    7 in stock

    Book SynopsisDo you feel confident you are a leader with influence? You may be surprised to discover you are not as influential as you think you are. Your team is only as strong as your influence, and many leaders today are mistaken about what it means to be influential. An outdated influence paradigm, along with technological devices and distractions, is making it increasingly challenging for leaders to reach those they need to influence in order to be successful. In fact, many leaders are unwillingly and unknowingly sabotaging themselves and their influence. In her thought-provoking Influence Redefined , Stacey Hanke introduces her powerful Influence Model, a step-by-step method for improving communication and producing the ideal type of influence -- one that moves people to action long after an interaction is over. She dispels the most common influence myths and instructs leaders on how to stop sabotaging themselves in order to leave a positive, lasting impression. Using a results-based definition of influence for individuals and organisations, Hanke successfully shows leaders how they can develop influence as a skill through self-awareness, consistency, a positive reputation, adaptability, and impact. With insights from dozens of executives and business leaders, as well as practical how-tos and action steps, this book will help leaders multiply and expand their influence every day, Monday to Monday (R). Through Stacey Hanke, Inc, the author has provided keynotes, mentoring and training on communicating with influence to thousands of leaders across industries. She has appeared in the New York Times and SmartMoney . Hanke was recognised as one of the National Speakers Association's QTop 6 Under 40.

Elevate is his gift to the world and his quest to share his 'journey of increased awareness and enhanced performance.'" --Leanda Cave, world triathlon champion and first woman in history to win both the Ironman Triathlon and Half Ironman in the same year (2012) "Joe Deitch has accomplished a miracle--a self-help book that really helps. Do yourself an enormous favor: If you buy only one self-help book, make it this one." --Martin Sandler, award-winning author of more than seventy books, two-time Pulitzer Prize nominee, and five-time Emmy Award winner "This is a large-hearted and graciously written handbook for existing. No crystals, nothing 'funny, ' just a followable, easy-to-digest guide up the mountain of life, where Deitch proffers up a better view and clearer air. There's a treasure house of consciousness-expanding stories, quotes, and insights threaded together with practical how-to approaches to the business of work, health, and love.

In short: reading this book will make you a better person." --Amanda Palmer, rock star, crowd funding pioneer, TED speaker, and author of The Art of Asking "Destined to be a modern classic, Elevate tackles perceptions about life and common sense, gives them bones, and shares actionable direction. It left me knowing more about what makes me tick and gave me the tools to make impactful and lasting changes to my life." --Les Otten, Inc. magazine Turnaround Entrepreneur of the Year and former vice chairman of the Boston Red Sox "I've known Joe Deitch, professionally and personally, for many years. Evident in every conversation we have had is that Joe is a thoughtful, fascinating man, with great insights on life and business." --Jack Nicklaus, SportsIllustrated's Individual Male Athlete of the 20th Century and winner of a record eighteen major professional golf championship titles "This wonderful book is full of life-changing wisdom from a man who has lived its insights. Joe Deitch digs deep and shares what we all need to know for greater adventures in life and work. I will enthusiastically recommend this illuminating treatise from the heart and mind to everyone I know." --Tom Morris, former professor of philosophy at the University of Notre Dame and author of If Aristotle Ran General Motors, True Success, and The Oasis Within "Reading this book is like accepting an invitation to an inspiring, enlightening conversation with a good friend. Joe's reflective questioning woven throughout nudges us toward greater understanding of ourselves and how to reach our potential in any field or endeavor. The insights are timeless and will provide guidance throughout life's stages. This book is perfect for a recent graduate or anyone navigating a life transition." --Lynne Mooney Teta, Headmaster Emerita, Boston Latin School "Joe is one of those rare people who has achieved much success in many different businesses. But what I also admire in him is his ability to truly savor his life and relationships. In Elevate, he distills the principles and practices that have worked for him and so many others. It is an insightful and eminently actionable book. I only wish I had read it many years ago, and I will send copies to my daughters." --Sanjiv Mirchandani, President, Fidelity Clearing and Custody Solutions "Joe Deitch lives and breathes continuous self-challenge, and through that, self-improvement.

