Title: The Introverted Leader: Building on Your Quiet Strength

Author: Jennifer Kahnweiler

Narrator: Tiffany Williams

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 7 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-17-18

Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers

Genres: Business, Career Skills

Publisher's Summary:

"Finally, a book that recognizes the immense value that introverts bring to the workplace." - Daniel Pink, author of Drive and When

A prevailing myth is that a big, vibrant personality is needed to succeed in the workplace, but often, the quietest people have the loudest minds. Unfortunately, in our extroverted business culture, introverts can feel excluded, overlooked, or misunderstood. Jennifer Kahnweiler shows that introversion is a source of strength. Just look at Arianna Huffington and Mark Zuckerberg, two introverts who have learned to be themselves and thrive in type-A work environments.

This revised and expanded second edition draws on new research, interviews, and insights from thousands of introverted leaders, including fresh information on the unique challenges faced by introverted women; how leaders can shape a more inclusive, introvert-friendly workplace; the brains of introverts; and the correlation between introverted leadership and company performance.

Kahnweiler lays out a well-tested, progressive four-step strategy called "The 4 Ps Process" for succeeding in the workplace by building on your natural quiet strengths. First, preparation: carefully devise a game plan for any potentially anxiety-provoking situation. Then, presence: knowing you're prepared, be completely focused on the present moment. Then, you can push - go beyond your comfort zone. And finally, practice, practice, practice.

A newly revised quiz helps pinpoint where to amplify your quiet strengths and when to consider flexing your style. Kahnweiler shows exactly how to apply the 4 Ps in areas that can be particularly challenging for introverts - including networking, making presentations, and handling meetings. Aspiring leaders will be able to contribute more fully to their organization while staying true to themselves and serve as models and mentors to others as they move forward in their careers.

Glad that the author acknowledges the gifts introverts have to ...

So insightful and spot on for many introvert tendencies. Glad that the author acknowledges the gifts introverts have to offer and how they can further tap into their genius.

Keep Pushing!

On the back cover it says, "In our extroverted business culture, introverts can feel excluded, overlooked, or misunderstood..." When I read that, I *knew* I had to read this book. It aptly described many of the experiences I've had in my professional career and in my personal life.

The 4 P's Kahnweiler describes (Prepare, Presence, Push, Practice) seem so fundamental, you'll wonder why you didn't think of them on your own. However, in her book, she goes on to describe specific applications of the 4 P's (in meetings or when managing projects, for example) that help firmly cement the concepts so they are more than a logical abstraction.

After reading this book, it was clear to me that I'd done a good job on the first two P's (Prepare and Presence), but I had become complacent. I wasn't really growing professionally or personally and had been wondering why. Now I knew: it was because I was afraid to step out of my comfort zone.

Since then I've been concentrating on the "third P" by pushing myself in many new directions. For example, a HUGE "push" for me was that I recently took a series of Improv classes.

Publisher's Summary:

Don't Slow Down-Team Up!

With countless emails, constant communication, cascading deadlines, and seemingly endless meetings, it's a wonder any of us gets anything done these days. You can try working harder or faster or smarter, but what really makes the difference is teaming well.

A good team is the most powerful productivity machine in existence. Laura Stack's FAST model mobilizes teams to be the most effective they can be, while keeping each other's best interests at heart. Teams learn to work together Fairly, accept Accountability, apply Systems Thinking, and maximize available Technology.

An interactive assessment helps you evaluate your team's current speed and rate of acceleration. Every team may have its stars, but they couldn't do their jobs without the rest of the team doing theirs. By the end of this audiobook, you'll truly understand the abilities of your team and how each member makes things go. So, rev your team's engines, and you'll soon be roaring down the track together!

Members Reviews:

Increase Your Teamâs Productivity

Right from the introduction of Laura Stackâs latest book, you get the feeling that youâre behind the

wheel of a race car at a NASCAR event. The tips and techniques come fast and furiously as you speed

around the track. Although odd to say about a business book, the writing actually captures the mood of

the authorâs goal: to speed teams of employees (not just individuals) along to increased productivity.

The book focuses on four keys to productivity: 1) Fairness 2) Accountability 3) Systems-Thinking 4)

Technology. My favorite section: âSystems-Thinkingâ! As a salesperson and consultant in and out of

corporations for most of my career and as a volunteer serving in nonprofits, Iâve observed this as the

biggest weakness for corporations. Teams often bog down in their systems: They fail to consider the

long-term consequences of short-term actions.

Under the four âkeys,â the book addresses many topics: What to do with the toxic teammate. What to

put on your Not-To- Do list. How to take the initiative when your meeting facilitator fails. How to decide

which method of communication is most appropriate for what situation. When consensus is the best

approach for decision-making. And so much more.

Itâs a rare business book that captures the emotion, camaraderie, and the exhilaration of speed and

accomplishment. Stackâs book manages to do just that. I highly recommend this book if youâre looking

to increase productivity as a team.

