Book excerpt: The Bottom Line is the book that tells you how to become successful in life regardless of education level or how much you've messed up in the past. It helps readers develop the elemental skills of business, leadership, and life. This book is for: ▪ The high-powered executive made redundant by pandemic-inspired cost-cutting, now seeking a refresher course in what made her successful in the first place. ▪ The unemployed teen who aspires to become a wealthy entrepreneur but has no idea where to start. ▪ The recent graduate who just can't seem to find a job in the toughest employment climate in decades. ▪ The burnt-out manager who realized, during the lockdown, that she's dying to change careers, but who is overwhelmed by the challenge of starting over. Author Michael Contento knows it's possible for them, and you, to become successful because his story is less likely than anyone's. He didn't go to a fancy school. In fact, he didn't even finish high school. And yet, as the CEO of a fast-growing managed-services IT firm and a director on the national board of Big Brothers Big Sisters Canada, among many other ventures, he's successful by any measure. How did Michael go from being a problem for the boss, to running things for the boss, to being the boss, to owning the holding company that hired the boss? He followed a set of basic principles that can be used by anyone to achieve success. At the heart of this method is the concept of D2: Deliver simplicity, drive growth. Once you're done this book, D2 will guide every business interaction you have. But deliver simplicity isn't the only imperative required to achieve success. Among the fundamental principles that this book will deliver to readers are such insights as: Your time is too valuable for Game of Thrones. 2. Don't say "can't" to the boss. 3. Take the word "kiss-ass" out of your vocabulary. 4. Communicating is about what they hear, not what you say. 5. There's no such thing as a dead-end job. Finding success difficult to achieve in business, leadership and life? The problem isn't that you went to the wrong school or that you're not smart enough. Instead, the bottom line is that you need The Bottom Line-the primary elements required to win supporters, communicate your ideas, overcome obstacles and sell deals. Read this book-and you'll learn to deliver simplicity, achieve success, and never quit. For more resources and supplementary materials related to the book, visit deliversimplicity.ca.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offers a broad view of leadership and shareholder value based on multiple business disciplines In Why the Bottom Line Isn't! authors Dave Ulrich and Norm Smallwood argue that sustainable shareholder value comes increasingly from assets not accounted for on an organization's balance sheet. These assets include a company's reputation, its ability to attract talent, and its ability to react quickly to new opportunities in the marketplace. Why the Bottom Line Isn't! harnesses research from a number of disciplines including human resources, finance, and leadership to establish a hierarchy of such intangibles. The authors extrapolate from these intangibles to establish leadership tools that will help create sustainable shareholder value. The book offers a broad, expansive perspective on leadership while eschewing convoluted theory for concrete practice.

Book excerpt: The undergirding of The Wrong Bottom Line is that people not profit are the key to success regardless of the business or organization. And if the people concerns are addressed, the profit line will improve along with the people. While this is not a new concept and has been talked and written about, a review of the majority of organizations finds little change. The Wrong Bottom Line provides uncomplicated activities that can be done by anyone, and that will make dramatic improvement in the attitude, success and production of the people in any organization. This book covers skills and qualities that actually bring about positive change. Dr. Rummler explains, uses examples and provides exercises that have proven to work regardless of size or location: small groups to organizations of hundreds. Instead of going to expensive workshops and purchasing costly services, spend a few minutes with this book and in doing what is recommended; not only will you save, you will make money. More importantly, you will build a people base that will last.

This book was released on 2013-01-09 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maximizing the Triple Bottom Line through Spiritual Leadership draws on the emerging fields of workplace spirituality and spiritual leadership to teach leaders and their constituencies how to develop business models that address issues of ethical leadership, employee well-being, sustainability, and social responsibility without sacrificing profitability, growth, and other metrics of performance excellence. While this text identifies and discusses the characteristics necessary to be a leader, its major focus is on leadership—engaging stakeholders and enabling groups of people to work together in the most meaningful ways. The authors offer real-world examples of for-profit and non-profit organizations that have spiritual leaders and which have implemented organizational spiritual leadership. These cases are based on over ten years of research, supported by the International Institute of Spiritual Leadership, that demonstrates the value of the Spiritual Leadership Balanced Scorecard Business Model presented in the book. "Pracademic" in its orientation, the book presents a general process and tools for implementing the model.

