Book excerpt: I wasn’t looking for love. Heck I wasn’t looking for anything. But it found me in a six-foot tall, two-hundred-pound hockey goalie. I try to fight it. I really do. This guy is a player, in more ways than one. At least I think he is. But I’m a Master of Psychology Student and there is one thing I know—not everything is as it appears. Looking deeper, I catch glimpses of the real Brady, the man this goalie keeps hidden—from everyone. I like that guy. A lot. And I’m pretty sure he likes me too. But then I discover something else about the man beneath the jersey, something dark and hurtful, something that tells me who I really am to him, which means there’s only one thing left for me to do… Show the player who he’s really playing with.

Book excerpt: All I wanted was to save the coastal resort that has been in our family for generations. Little did I expect the buyer would be the NHL player who my clique picked on in high school. I have no idea why the boy from the wrong side of the tracks would drag me—his enemy—back from the brink of ruin. But when he insists he has a position for me—nanny for his little girl–I begin to understand his motives. Revenge. I have no idea how he plans to exact it, but I’m willing to find out if it means saving White Beach Resort. As I wait for the ball to drop, the summer begins to slip by, and I begin to fall for the man who hates me. Stupid, I know. While I still haven’t discovered what he has up his sleeve, I slowly, deliciously discover what he has under his shirt…and below his belt. The only problem is, I can’t figure out if his touches and kisses are still about payback, or if they’re about something more. But I think I have a way to find out…and I pray it doesn’t backfire.

Download or read book Sticking Points written by Haydn Shaw and published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2013-07-22 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first time in American history that we have had four different generations working side-by-side in the workplace: the Traditionalists (born before 1945), the Baby Boomers (born 1945-1964), Gen X (born 1965-1980), and the Millennials (born 1981-2001). Haydn Shaw, popular business speaker and generational expert, has identified 12 places where the 4 generations typically come apart in the workplace (and in life as well). These sticking points revolve around differing attitudes toward managing one’s own time, texting, social media, organizational structure, and of course, clothing preferences. If we don’t learn to work together and stick together around these 12 sticking points, then we’ll be wasting a lot of time fighting each other instead of enjoying a friendly and productive team. Sticking Points is a must-read book that will help you understand the generational differences you encounter while teaching how we can learn to speak one another’s language and get better results together.

Download or read book The Content Trap written by Bharat Anand and published by Random House. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “My favorite book of the year.”—Doug McMillon, CEO, Wal-Mart Stores Harvard Business School Professor of Strategy Bharat Anand presents an incisive new approach to digital transformation that favors fostering connectivity over focusing exclusively on content. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BLOOMBERG Companies everywhere face two major challenges today: getting noticed and getting paid. To confront these obstacles, Bharat Anand examines a range of businesses around the world, from The New York Times to The Economist, from Chinese Internet giant Tencent to Scandinavian digital trailblazer Schibsted, and from talent management to the future of education. Drawing on these stories and on the latest research in economics, strategy, and marketing, this refreshingly engaging book reveals important lessons, smashes celebrated myths, and reorients strategy. Success for flourishing companies comes not from making the best content but from recognizing how content enables customers’ connectivity; it comes not from protecting the value of content at all costs but from unearthing related opportunities close by; and it comes not from mimicking competitors’ best practices but from seeing choices as part of a connected whole. Digital change means that everyone today can reach and interact with others directly: We are all in the content business. But that comes with risks that Bharat Anand teaches us how to recognize and navigate. Filled with conversations with key players and in-depth dispatches from the front lines of digital change, The Content Trap is an essential new playbook for navigating the turbulent waters in which we find ourselves. Praise for The Content Trap “A masterful and thought-provoking book that has reshaped my understanding of content in the digital landscape.”—Ariel Emanuel, co-CEO, WME | IMG “The Content Trap is a book filled with stories of businesses, from music companies to magazine publishers, that missed connections and could never escape the narrow views that had brought them past success. But it is also filled with stories of those who made strategic choices to strengthen the links between content and returns in their new master plans. . . . The book is a call to clear thinking and reassessing why things are the way they are.”—The Wall Street Journal
