Book Description
Kata Edgar Allan Poe, sebagian besar penulis takut jika proses berkaryanya diketahui orang lain. Sementara itu, Pablo Picasso kerap membuat orang yang berkomunikasi dengannya justru kehilangan energi dan motivasi berkarya. Ya, keduanya memang maestro legendaris, tapi sekarang bukan saatnya lagi berkarya ala mereka. Bukan juga zamannya Mozart sang genius musik. Ini eranya kamu, siapa pun kamu, bisa berkarya! Lalu, apa kuncinya? Tunjukkan saja. Di zaman keterbukaan ini, semua orang punya kesempatan sama untuk jadi hebat. Jangan sembunyikan proses kreatifmu. Undang orang-orang untuk melihatnya. Jangan khawatir kritik, karena itu bahan pelajaran buatmu. Ide yang menurutmu tidak menarik, siapa tahu luar biasa bagi orang lain. Lebih dari itu, karyamu juga bisa menginspirasi orang lain. Jadi, tunggu apa lagi? Tak perlu ragu atau malu. Berbagi karya membuatmu kaya! " ... Semakin banyak kamu memberi, semakin banyak yang kembali kepadamu."-Paul Arden [Mizan, Noura Books, Karya, Hidup, Berkarya, Kerja, Indonesia]

Pages : 225
Book Description
In his New York Times bestseller Steal Like an Artist, Austin Kleon showed readers how to unlock their creativity by “stealing” from the community of other movers and shakers. Now, in an even more forward-thinking and necessary book, he shows how to take that critical next step on a creative journey—getting known. Show Your Work! is about why generosity trumps genius. It’s about getting findable, about using the network instead of wasting time “networking.” It’s not self-promotion, it’s self-discovery—let others into your process, then let them steal from you. Filled with illustrations, quotes, stories, and examples, Show Your Work! offers ten transformative rules for being open, generous, brave, productive. In chapters such as You Don’t Have to Be a Genius; Share Something Small Every Day; and Stick Around, Kleon creates a user’s manual for embracing the communal nature of creativity— what he calls the “ecology of talent.” From broader life lessons about work (you can’t find your voice if you don’t use it) to the etiquette of sharing—and the dangers of oversharing—to the practicalities of Internet life (build a good domain name; give credit when credit is due), it’s an inspiring manifesto for succeeding as any kind of artist or entrepreneur in the digital age.

Pages : 343
Book Description
Organizations struggle to capture tacit knowledge. Workers struggle to find answers and information across organizational databases and boundaries and silos. New comfort with social sharing, combined with the proliferation of new social tools, offer easy, useful means of sharing not just what we do but how we get things done. For the organization this supports productivity, improves performance, encourages reflective practice, speeds communication, and helps to surface challenges, bottlenecks, and that elusive tacit knowledge. For the worker it illuminates strengths, talents, struggles, and the reality of how days are spent. For the coworker or colleague it solves a problem, saves time, or builds on existing knowledge. And for management it helps to capture who does what, and how, and otherwise makes visible so much of what is presently opaque. What does showing work mean? It is an image, video, blog post, or use of another tool, or just talking to describe how you solved a problem, show how you fixed the machine, tell how you achieved the workaround, explain how you overcame objections to close the deal, drew the solution to the workflow problem, or photographed the steps you took as you learned to complete a new task. Some of the most effective examples of showing work offer someone explaining how/why they failed, and how they fixed it. Show Your Work offers dozens of examples of individuals and groups showing their work to the benefit of their organizations, their industries, and themselves. Show Your Work offers dozens of real examples of showing work, supported with tips for how to help it happen, how leaders can lead by showing their own work, and how L&D can extend its reach by showing its own work and helping others show theirs.

In Work at Home Now, you'll learn: The top insider tips on "good" and "bad" Google search terms. How to find the "needles in the haystack" on Craigslist, Indeed, Monster, CareerBuilder, and other big sites.

Including interviews with hiring managers and successful home-based workers, Work at Home Now is the ultimate guide to finding the work-at-home job or project you want most.
