Book Description
At a young age I saw these 300 acres as a great opportunity to own our generational ranch. My great grandfather built this home in late 1880’s. I planted peach trees and almond trees as seeds of my future began to grow. Patience was learned. The first store opened September 1972. A new retail concept was born. I tease my kids, “If this works it will be a miracle”. That is exactly what happened. A miracle was born on an old central valley California ranch. This is a true story of great moments with big challenges. If it all sounds like a fantasy or just pure luck I would encourage you to read my story. Maybe you will recognize yourself inside my journey. The Entrepreneur.

The Playful Entrepreneur
Author: Mark Dodgson
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300240686
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
A compelling account of how incorporating play into work can help us overcome the uncertainty and turbulence that surrounds work How can we learn to deal with uncertainty at work? The answer, as Dodgson and Gann eloquently portray in this pathfinding book, is to learn from the adaptive behaviors of entrepreneurs. Play, the authors show, is a crucial component of this. It encourages exploration, experimentation, and curiosity while it also challenges established practices and orthodoxies. It facilitates change in people and organizations. Drawing on in-depth interviews with entrepreneurs and innovators, this book explains why we should incorporate play into work, what play looks like, and how to encourage playfulness in individuals and organizations. Dodgson and Gann identify four key behaviors that endorse, encourage, and guide play: grace, craft, fortitude, and ambition, and provide a blueprint for an alternative way of working that fosters resilience and encourages innovation and growth in difficult times.

The Vanishing Convertible
Author: Cate Martin
Publisher: Ratatoskr Press
ISBN: 1965167152
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 45
Book Description
Every new year carries with it the tantalizing promise of better times to come. It brings the possibility of prosperity that the old year never delivered. It arrives with hope, if only for a moment. Dorothy Lundegaard hopes that 1938 will mean more success for her and her brother and their struggling Lundegaard Investigations. At least enough success to make her a full-fledged partner in the business. But their first job in the new year presents quite a conundrum. A case of theft that the police deem not a crime. An expensive new car, a Cadillac series 65 convertible, mysteriously vanishes, then reappears just where it belonged. Clean, full of gas, but with extra miles on the odometer. But who would steal such a valuable car then return it two days later? For that matter, who would choose the coldest January night with temperatures well below zero to steal a convertible? And what if the police are only half right? It might not be theft, but there just might have been a crime. One that only the Lundegaards working together can uncover. "The Vanishing Convertible," a short story in the continuing Dorothy Lundegaard Mysteries.