This book can help you enter a new phase of your life with more insights leading to more fulfillment and more happiness." --Dr. Ed Mascioli, MD, physician, venture capitalist, biotech CEO "Joe has written an inspiring primer filled with wisdom. He is a master of brief, bite size, streetwise nuggets and takes you on an easy ride to success in business and in life." --Stephen P. Kaufman, Professor, Harvard Business School and retired chairman and CEO of Arrow Electronics, Inc. "I've known Joe as a successful entrepreneur, a solid and trusted leader, an innovator, a friend, and now as an author. Joe's humility has enabled him to listen to everyone, to question everything, and to then reflect and derive wisdom from his life's experiences. Elevate will help us all improve the quality of our lives." --Steven E. Karol, former YPO International President "From a pioneer in the financial planning industry, I expect practical advice. From a Tony Award-winning Broadway producer, I expect entertainment. Joe Deitch is both of those people, and this book delivers on both of those expectations." --Adam Grant, New York Times best-selling author of Give and Take, Originals, and Option B with Sheryl Sandberg "With Elevate, Joe Deitch has achieved something remarkable: adding something distinctive and valuable to an oversaturated self-help market. By integrating Awareness and Action, the book links inner and outer, East and West, ancient and modern, spiritual and scientific into one eminently practical volume that will elevate every life to higher achievement and fulfillment." --Philip Goldberg, author of American Veda "Elevate draws upon science, literature, religion, and our bodies to create a rational blueprint for self-discovery and improvement. It describes ways to change our lives today that help us rise to our potential. Don't just read it--use it!" --David Dodson, Professor, Stanford Graduate School of Business specializing in entrepreneurship, and philanthropist "I told Joe Deitch months ago after I read the draft of Elevate that I could not wait for it to be published. Read it, study it, think about it, and implement it. Real happiness and success is not about what you know, what you do, or how much money you make. It is about who you are." --Lee Cockerell, former executive vice president, Walt Disney World Resort and best-selling author of Creating Magic "Elevate offers the clues to do just what the title suggests. If you want strategies for keeping your life on a continuous upward path, this book is for you. Success in life is multi-dimensional, and Joe Deitch touches on all dimensions. This book is a great read for everyone at any point in life." --Luke Campbell, Olympic gold medalist and professional boxer "As I approach my 80th year, I firmly believe that if you stop learning, you should lie down and let them throw dirt on you, because you are already dead. Read Elevate, and you'll learn some new ways of not only thinking about life but, more important, doing life." --Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The New One Minute Manager(R)and coeditor of Servant Leadership in Action "Insightful, practical, and full of wisdom . . . Elevate is for those who know they have so much more potential but struggle with things holding them back. Deitch trans-forms decades of experience and thought into a clear path to better awareness about the obstacles and practical action." --Shawn Achor, New York Times best-selling author of The Happiness Advantage

    Book SynopsisAttaining the Unattainable Is Within Our Reach Captain William "T." Thompson's accomplishments are many: US Air Force pilot, Delta Airlines captain, lawyer, award-winning businessman, and professional speaker. But Thompson did not start out in life with any special advantages. In fact, being born and raised in segregated South Carolina meant that the difficulties he faced growing up were many. But realizing his aspiration to become a pilot and becoming the first African American from the state to be accepted into the prestigious United States Air Force Academy was just the beginning of a pattern of successes in a life that extended far beyond its origins. Thompson uses his life's challenges and his personal story to prove that we can all accomplish much more than we previously considered possible--and that we should strive for things that we have even considered unattainable. It doesn't take special gifts or talents either, the author insists. He credits his P4 System (Principles, People, Flight Plan, and Performance) as the foundation that enabled him to literally pilot his way to success and ultimately become a multimillionaire in the process. With an attractive and distinctive aviation motif, The Flight to Excellence inspires and instructs executives, entrepreneurs, and anyone with a strong desire to reach extraordinary heights on how we can each build a "Culture of Excellence" in our own professional and personal lives by applying his methodical process and concepts and our own discipline and hard work. The proof is in the captain's own successes. Captain William "T."

