (or last) to puzzle over it. Even in our current complex and self-aware age, women's lives are all too often viewed in the light of familiar generalizations and obsolete notions from terms long past. Surely the truth of a woman's life can best be found in its details. What keeps her up at night? What makes her laugh out loud? What frustrates her? Intrigues her? Inspires her? Fulfills her? To uncover these details and find out what makes woman tick, She Means Business draws in groundbreaking, never before published research conducted by the Time Inc. Women's Group of magazines. The thirteen diverse publications that make up the group, including best-selling titles like People, Parenting, Cooking Light, Essence, In Style, Teen People, Health, BabyTalk, Real Simple, People en Espanol, All You, Cottage Living, and Suede, reach over 45 million women a year. To ensure that its magazines remain the most up-to-date and trusted brands in the business, Time Inc. annually sponsors numerous surveys, focus groups, and large-scale studies across the country, involving more than 30,000 woman - those who read the company's magazines and those who don't. Filled with fascinating insights across a wide spectrum of topics, from health to style to careers to motherhood to personal relationships, She Means Business provides an unparalleled opportunity to better understand the most diverse, dynamic and economically powerful force in today's consumer marketplace.

Download or read book The Progress Principle written by Teresa Amabile and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2011-07-19 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What really sets the best managers above the rest? It’s their power to build a cadre of employees who have great inner work lives—consistently positive emotions; strong motivation; and favorable perceptions of the organization, their work, and their colleagues. The worst managers undermine inner work life, often unwittingly. As Teresa Amabile and Steven Kramer explain in The Progress Principle, seemingly mundane workday events can make or break employees’ inner work lives. But it’s forward momentum in meaningful work—progress—that creates the best inner work lives. Through rigorous analysis of nearly 12,000 diary entries provided by 238 employees in 7 companies, the authors explain how managers can foster progress and enhance inner work life every day. The book shows how to remove obstacles to progress, including meaningless tasks and toxic relationships. It also explains how to activate two forces that enable progress: (1) catalysts—events that directly facilitate project work, such as clear goals and autonomy—and (2) nourishers—interpersonal events that uplift workers, including encouragement and demonstrations of respect and collegiality. Brimming with honest examples from the companies studied, The Progress Principle equips aspiring and seasoned leaders alike with the insights they need to maximize their people’s performance.