Owners Manual for Driving a FAST Team

Laura Stack is the Productivity Pro and she has written several books on individual productivity, but this is her first on improving team productivity.

Since I am a professional meeting facilitator, I was particularly impressed with how she broke down the elements of team productivity into four FAST keys - each with three accelerators. There's a quick test to take to assess your team's productivity - and then you can use the book as a training guide or "owner's manual" into accelerating the performance of the team.

It's written in such a way that the team can take one key or even one accelerator and drive performance around it - assign the pages to read, then discuss as a team what they are doing well and what they can do better.

Title: How to Start, Run and Grow a Successful Residential & Commercial Cleaning Busine

Release date: 12-11-17

Publisher's Summary:

How to Start, Run and Grow a Successful Residential & Commercial Cleaning Business

Hello, my name is Maria Carmen, and I have something important to tell you. I know you've probably heard these types of success stories before and are a little skeptical, but I'm telling you this is true and can really happen for you. Ten years ago, after my divorce, I needed to find a way to support myself. I was one of those individuals that never went to college or had a trade skill, so there weren't a lot of job choices for me.

What was I to do? I started looking into entry level jobs that didn't require specialized training or skills. Unfortunately, I wasn't keen on the idea of working at a fast food restaurant for minimum wage with limited potential for advancement or better pay. Then I learned about house cleaning from a friend of mine. She used house cleaning as a way to supplement their family income. However, I realized the potential to grow this into something more.

So I started taking on a few residential cleaning jobs, getting my name out there and increasing my client list. I took the time to do some research and found a way to offer some specialized services that got me paid a little extra. Before I knew it, my client list was growing beyond what I could do by myself. So I started hiring employees.

Then I realized the importance of branching out and started to take on commercial contracts. Commercial cleaning turned out to be even more beneficial to my income than residential cleaning.

Not only was I able to support myself with this work, but I was able to grow and thrive. Today, I have a company of my own with 22 employees. We take on both residential and commercial cleaning contracts. My income has grown to over $250,000 a year now. I never dreamed a simple job to help pay the bills would grow into this, but it has. It takes a little bit of work, but the benefits are there to be had i

An Excellent How-To Guide

Have you always dreamed of putting your excellent work ethic to use by starting your very own cleaning business, but donât know where to start? Then look no further, because Maria Carmen is ready to share her ten years of experience in the cleaning industry with you. Carmenâs hopes in writing this book are that it will show you how to achieve the financial freedom and independence youâve been yearning for.

After a devastating divorce, Carmen needed to find a way to support herself, and fast. Never having gone to college and with no trade skills to speak of, the depressing idea of working in a fast-food restaurant seemed to be looming closer everyday. Then a friend of Carmenâs told her about house cleaning, and Carmen decided to give it a try. Within no time, she began to quickly gain repeat clients and her reputation as an excellent cleaner spread. Before she knew it, she was so overwhelmed with business that she had to hire employees. Today, Carmen owns her own cleaning company with twenty-two employees. Not only has she been supporting herself through her cleaning business, but the confidence she has gained from learning how to be a successful entrepreneur has been invaluable.

Interesting book....

Title: The Chameleon

Subtitle: Life-Changing Wisdom for Anyone Who has a Personality or Knows Someone Who Does

Author: Merrick Rosenberg

Narrator: Allyson Briggs, Merrick Rosenberg

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 6 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-26-17

Publisher: Merrick Rosenberg

Genres: Business, Career Skills

Publisher's Summary:

Imagine what it would be like to understand the actions and motivations of others - and to know how to apply such knowledge to be a more effective leader, teacher, coach, or salesperson - or even a better partner, or parent. The Chameleon, by Merrick Rosenberg, a fun, easy-to-understand listen, teaches powerful lessons about gaining deeper self-awareness, maximizing personal strengths, and empowering others around you. The Chameleon contains 22 fables based on the Eagle, Parrot, Dove, and Owl personality styles Rosenberg introduced in his first book, Taking Flight!

Guided by an all-knowing chameleon, the characters help listeners gain meaningful insights into understanding themselves and others.

The Introduction fable provides an overview of the four personality styles. The fables chronicle the bird's interactions over a one-year period and are followed by a "Chameleon Wisdom" section which expands on the fable's lessons and provides practical applications and scenarios of the story's moral. These deeper insights include examples of how to employ the styles to increase effectiveness at work, deepen personal relationships, parent with compassion, and generally live a more fulfilling life.

