Ditch the Act: Reveal the Surprising Power of the Real You for Greater Success
Author: Leonard Kim
Publisher: McGraw Hill Professional
ISBN: 126045438X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
Be human. It’s the only way to get ahead in business today. Competition today is fiercer than ever. It seems that every job candidate is flashing a world-class resume and every business competitor is the absolute best at what they do. Don’t be fooled. People exaggerate. And don’t be discouraged. By revealing stories of failures, setbacks, and personal flaws without shame or fear, you exhibit greater self-confidence than your competition. You cultivate connections with serious, smart people, and you build loyalty that lasts. Ditch the Act shows how to present your humanness—imperfect and flawed but honest, resilient, and willing to learn—in strategic ways to achieve clear, defined goals. It provides an actionable program for building an authentic, long-lasting personal brand, explaining why exposure is important and how it cultivates more durable connections than any polished persona can. By creating a personal brand that’s honest and authentic and that reveals personal struggles, you’ll build stronger, longer-lasting relationships—and achieve greater success. Careers and businesses based on authenticity and truth aren’t just more rewarding than those founded on hyperbole and the “hard sell.” Because they’re founded on durable, robust relationships, they’re rock-solid—and better withstand business uncertainty and tough times. Ditch the act, be real—and jump ahead of the competition before they even know you are there.

Dead Man in a Ditch
Author: Luke Arnold
Publisher: Orbit
ISBN: 0316455873
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 440
Book Description
In this brilliant sequel to actor Luke Arnold's debut The Last Smile in Sunder City, a former soldier turned PI solves crime in a world that's lost its magic. The name's Fetch Phillips -- what do you need? Cover a Gnome with a crossbow while he does a dodgy deal? Sure. Find out who killed Lance Niles, the big-shot businessman who just arrived in town? I'll give it shot. Help an old-lady Elf track down her husband's murderer? That's right up my alley. What I don't do, because it's impossible, is search for a way to bring the goddamn magic back. Rumors got out about what happened with the Professor, so now people keep asking me to fix the world. But there's no magic in this story. Just dead friends, twisted miracles, and a secret machine made to deliver a single shot of murder. Welcome back to the streets of Sunder City, a darkly imagined world perfect for readers of Ben Aaronovitch and Jim Butcher. Praise for Dead Man in a Ditch: "Superb... With a lead who would be at home in the pages of a Raymond Chandler or James Ellory novel and a nicely twisty plot, this installment makes a strong case for Arnold's series to enjoy a long run." ―Publishers Weekly "Arnold's universe has everything, including the angst of being human. The perfect story for adult fantasy fans—a tough PI and a murder mystery wrapped around the mysticism of Hogwarts, sprinkled with faerie dust." ―Library Journal (starred review) Fetch Phillips Novels The Last Smile in Sunder City Dead Man in a Ditch One Foot in the Fade

How to Ditch the Bitch
Author: Leanne Ellington
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781496112460
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
It's not every day that you come across an idea so obvious, so simple and yet so powerfully impactful as those presented within the pages of this short book. How To Ditch The Bitch is a truly powerful antidote to all of the naysaying, negative, and downright nasty things that you've most likely been saying TO yourself ABOUT yourself for as long as you can remember. Things related to how you look (or don't look), how smart (or dumb) you are, how gifted (or untalented) you feel, how valued (or worthless) you rate yourself to be and, in fact, every single horrible, nasty or downright bitchy judgment or comment you've ever thought or said about yourself. Much more than a simple 'be kind to yourself' or 'believe you're worth it' platitude offered by so many others working within the women's self-help genre, this little gem goes deeper by drawing on the latest findings in neuroscience as it relates to self-confidence, self-perception and self-esteem and helps women who are struggling to create change to finally rid themselves of the guilt, shame, and failure labels that are keeping them stuck where they are and living lives they don't love. Written in a clean, clear and highly consumable format, the book speaks to women in language they will understand and simply 'get' right from the start. By transforming negative thoughts, words and actions from a 'mindset thing' thing to the personalization of their qualities through 'The Bitches', women will finally come to understand why they feel the way they do, where those feelings come from and, perhaps most importantly, what to do about them in order to create rapid yet long-lasting change. In creating How To Ditch The Bitch, coach Leanne Ellington has undoubtedly created a giant leap for womankind that will certainly be marked as a turning point in moving women from living lives that they loathe to experiencing lives that they love. If you read the book cover to cover, do the exercises as laid out by Leanne and take the subsequent actions based upon what you find, a better life is not just possible or even probable. It's guaranteed!

The Big Ditch
Author: Noel Maurer
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691248079
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 440
Book Description
An incisive economic and political history of the Panama Canal On August 15, 1914, the Panama Canal officially opened for business, forever changing the face of global trade and military power, as well as the role of the United States on the world stage. The Canal's creation is often seen as an example of U.S. triumphalism, but Noel Maurer and Carlos Yu reveal a more complex story. Examining the Canal's influence on Panama, the United States, and the world, The Big Ditch deftly chronicles the economic and political history of the Canal, from Spain's earliest proposals in 1529 through the final handover of the Canal to Panama on December 31, 1999, to the present day. The authors show that the Canal produced great economic dividends for the first quarter-century following its opening, despite massive cost overruns and delays. Relying on geographical advantage and military might, the United States captured most of these benefits. By the 1970s, however, when the Carter administration negotiated the eventual turnover of the Canal back to Panama, the strategic and economic value of the Canal had disappeared. And yet, contrary to skeptics who believed it was impossible for a fledgling nation plagued by corruption to manage the Canal, when the Panamanians finally had control, they switched the Canal from a public utility to a for-profit corporation, ultimately running it better than their northern patrons. A remarkable tale, The Big Ditch offers vital lessons about the impact of large-scale infrastructure projects, American overseas interventions on institutional development, and the ability of governments to run companies effectively.
