Members Reviews:

Awful

I have no idea how he got good ratings from the other reviews. The only thing I can think of is he had his family and/or friends write a review for this book. Note, Jeffrey COHEN left the first review. This book is absolutely terrible. 150 pages of common sense. He brags an awful lot for such mediocre information. He claims he lost his wife because he was working too much. Now it seems as if he is writing this to get back at her, or prove how successful he is with this business.

Randy has a company Christmas party every year around the holidays. He claims that some of the gifts/give-aways include round trip Southwest Airlines tickets and flat screen tv's. But his employees aren't excited about these gifts. At least not as much as they are about the "Randy Rap" that he does every year for them.

This book is an absolute joke. I am having a garage sale this weekend and thought about selling it for $.25 but honestly I don't want to rip anyone off.

Quick Read, lasting inspiration

Ticket To the Limit is a classic American success story that unfolds through the experiences of Randy Cohen as he built a company on keen instincts and raw passion. We have all had moments of inspiration, outlandish ideas, and seemingly crazy "what-if" thoughts--Mr. Cohen succeeds because he acts when others hesitate.

Publisher's Summary:

How to get a good reputationdeserved or not!and why we care what other people think.

Why does a fish only bite another fish if no one else is watching? Why do people overshare online? Why do some people meet trivial insults with extreme violence? Why do so many gods have multiple eyes? In People Will Talk, science writer John Whitfield shows how reputation helps answer all of these questions, and more.

What is the secret to getting a good reputation? Unfortunately, there's more to reputation than being a good person or being good at what you do. Your reputation belongs to other people, and it's created by what they say about you behind your back. You have a good reputation only if you have a strong social networka large and close-knit network of friends, family, and alliesto spread good news about you and shout down ugly rumors. If youve ever wondered why we care about the lives of celebrities, why young men publicly upload to the Internet pictures of themselves engaged in drunken or dangerous antics, how to make the "honor system" a little more widely honored, how to keep politicians honest, or what keeps gossip going, reputation will give you a clue.

Almost from the moment we are born, we are trying to work out whom we can trust and trying to make others think the best of us. We carry on doing so throughout life, even when we don't realize it, every time we meet another person in business, friendship, or romance; every time we read celebrity gossip; and every time we tweak our Facebook profiles.

Whether youre buying a car or selling one, looking for a job or hiring, asking someone out on a date or deciding whether to accept the invitation, reputation matters. Listen to People Will Talk and discover how to polish your own reputation, understand what you hear about others, and make the most of both.

Members Reviews:

Boring

I think this book deserves a poor reputation! While it starts off with an interesting premise, it devolves into a boing compendium of obscure research results. It just lists one study after another, what was studied and what was found, and then somehow this is supposed to reveal the complexities of "reputation." One study is on macaws, another on 16 months old children, another about apes, etc. I'm not even sure how the behavior of macaws (without language) reveals much about human behavior (using language, esp. as in "people will talk."). If you understand research studies, they are usually very specific, small sampled, artificial lab conditions with undergraduate college students, which are then miraculously transformed into "deep" generalizations about the entire human race.

"People Will Talk" is all trees no forest. Skip it.

great book!

Very thoughtful, thoroughly written, describes all aspects of the reputation subject. Worth reading or listening!

Not for me

this book as it says literally about the science side of the story. I thought it was going to cover the business aspect of reputation.

I'm not saying I didn't learn anything I just think this book is for researchers more than the average reader.

Very informative -- may be boring for some

Would you consider the audio edition of People Will Talk to be better than the print version?

I really enjoyed this book, but I'm biased because I'm an evolutionary psychologist.

