Title: Zilch: The Power of Zero in Business

Author: Nancy Lublin

Narrator: Nancy Lublin

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:42:00

Language: English

Release date: 07-28-10

Publisher: Ascent Audio

Genres: Business & Economics, Career Development

Summary:

'What we have to offer can be boiled down to one concept: the power of zero. We get more done with less of just about everything, from our people to our workplaces to our vendors. Zilch is what drives us to be more innovative, more passionate, more creative. So stop whining about your budget cuts and start asking yourself what you'd do if you had zilch. You'll be surprised just how powerful that is.'

After years of being told to emulate the corporate world, not-for-profit CEOs like Nancy Lublin now find the shoe on the other foot. Tough times have forced businesses to slash their headcount, marketing budgets, and other resources. Managers at small startups and Fortune 100 companies alike are now expected to do more with lessbut how?

No one is more qualified to answer that question than the leaders who always thrive on a shoestring.

Take Nancy Lublin, for instance. She learned firsthand how much you can accomplish with zilch (or close to it). As the founder of Dress for Success, which provides low-income women with interview suits and career development training, she turned a $5,000 inheritance into a global franchise. Then, as CEO of DoSomething.org, she helped turn a struggling startup into one of the largest and most successful youth volunteer groups in the world.

Now she draws on her experiences as well as interviews with other 'rock star' leaders of flourishing not-for-profits-including Wendy Kopp of Teach For America, Darell Hammond of KaBOOM!, Greg Baldwin of VolunteerMatch.org, and John Lilly of Mozilla. Their examples prove the power of zero in business by teaching us how to:

* Motivate and retain good people without offering huge financial incentives

* Use the power of bartering to leverage every asset and minimize your liabilities

* Create cherished brands without throwing money at studies and focus groups

* Market your goods or service without paying a penny

Lublin's tone is a unique mix of 'let's have some fun' and 'here's the straight dope.' Her expert advice will help any business or organization to get ahead through the power of zero.

Title: Patience with God: Faith for People Who Don't Like Religion (or Atheism)

Author: Frank Schaeffer

Narrator: Frank Schaeffer

Format: Unabridged

Length: 07:35:00

Language: English

Release date: 07-19-10

Publisher: Ascent Audio

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Atheism

Summary:

Frank Schaeffer has a problem with Dawkins, Hitchens, Harris, Dennett, and the rest of the New Atheiststhe self-anointed Brights. He also has a problem with the Rick Warrens and Tim LaHayes of the worldthe religious fundamentalists. The problem is that he doesnt see much of a difference between the two camps. As Schaeffer puts it, they often share the same fallacy: truth claims that reek of false certainties. I believe that there is an alternative that actually matches the way life is lived rather than how we usually talk about belief.

Sparing no one and nothing, including himself and his fiery evangelical past, and invoking subtleties too easily ignored by the pontificators, Schaeffer adds much-needed nuance to the existing religious conversation. I discovered from the emails Ive been inundated with since my memoir was published that there are more of us perplexed former (or currently) religiously inclined or religiously raised folks on a journey from past certainties to points unknown than Id been aware of. We want to have faith in God in spite of our bad experiences with religion, oppressive family relationships, and/or doubts and questions. We too worry that we have been hoodwinked by a fairy tale. I hope that this audio book will provide a meeting place for those of us who count ourselves among the scattered members of what Ill call the Church of Hopeful Uncertainty.
