Synopsis

Project Failures tackles the widespread issue of why projects falter despite careful planning and substantial investment. It identifies inadequate planning, poor communication, and ineffective risk management as key culprits behind project mismanagement. The book emphasizes that systemic issues, rather than just technical problems or individual shortcomings, often lead to failure. For instance, unrealistic expectations can cripple planning, while a disconnect among stakeholders can stem from poor communication.

The book draws from decades of research and real-world experience to present actionable strategies for preventing failure. It provides a holistic approach, stressing the importance of realistic planning, transparent communication, and robust risk mitigation. The analysis blends academic research, industry reports, and case studies, offering practical solutions applicable across diverse industries.

The book progresses logically, starting with the core concepts of project failure, delving into specific causes like planning deficiencies and communication breakdowns, and culminating in a guide to implementing preventative measures. Unique in its emphasis on actionable strategies, Project Failures goes beyond problem identification to offer concrete solutions. It also highlights the importance of stakeholder engagement and fostering a culture of accountability.

By addressing organizational behavior and strategic planning, the book provides valuable insights for project managers, business leaders, and students alike, helping them enhance project success rates and learn from both successes and failures.

Learn 2 Invest Kid

Pavi Toor, Jaiden Toor, Pravin Toor

The goal of this book is to help young people and their parents to learn more about investing in blue chip dividend paying stocks. There are two ways to make money off stocks: Capital Appreciation and Dividends.
Some companies, such as Canadian banks have consistently paid their dividends for over 150 years. As dividends increase the share price typically follows. We try to make this process easy to understand.
Many young people feel like the cost of living today keeps them from enjoying the benefits their parents and grandparents had: a house, two cars, money for vacations, and a comfortable retirement with a pension plan. Even with a university degree and a good paying job, it may seem impossible to get ahead financially. Most can't keep up with inflation. The cards are stacked against them, right?
Maybe there's a way out of that situation.
More and more people are looking for alternate ways of making money because their regular jobs just aren't cutting it. In Learn 2 Invest Kid, the Toor family shows how investing in stocks is a viable way of creating personal wealth. In using superheroes as examples, they have found a unique way of presenting complex investment ideas. Through it all, they maintain that the key to success is investing in blue-chip, dividend-paying stocks. Did you know that most Canadian banks have paid consistent & growing dividends for more than 150 years? What do you think happened to their stock prices?
Investing in stocks doesn't have to be scary. It can allow young people today to take control of their lives and build the kind of future they always hoped for. Within the pages of this book, investment concepts are broken down and analyzed; successes and failures are discussed; and research and patience are emphasized.

The Loving Truth About Money - A...

Diana Richey

Finally—the real story about building wealth and letting go of financial fears. 
The world tells us two divergent stories about money. Either you must work, grind, and struggle, or you just sit back, let go, and watch the universe rain abundance on you. Of course, neither story is true. Financial expert Diana Richey reveals that we can change our relationship with money by interrogating the forces that influence our lives—and learning to maximize the potential energy within and around us. 
The Loving Truth About Money explores how both inner work (a deep dive into who you are and what larger powers support you) and outer work (the actionable steps you can take to make financial decisions) can align to lead you to the abundance and peace you know deep down is possible. Richey’s three-step process demonstrates how to move beyond your limiting beliefs to harness the power of energetics, creating financial security and the life of your dreams while investing in the world you want to see. 
Richey’s guidance is rooted in her own experience and expertise in the financial sector as an attorney and certified financial planner and is a distillation of her twenty-year path from a life that felt like a beautiful prison to a life that’s peaceful, joyful, and aligned. Whether you’re a new or seasoned investor, you will find time-tested advice to help you forge your own road to financial peace.