    Book SynopsisThere comes a time in every competitive athlete’s life when the cheering stops and it’s time to move on to other pursuits. Written by a former Division 1 football player and Academic All-American, The Way of the Athlete argues that sports prepares athletes for this transition by instilling qualities that contribute to academic, business, and personal success.Rob Pate draws on his own experience, together with the experiences of coaches and other athletes, to highlight the parallels between athletic achievement and attainment in other areas of life. The author looks beyond the time-honored qualities of discipline, dedication, teamwork, sportsmanship, and leadership. He examines other must-have athletic attributes that help build character, including the ability to bounce back and learn from failure.Not every athlete can make a Division 1 roster. But everyone who’s played sports can take the experience and chart a path to success in other areas of life. Written by someone who’s done precisely that, The Way of the Athlete is a guide to getting the most from the lessons that sports have to teach us.Trade Review“A former Division-I football player and Academic All-American shares lessons learned from decades on the field and how to apply them to other areas of life.” --FCA Magazine, published by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes“A former Division-I football player and Academic All-American shares lessons learned from decades on the field and how to apply them to other areas of life.” --FCA Magazine, published by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes

    Book SynopsisJim Palmer was just 20 years old when he became the youngest pitcher ever to throw a World Series shutout, helping lead the Baltimore Orioles to their first-ever championship, in 1966. Two years later, Palmer’s budding career almost ended due to arm problems. Yet, he mounted an inspiring comeback and reached the pinnacle of his profession, becoming the winningest pitcher of the 1970s and the only hurler to win a World Series game in three different decades. With three World Series rings, three Cy Young Awards and six All-Star selections to his name, an exemplary record as a spokesperson for charities and corporations, and his long tenure as a TV baseball analyst, Palmer is an authority on what it takes to succeed on and off of the field. Hall of Fame pitcher Jim Palmer and co-author Alan Maimon take readers inside the clubhouse, broadcast booth, and corporate world to tell the story of a one-of-a-kind career that serves as a how-to guide on succeeding in the workplace. Interspersed with memorable stories from his illustrious career with the Orioles, this book includes baseball wisdom and life-lessons learned from the one-of-a-kind Earl Weaver as well as colorful anecdotes about O’s teammates like Cal Ripken, Jr and Rick Dempsey, and broadcast partners Howard Cosell and Al Michaels.

    Humanix Books The Secret Life: A Book of Wisdom from the Great

    3 in stock

    Book SynopsisHe is one of the wisest men of all time. Since the time of the Bible, he is the only man to be celebrated by the three major Western religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. His name is Maimonides. A philosopher, rabbi, physician, religious thinker and logician, today this sage is considered among the greatest thinkers. The Secret Life reveals his ancient teachings in modern terms. In The Secret Life, you will discover true wisdom and success in every aspect of life comes not from our public persona and life –- as so many believe -- but in our secret thoughts and actions. Maimonides shows how every person can find their true and best self, not only deriving happiness for themselves, but spreading that bliss to everyone they touch. The benefits of living the Secret Life are countless. Changing your approaches to giving charity, to seeking justice, to loving others, and to believing in yourself enough to find and act on your true calling will lead you to remarkable heights. You will find a new resilience against the difficulties and turmoil in life, a new inner power that will keep you focused on the things that really matter, and an inner peace few will ever have. The Secret Life is, quite literally, life changing. “Whatever you do should be done out of nothing else but pure love.” -- Maimonides Jeffrey Katz is a lifelong student and teacher of rationalist religious philosophy. He became fascinated in his youth by his discovery of the ancient wisdom of Maimonides, and received rabbinic ordination while focusing on disseminating the ancient, life-changing wisdom he had uncovered. He is a practicing attorney, has appeared on national television on a broad range of issues, and has lectured widely. Trade Review"The Secret Life illustrates the powerful techniques that Rambam (aka Maimonides) offers, putting it all together into a formula for living a meaningful, elevated and contented life. Best of all, no background is needed." -- The Jewish PressTable of ContentsIntroduction: Maimonides and the Secret LifeChapter 1: The Secret of CharityChapter 2: The Secret of Unconditional LoveChapter 3: The Secret of MercyChapter 4: The Secret of a Higher CallingChapter 5: The Secret of Resilience