This book was released on 2016-01-27 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many leaders need to win (and thus humiliate others), need to get their way (and thus threaten others), need to be seen in a positive light (and thus blame others), need to give good news to those they report to (and thus intimidate others into fudging reports when necessary), and need to be seen as powerful in every setting (and thus speak condescendingly to others). Our Character at Work demonstrates that leadership is more effective and ethical when done in servant-led ways. How do you become a servant leader? It begins with your heart… Put everything you have into the care of your heart -- the hidden, causative, motivational you -- for everything you do flows from it. It is the real source of your outward life. It determines what your life amounts to. (Proverbs 4:23, author's paraphrase) Our Character at Work leads you on a personal journey, guiding you to an interior renovation of heart and soul that produces genuine and consistent servant leaders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trust is at the root of all positive relationships. This accessible and empowering book teaches how to form an inner circle of trusted confidants in your workplace and at home that will allow you to live a more peaceful and more effective life, reduce stress, and better deal with negative emotions. Building trust is crucial for effective leadership, and trusting others is a necessary part of working with others. But knowing whom to trust—and whom not to trust—eludes many people. A surprising number of people report that being betrayed by someone in their "inner circle" either at work or in their personal lives is one of the most devastating things they have endured. Lack of trust is also expensive in that it costs companies money to surveil employees; and in our personal lives, if we live with people we cannot trust, we expend needless amounts of energy protecting ourselves from these untrustworthy people. How do we increase trust, bounce back from betrayal, and form alliances and positive relationships with those who ARE trustworthy? This book provides a unique examination of trust and its often-overlooked importance to our work and personal lives. It identifies the characteristics of a trusting relationship, considers the decision-making process that people should make before granting individuals admission to their own "inner circle," and teaches how to tell the "good guys" from the "bad guys" in our work environments and life in general. This revised and updated edition contains new information on the negative mental and physical aspects of telling lies; how to better manage our emotions, which allows us to become "better guys" ourselves; strategies for building more trusting relationships in our families; and how trust works—and doesn't work—online in the Internet age. It also includes a useful "Family Board Meeting" tool for having family meetings in a way that encourages honest and open dialogue between family members regardless of age or family structure.

Book excerpt: In The Coming Tsunami, pastor and cultural scholar Dr. Jim Denison addresses the gravest threat Christians in America have ever faced—four cultural tidal waves threatening to submerge Christians in America and the biblical morality they proclaim. Through proactive, biblical steps, he helps us redeem these challenges so that we can live the way Jesus calls us to live. This book is a warning sign. The coming cultural tsunami is the gravest threat Christians in America have ever faced. Caused by four cultural “earthquakes,” the cultural acceptance of four specific ideologies has seismically shifted our world. With the rise of a “post-truth” culture, the expansion of the sexual revolution, the attraction of Critical Theory, and the advance of secular religion, Christians are increasingly labeled as intolerant, irrelevant, oppressive, and dangerous—the antithesis of the life Jesus calls Christians to live. These tidal waves are threatening to submerge Christians in America and the biblical morality they proclaim. And the ultimate repercussions of these issues—the coming tsunami—have yet to be fully experienced. In The Coming Tsunami, pastor and cultural scholar Dr. Jim Denison of the Denison Forum: assesses how our current culture came to be, identifies the enormous danger these cultural quakes represent, explores their consequences for evangelicals and our larger culture, and offers proactive, biblical steps to redeem these challenges as opportunities for God's word and grace. The coming cultural tsunami will greatly impact Christians in the coming years. It will undoubtedly influence and affect your children and grandchildren. However, unlike tsunamis in nature, which cannot be stopped once they have been created, it's not too late to stop the moral tsunamis of our day. But Christians must act now. The rain is falling.

Book excerpt: "Payal has beautifully defined success as to ‘reach where you want from where you are.’ She emphasizes rightful karma or focused execution to keep you on the right path so that you are always walking in a direction that takes you toward your goal." Dr. Arun Arora, CEO, EDVANCE "This book is full of practical tips on how to become a successful leader and the best part is Payal has narrated it wonderfully with appropriate fables and relevant case studies.... Her entrepreneurial attitude and impactful wisdom are commendable and evident in the IPL series." Swapna Hari, Director, Cognizant "This book by Payal Nanjiani will join the best of business literature for emphasizing attitude as our biggest asset." Swami Mukundananda of Jagadguru Kripaluji Yog (JKYog) Institute Gathering insights from 20 years of the author’s executive coaching in the United States and abroad, this book presents 21 mindfulness strategies for business leaders, corporate heads, entrepreneurs, and professionals. During the author’s coaching sessions for business and corporate leaders and her trainings at corporations, mid-sized businesses, small businesses, and start-up organizations, she discovered that there is a wide gap between those who achieve success and those who do not. This gap indicates that there is still something significant missing in the business world. Success Is Within fills this gap by encouraging business professionals to "mind the mind." Written in accessible, easy-to-digest language, and targeted towards busy US business professionals who long for thought-leadership to boost their success, the book argues that success depends on changing one’s mindset in key ways. Each chapter focuses on one way to transform one’s mindset to achieve success. The union of these 21 ways provides a uniquely comprehensive program for leadership success in business and corporate careers. Drawing from a blend of Eastern and Western wisdom, the book blends true-life storytelling about the challenges of actual business professionals with insights drawn from traditional parables from classic "wisdom books" to inspire readers to think-through how to transform their mindsets. Ultimately, the book helps magnify one’s inner power: the power of one’s mind. The book calls on business professionals to unleash their "inner leader." When they recognize the power of their inner leader, they will become unstoppable.
