نویسندگان: Sabrina Jeffries خلاصه: Charlotte Harris, headmistress and owner of Mrs. Harris’s School for Young Ladies,sat at her desk and reread—twice—the pleading letter she had composed to CousinMichael, her anonymous benefactor.Then she tore it up. What was the point of writing him, when every letter she sent tohis solicitor was returned unopened?She wiped her clammy hands on her skirt. He had to know what desperate straits theschool was in—he knew everything. And until six months ago, he had always toldher everything he knew. But after she had pressed him so hard about his identity, hehad ended their correspondence. There had not been a word from him since.The hollow fear that gripped her so often these days made her stomach clench. Allright, so perhaps he had good reason to be angry at her. She had agreed not to presshim about his anonymity.Still, how could he abandon them after all this time? He had been part of the school‟sinception fourteen years ago. Indeed, without him there would be no school. Shewould probably still be languishing as a teacher at the school in Chelsea, dreamingof the day when she could open her own institution governed by her own curriculumand her own rules.Now their idiot neighbor, Mr. Pritchard, was about to sweep it all away. He wasrumored to be on the verge of selling Rockhurst, the estate adjoining the school‟sproperty, to the owner of a racecourse in Yorkshire. She could just see it—roughmen flocking to bet on the races, spilling onto the school‟s lawn and accosting hergirls.How could Cousin Michael stand by and let it happen? He owned this property. Didhe not care if she was forced out?

Flip: How to Turn Everything You Know on Its Head--and Succeed Beyond Your Wildest Imaginings - PDF
نویسندگان: Peter Sheahan خلاصه: Placing emphasis on flexible, counter-intuitive decision-making, a pioneering young management guru calls for a brand new way of doing business in the current sticky economic conditions, where conventional wisdom fails. Why is Microsoft turning a blind eye to software piracy in China? Why has Toyota capped production of the best-selling Scion? Why did Rupert Murdoch risk $580 million on MySpace? "Business today requires new perspectives," argues Peter Sheahan, one of the youngest and fastest-rising international business consultants. In Flip he shows that to succeed in turbulent financial times, companies must distinguish themselves by finding a new way of doing business, one that systematically re-examines every single aspect of running a company. Flip reveals what the superstars of modern business have in common: an ability to "flip" - to think counter-intuitively and then act boldly, with no regard for business-as-usual conventions. The only rule: there are no rules. Those who heed Sheahan's proven advice will be well placed to join other "flipstars" including entrepreneurs Richard Branson and Rupert Murdoch, and such visionary companies as Google, Toyota and Apple. By learning to "flip" you can future-proof your organisation and your career while those who run with the pack and stick to the business school curriculum will find themselves perilously left behind. Presenting perennial wisdom in a fresh new way, Sheahan shows today's decision makers how to embrace change and successfully operate in a challenging economy that runs on new ideas.

When Someone You Love is Wiccan - PDF
نویسندگان: Carl McColman خلاصه: At last, a book that explains Pagan spirituality to non-Pagans in a balanced, accessible way, while acknowledging the natural anxiety many of them may feel when confronted by a son, daughter, sibling, friend, or co-worker who suddenly proclaims, "I'm a Witch!"

Non-Pagans will appreciate this fair and responsible overview of one of the most mysterious-and misunderstood-modern spiritual paths.

It's Not Just Who You Know: Transform Your Life (and Your Organization) by Turning Colleagues and Contacts into Lasting, Genuine Relationships - PDF
نویسندگان: Tommy Spaulding خلاصه: In It’s Not Just Who You Know, Tommy Spaulding—the former CEO of Up With People—has written the new How to Win Friends and Influence People for the twenty-fist century. Success—in business and in life—is all about relationships. In this powerful guide to reaching out to others, Spaulding takes Dale Carnegie’s classic philosophy to the next level—how to create lasting relationships that go well beyond mere superficial contacts and “second floor” relationships. Tommy Spaulding learned at a very young age that he was not destined to be an academic star. He may have gotten a 4.0, but only if he added his high school and college GPAs together. The reason he found academics so challenging, he discovered later, is that Tommy is dyslexic. But his dyslexia didn’t hold him back—in fact, it helped him to develop the talents he did have. For Tommy is a natural leader; he realized early on that he had a unique ability to connect with others, whatever their age or background. As a teenager, he was given a copy of How to Win Friends and Influence People by his father, and it quickly became his bible. He became a national finalist for the DECA Entrepreneurial Business competition in high school, and ran successfully for senior class president. He went on to become the CEO of Up With People, one of the largest nonprofit international leadership organizations in the world. At every step, Tommy learned that the secret to getting ahead was reaching out for the support and insight and influence of others. None of us achieve great success alone. We need the help of other people. In this candid, revealing book, Tommy expands upon the principles that Dale Carnegie outlined 75 years ago, and shows us how to take them one step further to accomplish the impossible in our lives and careers. To invite others to be genuine partners in our lives and success, Tommy explains, you have to first be interested in other people. It’s not just who you know, or what they can do for you, but what you can do for them. Motives matter. Establishing a deeper connection is about authenticity, not manipulation. Reciprocity, not selfishness. Every relationship is a two-way street; we never know when a chance encounter can change the direction of our life. In the bestselling tradition of Dale Carnegie’s classic, It’s Not Just Who You Know shows how each and every one of us can use the power of netgiving—of helping others—to expand our world and achieve our goals, and make a difference in our job, our career, and our community.