Title: The Truth Advantage

Subtitle: The 7 Keys to a Happy and Fulfilling Life

Author: Lis Wiehl, Bruce Littlefield

Narrator: Lis Wiehl

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 59 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-03-12

Publisher: Oasis Audio

Genres: Business, Career Skills

Publisher's Summary:

Drawing on the surprising results of the authors American Truth Survey, The Truth Advantage is the ultimate guide to putting your mind at rest, getting your life back on track, and making the most of every personal, social, and business relationship. Studies have shown that most of us lie once or twice a day and deceive at least thirty people every week. We pay a high price for our lies - the mental energy it takes to concoct and remember them, the emotional stress caused by fear of getting caught in one, and the damage to our reputation when we do get caught - but it doesnt have to be that way. In The Truth Advantage, prominent trial attorney and Fox News Channel legal analyst Lis Wiehl reveals that telling the truth is easier than lying. Telling the truth makes other people respect you and encourages them to be truthful with you. Honesty forges deep, powerful, and life-changing bonds that make every part of your life happier and more rewarding. In this transformative guide, Lis Wiehl helps you become more forthright, less evasive, and true to your word. Using straightforward techniques that have helped her achieve positive results using truth in her own life as a mother and TV personality, she introduces The 7 Keys to a Happy and Fulfilling Life. The Truth Advantage shows you how to become someone youd like to have as a friend, as a colleague, and as a partner by discovering how to listen, get your facts straight, and choose the right time to deliver important truths. Nobodys perfect, but for many people, the most difficult kind of truth telling is the admission that you have done something wrong or made a mistake. Citing examples from everyday life to very public scandals, Wiehl argues that honesty is always the best policy and gives practical advice on how to respond when confronted with your own misdeeds. Some people say hurtful things in public and excuse themselves by claiming theyre just being honest. Wiehl shares her time tested ground rules for addressing hard truths with the people you care about with the least amount of pain and the best chance of a positive outcome. Its one thing to be truthful yourself - quite another to know whether others are being truthful with you. Using her Lie Detector Test, Wiehl gives you the way to determine whether youre being told the truth - not for the triumph of catching someone in a lie but to encourage greater honesty among friends, family, and coworkers. This one-of-a-kind audio book will help you become the best, most powerful person you can be by using one uncomplicated tool - the Truth Advantage.

Appalling audio quality

While the content made sense, the book sounded like it was recorded using a mobile phone in a garage. Very disappointing.

Excellent primer for converting to eLearning

We're converting a ILT program to eLearning and I started at Amazon to do my research. I ran across this book and took a stab at it - the authors are reputable experts in the field and I thought 'why not'?

Great decision!

This book was well-written, easy to grok, simply presented and has long legs for any person or organization looking to convert from ILT -> virtual. The "rules" were easy to interpret and use in my particular case and were full of steps-based suggestions, most of which have already proven to be valuable in working our conversion approach. I immediately went and bought a new whiteboard and our small team is already making big progress!

Thanks to the authors Matt and Treion for putting together such an easy and useful book!

BTW - I devoured it in less than a day. Buying this book is a no brainer.

Five Stars

Very informative and easy to read. Great info!

A must read for anyone using virtual classrooms

As I read "The Learning eXPOLSION", I found myself highlighting parts, using sticky notes to mark pages and mentally agreeing with the information in the book. My favorite chapters are "The Rule of Overcoming Bias" - how to address and overcome prejudice against virtual classrooms - with really life examples and what to say to leaders and "The Rule of Personal Practice" - especially the list of common technical watch-outs. There are lots of great tips, links and examples throughout the book. The website ([...]) has all the action plans for download. This book is worth adding to your library. I plan to purchase it for my Kindle when that version comes out!

Great Jumping Off Point for 21st Century Learning

I was loaned a review copy of The Learning eXplosion from the author and I was really excited to read what was written not only because I know the author and am intimately familiar with FranklinCovey, but also because I'm very interested in both Technology and Education in general and felt that an exploration of Online and Technology based learning is a very intriguing topic well worth exploring.

The book is laid out vey well and feels very conversational. From the first page to the last, I felt like I was engaged in a discussion with the authors.

More targeted training

I like how Made for Success products are sold. There is less overlap with their products, also you get a larger sampling of ideas and presenters then if you bought a single author product.

The most valuable part of this program for me was the 3 disks on inter gender communication.

Needs more enthusiasm

The context of the book is good, but I couldn't get myself to listen to it everyday. The narrator needs more enthusiasm... something to make you want more!
