Author:

Greg Donaldson

How is your book helping others?

On October 19, 1987, the world watched in disbelief as stock exchanges across the globe began to plummet. As he witnessed millions of dollars drain from the portfolios his small investment firm managed, Greg Donaldson was flooded with uncertainty. Within hours, everything he thought he knew about investing quickly faded into the darkness of “Black Monday.” But what he thought was the worst day of his professional life, unexpectedly became the greatest turning point of his career. During that fateful day, he received three phone calls that changed his life and ultimately the lives of his clients. The Hidden Power of Rising Dividends follows Greg on a dramatic quest guided by wisdom and faith, to find the true value of a stock, using a simple but powerful strategy that teaches others how invest for the future. Part memoir, part financial advice, this book is a treatise on values, ethics, leadership and investment expertise for regular folks who hope to secure their financial futures.

The Neurodiversity Edge: The Essential Guide to Embracing Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, and Other Neurological Differences for Any Organization

Book Cover Upload
Author:

Maureen Dunne

How is your book helping others?

Attempts to implement neuroinclusion at scale have overwhelmingly failed at the hands of overgeneralized “check the box” strategies that dive no deeper than superficial accommodation. Dr. Dunne exposes this fundamental misunderstanding and explains why outcomes range from uninspiring to disastrous for organizations while still failing to serve the legions of underemployed neurodivergent jobseekers with dignity, economic opportunity, and authentic inclusion.

The Neurodiversity Edge challenges this flawed paradigm and unveils a revolutionary new framework and practical roadmap to building an organizational culture fundamentally aligned with authentic neuroinclusion in the context of accelerating technological change. The result is a bold vision for a new values-driven approach that fosters inclusion and economic opportunity for the disproportionately unemployed neurodivergent population that benefit all with cognitive and experiential diversity as an essential driver of innovation.

The Modern Management Mentor

Author:

Christine Sandman Stone

How is your book helping others?

Companies modernized strategy – it's now agile, changes based on market conditions, measured often.
Companies modernized workforces – they're distributed, hybrid, global.

No one modernized managers, and managers are the key to pulling together strategy and teams to get results in this new modern workplace.
This book is 50+ tools created by a seasoned leader, and adapted and tested by a young millennial leader.
The tools are proven to be both lightweight and successful in helping managers deliver results and get the best from their people.

The hope is that this book specifically helps women and diverse managers – who are an under-tapped pool of leadership talent get into their roles, and build success immediately.

While the book will help all, diverse voices in leadership drive both profitability for companies, and improvements in policy in companies, countries, and the world.

Six Figures While You Sleep

Author:

Kate Toon

How is your book helping others?

I wrote this to help people stop exchanging their time for money, and instead build a lucrative, high-profit digital business doing what they know and love.

Inspired by my own experience of making millions through automated digital passive income products such as courses, digital downloads, memberships and masterminds, I’ve written it as a step-by-step guide on turning skills and services into one-to-many profitable products.

In it, I walk readers through positioning, processes, pricing and profile building, explaining the tech, the marketing, the sales tactics and how to keep customers coming back for more.

Creating passive income through digital products is an amazing way to earn a living. It’s given me freedom, community, a creative outlet and a nice lifestyle. But it does take work and patience. I believe anyone can achieve the entrepreneurial dream of making money in their sleep, and this book spills the secrets on exactly how.

From Tension to Transformation A Leader's Guide To Generative Change

Book Cover Upload
Author:

Janet M. Harvey

How is your book helping others?

Janet M. Harvey, the CEO of the innovative human development company inviteCHANGE, has trained global Fortune 500 leaders for nearly 30 years. She’s done so successfully using the innovative vehicle of Generative Change. As Harvey writes, she wants to “make your head hurt.” And indeed this book does just that as the Generative Change Journey to Generative Wholeness is now made available to a wider audience. It’s all about giving up your “expected identity” and harnessing the tension that results – so that “all of you” is brought to the fore. The book begins with “making it yours” (reflection as active process; fearless use of intuition); moves to Generative Wholeness (trust the unknown; “notice” to build resilience); pulling back for perspective; leadership dilemmas (be alert to autopilot mindset; be curious versus reactive).
And tension as a deliberate tool for solutions and judgment as one for inspiring wonder.
This important book is life- and business-changing.

The Resilience Plan: A Strategic Approach to Optimizing Your Work Performance and Mental Health

Book Cover Upload
Author:

Marie-Helene Pelletier PhD

How is your book helping others?

Leaders and business professionals handle grueling hours and exceed high expectations. They are undaunted by challenges and embrace opportunities for growth. They assume they are resilient.

But given enough demands, anyone can burn out. This makes logical sense, yet you likely still think it could never be you. You are fabulous and at risk of burning out.

Resilience is not an innate character trait. Whether you’re in a leadership role or working as part of a team, you need to implement strategies that build and nurture resilience. You need a resilience plan.

I draw on experience from my clinical practice and extensive knowledge in therapeutics and business practices to explore how resilience is the best defense against burnout and how everyone can build it in themselves―not with a one-size-fits-all plan but with strategies to help you create a custom plan.

The Middle Matters: A Toolkit for Middle Managers

Book Cover Upload
Author:

Jeff Sigel

How is your book helping others?

Middle management is perhaps the most underappreciated place in the corporate hierarchy. Yet, it’s where most people spend most of their careers. It’s also, arguably, where the most important work happens. No vision or strategy handed down from leaders at the top can come to life in the actions of thousands of employees without passing through the hands of underappreciated middle managers. There’s no way around it.

And yet, most middle managers are promoted into their roles with little guidance or training on how to manage up, lead teams, and influence organizations. Having never done these, managers are left feeling profoundly uncomfortable. This book seeks to close that gap and empower middle leaders with a toolkit of skills that will help them find greater success and satisfaction while driving results for the companies they support.

Robert Danna

How is your book helping others?

"This memoir could be used as a textbook to write the stories of one’s life as a legacy for children and grandchildren. Every person needs to read the Secular Humanist 10 Commandments/Committments, this is the blueprint for a principled, happy life, with respect for another with differences embraced. Just what the world needs!" Five Star Review in Amazon
"As an early millennial, the ideas in this book forced me to think about my own life, what I want to be known for, and how I want to be remembered. It encourages living by a set of values, acknowledges that failure is inevitable, and places emphasis on learning and continuous growth and curiosity. I much appreciated the theme of doing good for others and expecting nothing in return. This is the true definition of integrity and should encourage us all to do more and do better, simply because it’s the right thing to do. I look forward to referencing the ideas in this book as I embark on my own journey." Five Star review in Amazon.

How is your book helping others?

Janet M. Harvey, the CEO of the innovative human development company inviteCHANGE, has trained global Fortune 500 leaders for nearly 30 years. She’s done so successfully using the innovative vehicle of Generative Change. As Harvey writes, she wants to “make your head hurt.” And indeed this book does just that as the Generative Change Journey to Generative Wholeness is now made available to a wider audience. It’s all about giving up your “expected identity” and harnessing the tension that results – so that “all of you” is brought to the fore. The book begins with “making it yours” (reflection as active process; fearless use of intuition); moves to Generative Wholeness (trust the unknown; “notice” to build resilience); pulling back for perspective; leadership dilemmas (be alert to autopilot mindset; be curious versus reactive).
And tension as a deliberate tool for solutions and judgment as one for inspiring wonder.
This important book is life- and business-changing.