Four Stars

Good book

A novel but effective approach

When I agreed to write an honest review in exchange for a copy of Merrick Rosenberg's "The Chameleon" I had no idea what to expect. Upon glancing at it I became aware that it had to do with personality types and how people of different types can learn to work effectively. At first I was a bit skeptical of the approach taken by the author. The book consists of a series of "fables," vignettes that feature four different species of birds, each of which represents a personality type. The first bird is Ivory the parrot. She is fun-loving, sociable, and lives in the moment. At the opposite extreme is Carl the owl, who is scheduled and organized and seemingly does everything by the book. These two are like oil and water, in that Carl cannot abide Ivory's almost total lack of a schedule and her unwillingness to follow instructions to the letter. Dee, the eagle, is the broad-picture person. Like Carl, she wants things done her way, but unlike Carl, she is not detail oriented but instead is often grandiose. Finally, Simon the dove is kindhearted and others-centered, concerned with the welfare of those around him. Along with these four birds are two chameleons, Xenia, the teacher, and her student, Xandu. From time to time they step into the conflicts that arise between these birds and impart understanding of how these birds can solve their conflicts by better understanding each other.

Altogether there are some 20 fables, classified by seasons of the year. At first I wasn't sure that the author would be able to impart any really serious insight through this approach. But as I read through a few of them I began to see how cleverly Rosenberg has woven in the lessons he wants to impart. And before long I started recognizing myself and others in the interactions between these birds.

Title: Get to the Point!

Subtitle: Sharpen Your Message and Make Your Words Matter

Author: Joel Schwartzberg

Narrator: Jeff Hoyt

Format: Unabridged

Length: 1 hr and 53 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-19-17

Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes

Genres: Business, Career Skills

Publisher's Summary:

In Joel's Schwartzberg's 10-plus years as a strategic communications trainer, the biggest obstacle he's come across - one that connects directly to nervousness, stammering, rambling, and epic fail - is that most speakers and writers don't have a point. They typically have just a title, a theme, a topic, an idea, an assertion, a catchphrase, or even something much less.

A point is something more. It's a contention you can propose, argue, defend, illustrate, and prove. A point offers a position of potential value. "Global warming is real" is not a point. "Scientific evidence shows that global warming is a real, human-generated problem that will have a devastating environmental and financial impact" is a point. When we have a point, our influence snaps into place. We communicate belief, conviction, and urgency. This book shows you how to identify your point, leverage it, stick to it, and sell it and how to train others to identify and successfully make their own points.

Members Reviews:

Does what it says on the box!

As a person with an ever growing list of "must read" books, this book rose to the top of the list as a "listen to this first". This book is packed with practical and powerful tips, techniques and strategies to make and communicate your point like a pro.

One of the best books I've listened to this year. I'm now ordering a few copies to give to my team.

Title: Summary: Pre-Suasion: A Revolutionary Way to Influence and Persuade by Robert Cialdini

Author: Billionaire Mind Publishing 30 Minutes Flip

Narrator: Earl Hall

Format: Unabridged

Length: 51 mins

Language: English

Release date: 05-01-17

Publisher: Billionaire Mind Publishing

Ratings: 1 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Business, Career Skills

Publisher's Summary:

Are you struggling to make sales? Are you failing at your pitches? If then, you're probably not doing the Pre-Suasion right.

Robert Cialdini is the New York Times best-selling author of Influence, and now he is back with Pre-Suasion, which is an insightful, timeless book that has already garnered many positive reviews.

Pre-Suasion will prepare you on how to be an excellent persuader that can make your targeted audience go "yes". It is the key moment before the actual message is being delivered that prepares people to be receptive to the message. And that crucial moment, the small window of time is known as Pre-Suasion.

This book is not just about what you do before delivering the message, which is equally, if not more important than persuasion itself. It's also about recognizing that opportunity before the actual message and seizing it. As Robert Cialdini says, altering a listener's belief is not necessary, but redirecting the audience's focus of attention before a relevant action is. Be prepared to be mind-blown by the lessons of this book.

Note: This is a summary of the book and not the actual book.

Members Reviews:

Bring Your Sales Game to the Next Level

Having great selling skills can take you a long way in the business world. However, many salesmen are constantly making the same mistakes over and over again. This book eliminates the fluff and gives a good summary of Pre-Suasion which will give you easy to understand tips and lessons to help improve your skills to the next level.

Not really worth it

This booklet is not worth the $9.49 I paid for it. There are a lot of awkward phrases, grammar mistakes and poor typesetting. A company called Billionaire Mind Publishing should live up to the image they are trying to convey. I would rather spend the additional money required for the full book.

Great piece of work

Great piece of work ... covers all the bases in setting the stage for effective influence. Solid foundation for personal development or guiding the development of others who rely on influence to fulfill their goals and ambitions ... and who doesn't?

I recommend this book for anyone wanting to take the next ...

Being in the competitive medical sales industry, I'm always looking for ways to improve my performance and attract new customers. This book caught my attention, and must admit that I was surprised at how effective the methods discussed can be utilized in the real world. As a businessman I'm always wanting to look for new and fresh ideas, and with this 30 minute short read, I recommend this book for anyone wanting to take the next step in their professional or personal life. Easy to read. Highly recommend.

Very informative!

For me this was a very good read, specially since I didn't know what pre-suasion concept is so I was very curious. Now I do - thanks to this quick and very informative read. I am very happy with this purchase.
