Humans have a natural instinct to help others.
Imagine walking up to a stranger on the subway and asking them for their seat. What about asking a random person on the street if you could borrow their phone? If the idea makes you squeamish, you're not alone--social psychologists have found that doing these very things makes most of us almost unbearably uncomfortable.
But here's the funny thing: even though we hate to ask for help, most people are wired to be helpful. And that's a good thing, because every day in the modern, uber-collaborative workplace, we all need to know when and how to call in the cavalry.
However, asking people for help isn't intuitive; in fact, a lot of our instincts are wrong. As a result, we do a poor job of calling in the reinforcements we need, leaving confused or even offended colleagues in our wake.
This pragmatic book explains how to get it right. With humor, insight, and engaging storytelling, Heidi Grant, PhD, describes how to elicit helpful behavior from your friends, family, and colleagues--in a way that leaves them feeling genuinely happy to lend a hand.
Whether you're a first-time manager or a seasoned leader, getting people to pitch in is what leadership is. Fortunately, people have a natural instinct to help other human beings; you just need to know how to channel this urge into what it is you specifically need them to do. It's not manipulation. It's just management.
Do you project as though everything is under control but on the inside you are barely keeping your head above water?That each day is a constant struggle of competing priorities? Rather than juggling the two worlds of career and life, what if you could create a third alternative, your own, new, evolved world: one that works for you rather than against you? Breaking the Gender Code not only unpacks why women feel the constant pressure to keep so many balls in the air but also where this pressure comes from. In the process, this comprehensive and easy-to-read book:
- reveals how the Gender Code unintentionally creates pressures, holds women back and limits potential- dismantles the outdated motherhood, superwoman and having-it-all myths- puts the Gender Code under the microscope and scrutinises the equation of productivity + business = worthiness- provides tools and strategies to create individual solutions for your unique context- shares tried-and-tested 'pressure releases'.
Breaking the Gender Code encourages you to realise your contribution is highly valuable in all your roles, and the skills and capabilities strengthened by being a parent and caring for others is a powerful adaptive leadership and career asset. You don't need more of anything. By using what you already have, you are able to get what you actually want.
In today's revolutionary market the classic sales model is both out of date and dangerous.
Often it seems like you don't just have to run tokeep up, you have to continually sprint, market and discount.
That's exhausting, but - there is another way.
The best and most successful Organisations don't follow this chaotic strategy: they slow down and design world class solutions that optimize sales for the long term.
This is the approach we call 'Slow Selling'.

Effective selling has never been easy, but now it's harder than ever. This more stringent world calls for much simpler and more customer focused sales tools and processes, and 'Slow Selling' delivers exactly that. Hyrum Smith, Co-Founder and former CEO of Franklin Covey
Working relentlessly to deliver the very finest service has led to a consistent and continual growth in sales. It is this exact approach that is advocated and explained in the 'Slow Selling' process. I thoroughly recommend this book ' Jay Wright, CEO Virgin Wines
Sellers need to act in a slower, more considered and sophisticated way: they need to add value to the buyer at every step. This is exactly the message and tools delivered by 'Slow Selling'. Grant Leboff, Bestselling author of 'Sticky Marketing'
"Slow Selling is a breath of fresh air. Today's traditional sales approaches are broken, outdated and obsolete. Guy and Brendan offer a breakthrough approach that if implemented will revolutionize how selling should be done in the 21st century. I highly recommend this book. David M. R. Covey, CEO of SMCOV & co-author of Trap Tales

Government regulations are increasingly holding back economic development, inflating the prices of most consumer goods, and reducing our freedoms.
Dale W. Cox, and his wife, LeAnne, know that firsthand as they have operated businesses of various types throughout the years.
What theyve found is rules and regulations that constantly change and get more complicated, which hurts their businesses, their family, and their customers. In this book, Cox gives a detailed account of how these regulations make it more expensive to do business, boost inflation, discourage innovation, curb economic growth, and reduce personal and business freedom.
The examples of how regulations affect us from a cost and choice standpoint are illustrations that everyone can relate to, including buying a gallon of milk or a car.
Coxs goal is to educate as many people as he can so we can move forward as a nation to restore freedom by supporting elected officials and others willing to do something about it.
Its time to demand that we keep the fruits of our labor, which starts with telling meddling regulators to Get the Heck Out of Our Way
