The Body Language Handbook - How to Read Everyone's Hidden Thoughts and Intentions

Gregory Hartley, Maryann Karinch

Summary

Ever wonder what that raised eyebrow, nervous twitch, or lazy slouch really means? Is it profound and important…or a meaningless quirk? In The Body Language Handbook, the authors use candid photos of real people in stress-free situations, then juxtapose them against others showing the same people responding to different kinds of stimulus to illustrate the power of body language. By going step-by-step from the holistic to the detailed, you’ll quickly discover when body language indicates something significant, and when an itch is just an itch. You’ll learn how to:— Identify the basic mechanics of human communication.— Observe what is culturally normal…and when "“abnormal” matters.— Read changes in body language.— Avoid misunderstandings.— Project the right message.— Protect yourself from manipulation.The Body Language Handbook will not only teach you how to read the body language of others, it will also make sure you send the signals you want to send. Increase your power of communication at the office, in a courtroom or classroom, at home, and in any social setting, even the poker table!

Edge Strategy - A New Mindset...

Alan Lewis, Dan McKone

Are you missing opportunities for growth that are right in front of you?
In today's volatile economic environment, filled with uncertainty and sudden change, the forces pushing you to stay focused on the core business are extremely powerful. Profiting from the core is crucial, but the danger is that overfocus on the core can blind companies. Scanning the horizon for new markets and new products can also be tempting, but risky. Fixating too much on either strategy can cause you to miss the substantial opportunities for growth that are often hidden in plain sight, at the edge of the core business. In this insightful yet practical book, strategy experts Alan Lewis and Dan McKone articulate a mindset that helps leaders recognize and capitalize on these opportunities.
The Edge Strategy framework challenges how the boundaries of your existing products and services map to your customers' views of the world and then provides three different lenses through which you can see and leverage value: - Product edge. How to capture incremental profits and other benefits by slightly altering the elements and composition of a core offering - Journey edge. How to create and capture extra value by adjusting your role in supporting the customer's journey to and through your offering - Enterprise edge. How to unlock additional value from resources and capabilities that support your core offering by applying them in a different context, for a different offering or different set of customers With engaging examples across many industries, Lewis and McKone coach you on how to identify and assess each of the different "edges" and then provide concrete insights and advice on applying edge strategy and tactics to use in specific business contexts. The book concludes with a ten-step process to help executives and managers find and leverage the edges in their own companies.
Edge Strategy is the concise, hands-on guide for growing your business by getting more yield from assets already in place, relationships already established, and investments already made.

Dropshipping Shopify E-commerce...

Steve Gates

Are you looking for an online business that does not require a fortune and phenomenal skills to get started?⭐ ⭐ ⭐ BONUS CHAPTER ON FACEBOOK ADS⭐ ⭐ ⭐
Would you invest your time in a business that if done correctly could be scaled to $ 20,000 (and more) per month in a manner of weeks? And what if then it will continue generating great profits on its own, in a completely passive mode?
Then this is not the book for you! Sounds weird? Keep reading....
Well, do not get me wrong - dropshipping is a really great business model to trade stuff online in 2019 and beyond. However, to be honest and straightforward, passive income as most people intend is a pipe dream!
The potential of a dropshipping business is infinite. You could literally earn more money in a month than you’ve ever earned before (at least it’s been like that for me), and it requires relatively little start-up capital since you don’t have to buy the things you’re going to sell, but you wouldn’t get anything with “little or no effort”, at least in the beginning when it comes to setting up the business.
This handbook will literally guide you step by step through all the aspects that come with starting your own dropshipping business, exploring how to get started, what players are involved, what to do and to avoid, which are the most common and uncommon scenarios related, and, most relevant, how to scale the business.
You will thank yourself later for choosing to listen to this audiobook.
