Summary

"This inspiring collection makes a strong case for how women can design their work lives to meet both personal and professional needs.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review

Womentality: Thirteen Empowering Stories by Everyday Women Who Said Goodbye to the Workplace and Hello to Their Lives is a collection of powerful, personal essays from enterprising women around the world who came to the same realization: work shouldn’t have to be painful and demeaning. Armed with an internet connection and plenty of creativity and ingenuity, they prove that it is possible to redefine the nine-to-five work paradigm and create a flourishing career that is flexible and fulfilling outside the corporate structure.

The thirteen women—from diverse countries such as Uganda, Venezuela, Poland, Palestine, and the Philippines—approach independent work in different ways, but are all motivated by the same impulses—to escape the drudgery of office life, to have control of their time, and to enjoy the freedom of working for themselves. Importantly, many discover that—outside of the office—it is possible to triumph over global pay disparities that favor men. 

Womentality is not a book about people who do not work—on the contrary, these women work hard and their stories illustrate how they overcame challenges to achieve their goals—whether they sought freedom to travel, to spend more time with the family, escape demeaning office politics, or simply to control their career.

The essays in Womentality prove that a life of independence is not reserved for elite, American workers. It is possible for anyone. As the women who contributed to Womentality can attest: escaping the nine-to-five life isn’t easy—it takes guts and persistence—but it’s absolutely worthwhile.

    Summary of Alec Ross's The Industries of the Future provides an insider’s perspective on emerging digital industries. Many of these emerging technologies, including robotics, genomics, the codification of money into currencies such as Bitcoin, and the development of Big Data analytics, were once considered science fiction. These technological changes build upon the proliferation of personal computers and telecommunications technology in the late twentieth century. Many of these changes, such as enhanced robotics, will begin altering American lifestyles by the end of the next decade. The economic potential of these industries is such that genomics alone is projected to grow to become an industry that rivals the internet in terms of economic impact. The industries of the future will also present new and unique challenges for cybersecurity…

    What if you discovered a blueprint that could grow your brand’s reputation and loyalty, dramatically reduce customer service issues, produce content and technology, and cement a powerful, lasting relationship between you and your customers? 
    Communities have been a popular topic since the rise of the Internet and social media, but few companies have consistently harnessed their power, driven tangible value, and effectively measured their return on investment (ROI) like Salesforce.com, Star Citizen via Kickstarter, and Red Hat. Companies such as PayPal, Facebook, Bosch, Microsoft, CapitalOne, and Google, have also built communities inside their organizations, which have fostered innovation, broken down silos, and helped their organizations to operate more efficiently and collaboratively. 
    People Powered helps C-suite leaders, founders, marketers, customer advocates, and community leaders gain a competitive advantage by answering the following questions: What is the key value proposition of building a community?What kind of community do we need and how do we build and integrate it into our organization?How do we incentivize and encourage people to get involved, build reliable growth, and keep community members engaged?How do we develop authentic, productive relationships with community members both online and in person?How do we get departmental buy-in, hire effectively, and create consistent, reliable community engagement skills in our organization?What are the strategic and tactical pitfalls and roadblocks we need to avoid?How do we make sure that our community continues to grow with us—and more importantly, how do we make sure that we continue to grow with them? 
    People Powered pulls together over 20 years of pragmatic experience into a clear, simple methodology and blueprint to not just answer these questions, but deliver results. 
    Don’t get left behind—become an industry trailblazer and ensure your company’s longevity by tapping into the most dynamic force both outside and inside your organization: the people.

    In this groundbreaking book, Russ Alan Prince and Lewis Schiff examine the far-reaching impact of the middle-class millionaires-people who enjoy a net worth ranging from one to ten million dollars who have earned rather than inherited their wealth. Comprising 8.4 million households, these working rich are exerting a powerful influence on our attitudes and on society. They believe in the benefits of hard work. They believe in investing in themselves and in supporting their values with their pocketbooks. From home security systems to health care, technology to travel, their spending choices are affecting the products that are available to us all.In the bestselling tradition of Bobos in Paradise and The Millionaire Next Door, The Middle-Class Millionaire is a captivating narrative-part sociology, part aspirational journey into the lives, attitudes, and values of the middle-class millionaires. Based on extensive surveys and research into more than 3,600 middle-class millionaire households around the United States, this book will reshape our understanding of what it takes to be successful-and how all of us can achieve similar success.

    The economy is changing, and you should change with it. In Unfair Advantage (2011), Robert T. Kiyosaki highlights the importance of letting go of traditional get-rich strategies and adopting new ones that will make you financially free. Only the things that put money in your pocket are assets, and you should educate yourself thoroughly on which ones to invest in. The right financial education will give you an unfair advantage over most people. Kiyosaki teaches how, even in a financial crisis, you can learn to take advantage and become richer.
