Synopsis

Going Pro: One Author's Advice on Getting Published with Small and Electronic Presses is a concise guide that offers advice on all aspects of writing for publication. From finding the time to write to finding beta readers, from navigating all the elements of a successful submissions packet to understanding a publishing contract to marketing your newly published book -- here I offer the best advice I can on getting your first story from a file on your computer to an e-book released by a small or electronic press.
Topics covered include: polishing your manuscript, finding the right publisher, working with an editor, writing blurbs, and promoting your book. I give detailed explanations of submission guidelines, contracts, rights and copyrights, cover art, and marketing plans. I also offer advice on what to do when things don't go quite as you plan, whether it's a bad review or a pirate site, or your publisher folds. 
It can be intimidating when you're just starting out and trying to get published. I know, I've been there, too. So if you're interested in getting your stories published with a small press or e-book publisher, let me help you through the process!

    Spark the Heart: Engineering Empathy in Your Organization 
     
    How to leverage the benefits of empathy to get the results you want 
     
    There’s no place for empathy in business was a belief Dr. Price, a logical, results-focused engineer held onto tightly, until a cascade of life-altering events provided her a new perspective. A perspective that recognized empathy as a critical skill that every leader must develop and employ to achieve success. Dr. Price’s empathetic leadership journey has been a multi-year process, one that continues today, and one that she willingly shares with you — the good, the bad, and the ugly.   
     
    In Spark the Heart: Engineering Empathy in Your Organization, Dr. Price dispels common empathy myths: 
     
     
    False: Empathy is a trait that you’re born with or notTrue: Everyone can develop the skill of empathy.False: Empathy requires you to take on the other person’s beliefs and values.True: Empathy is understanding why another person believes what they believe and values what they value, even if it’s different from your own.False: Empathy means you don’t have accountability, high expectations, or stretch goals.True: Empathy can fuel expectations and aspirations in new ways. Empathy and accountability can and should exist in tandem. 
     
    And provides clear actionable steps for you to take to begin your own empathy journey or bolster your existing empathy practice. 
     
    For leaders ready to bridge the gap of misunderstanding between themselves and those they choose to lead and to leverage that understanding for greater success, look no further. Dr. Price is here to guide the way.

    When Fortune 100 corporations are stymied, it's the "McKinsey-ites" whom they call for help. In The McKinsey Way, former McKinsey associate Ethan Rasiel lifts the veil to show you how the secretive McKinsey works its magic, and helps you emulate the firm's well-honed practices in problem solving, communication, and management. 
     
     
     
    He shows you how McKinsey-ites think about business problems and how they work at solving them, explaining the way McKinsey approaches every aspect of a task: how McKinsey recruits and molds its elite consultants; how to "sell without selling"; how to use facts, not fear them; techniques to jump-start research and make brainstorming more productive; how to build and keep a team at the top its game; powerful presentation methods, including the famous waterfall chart, rarely seen outside McKinsey; how to get ultimate "buy-in" to your findings; and survival tips for working in high-pressure organizations. 
     
     
     
    Both a behind-the-scenes look at one of the most admired and secretive companies in the business world and a toolkit of problem-solving techniques without peer, The McKinsey Way is fascinating listening that empowers every business decision maker to become a better strategic player in any organization.

    For years, executive Martin Fiore has been advising leaders from a wide range of industries about technological trends that are reshaping the world of business, from artificial intelligence and the rise of autonomous systems to human/machine convergence. Now, in Humanity Reimagined, Fiore explores how these trends are disrupting industries, changing the world of work, transforming the economy, and creating both threats and opportunities for leaders at all levels, from entrepreneurs nurturing start-up businesses to C-suite leaders at the world’s biggest corporations.  
    Fiore’s main focus is on what we can do to ensure that the forces of change now sweeping the planet will protect and enhance the most cherished qualities of human life rather than undermining them. He offers thoughtful recommendations for addressing many of the big issues that today’s transformational technologies are raising, from the threats to privacy posed by misuse of big data to the infiltration of autonomous systems by racial and gender bias. Most important, Fiore provides advice on how to prepare for an unpredictable future that business leaders, policy makers, and individuals forging their careers will find both practical and inspiring.  
    “Fiore combines perceptive forecasting of change with an understanding of how the world and public already has shifted, making a compelling case that making the best of the future demands improving upon the leadership of the past.”—BookLife Reviews 
    “For those looking for a glimpse at the future, this book isn’t a bad place to start. An encouraging, unflinching look at the tech changes to come.”—Kirkus Reviews
