Campaign Boot Camp 20 - A Seven-Step Guide to Winning: Basic Training for Candidates Staffers Volunteers and Nonprofits

Christine Pelosi

Beschreibung

 Christine Pelosi presents leadership lessons from the campaign trail from a diverse array of over forty public figures, lending advice for anyone who wants to run for office, advocate for a cause, or win a public policy issue. This book draws from her leadership “boot camps” conducted in over thirty American states and in three foreign countries, working with thousands of volunteers and dozens of successful candidates for office from city council to US congress. Campaign Boot Camp 2.0 is basic training for future leaders who hear a call to service—a voice of conscience that springs from their vision, ideas, and values—and want to translate that call into positive change. Pelosi outlines the seven essential steps to winning: identify your call to service, define your message, know your community, build your leadership teams, raise the money, connect with people, and mobilize to win. Each chapter concludes with a “Get Real” exercise so readers can personalize and integrate these ideas into individual efforts. In this edition, Pelosi updates the book's “Call to Service” profiles of political leaders and their calls to service; details the expanding role of social media, the Internet, and technology as message multipliers; explores challenges unique to women candidates; and expands on the power of volunteers.

Business Credit Leveraging

Victor Allen

This book will help a person with a plan, yet funding caused everything to come to a complete stop. It will also help someone bridge the distance between ambition and destiny. I sometimes look at it as my bridge to fulfill my purpose in life. I feel that knowledge is power. So many people don't understand financial institutions. I feel I need to share the information with people to help someone. 
I found myself in this position after I graduated from college. I had a degree but no job. I had goals and ambitions to get to that point in life. I just didn't understand how to get my plan funded past this point. I had 65,000 dollars in debt from loans in college, so my social security number was just a little over-leveraged. I had no idea what an EIN number was at the time.

Startup Boards - Getting the...

Brad Feld, Mahendra Ramsinghani

By far, the best way to make sure you have an awesome board is  to start by having awesome Board members.  In Startup  Boards, Brad Feld talks about how having awesome Board members  is managing them well  giving transparent information, well  organized, with enough lead time before a meeting; running great  and engaging meetings; mixing social time with business time; and  being a Board member yourself at some other organization so you see  the other side of the equation. Its about taking the  process of choosing Board Members seriously, interviewing many  people, checking references, and remembering that there should be  no fear in rejecting a wrong fit.
