EXCERPT FROM CHAPTER 2 - SIT AT THE TABLE
 
-Our invited guests, mostly men, grabbed plates and food and sat down at the large conference table. Secretary Geithner's team, all women, took their food last and sat in chairs off to the side of the room.
 
-I motioned for the women to come sit at the table, waving them over so they would feel welcomed. The four women had every right to be at this meeting, but because of their seating choice, they seemed like spectators rather than participants.
 
-A moment when I realized that in addition to facing institutional obstacles, women face a battle from within.
 
-When a man fails, he points to factors like didn't study enough or not interested in the subject matter.
 
EXCERPT FROM CHAPTER 5 - ARE YOU MY MENTOR?
 
-Chasing or forcing the [mentor] connection rarely works, and yet I see women attempt this all the time.
 
-The question is a total mood killer, the equivalent of turning to a pensive date and asking, What are you thinking?
 
-I mentor when I see something and say, I want to see that grow.
 
-For the past decade, talk of mentorship and sponsorship has been topic number one at any womens career seminar.
 
-I realized that searching for a mentor has become the professional equivalent of waiting for Prince Charming.
 
-The acknowledgments in this book include a long list of people who have been generous enough to guide and advise me. In turn, I have tried to mentor others, including friends of friends, and as I get older, children of friends.

    This book shows how ANY student can get a job, internship or research position they want using the Career Launch Method—a detailed framework based on a key insight: the clearest path to landing a position you want is through creating relationships with professionals in the industries you desire. 
     
    It's tough to find an internship or job that you really want during the best of times, and these are not the best of times.  
      
    Did you know only 20% of jobs and internships are posted online? This means 80% of positions are filled in what Sean O'Keefe  and others calls the hidden job market. And while the success rate of applying to online job postings is less than 2%, if you develop an internal advocate at the organizations you're interested in, you are 12 times more likely to land a position. 
      
    O'Keefe, in partnership with The Career Leadership Collective, is now sharing his proven, 8-step, Career Launch Method™ that will help ANY student explore career options and land the internships and jobs they want by creating professional relationships from scratch. This book demystifies the concept of intentional, proactive relationship-building by teaching all the practical micro-steps needed to succeed. O'Keefe teaches you how to "play the student card" to turn your student status into a powerful advantage. 
      
    Launch Your Career features first-person stories of students from all backgrounds and programs of study who have used the Career Launch Method™ to earn jobs or internships at all types of companies, non-profits, government agencies, social enterprises, and institutions across the country and around the world.  
      
    Thousands of students have reported that the Career Launch Method™ increased their self- 
    confidence and helped them become more courageous, not only in their job search, but in all areas of life. 
      
    The book includes the Career Launch Readiness Assessment™ which helps students evaluate their competency in five key areas: career exploration, personal brand, networking, job searching, and personal growth.  This book will become a go-to resource for students looking to find internships and jobs, as well as a needed resource for colleges looking to increase retention rates and student's ROI.

  • The Campaigns for Vicksburg 1862-63 - Leadership Lessons - cover

    The Campaigns for Vicksburg...

    This study of the Battle of Vicksburg offers “a thorough campaign history . . . and 30 instructional leadership vignettes” by a Citadel tactical officer (Military Review). 
     
    Considered by many historians to be the truly decisive battle of the Civil War, Vicksburg is fascinating on many levels. A focal point of both western armies, the campaign of maneuver that finally isolated the Confederates in the city was masterful. The Navy’s contribution to the Union victory was significant. The human drama of Vicksburg’s beleaguered civilian population is compelling, and the Confederate cavalry dashes that first denied the Union victory are thrilling. But the key to the federal victory at Vicksburg was simply better leadership. It is this aspect of the campaign that The Campaigns for Vicksburg, 1862–1863 seeks to explore. 
     
    The first section of this book familiarizes the reader with the challenges, characteristics, and styles associated with leadership during the Civil War in general. It also outlines the Vicksburg campaign, from the failed attempts at capture to the brilliant maneuvers and logistics that allowed Grant to ultimately lay siege. The second section of the book contains thirty “leadership vignettes” that span the actions of the most senior leaders down to those of individual soldiers. Each vignette explains the action in terms of leadership lessons learned and concludes with a short list of “take-aways” to crystallize the lessons for the reader. 
     
    This study covers many of the Civil War’s most famous commanders who vied for the Rebel “Gibraltar on the Mississippi” and reveals important lessons on decision-making that still apply to this day.

    The Enneagram is a powerful tool, with ancient roots and modern appeal, for detailing the human personality. It illuminates the painful truth of where we are and inspires us with the promise of where we could be.As the Enneagram has grown in popularity over the past thirty years, the insights offered have focused either on the present or the future, with little guidance on how to move from Point A to Point B. In The Conscious Enneagram, Abi Robins offers a rich, insightful guide for those seeking to move from patterns to promise.Through practical, easy-to-understand coaching, storytelling, and personal inquiry, Robins explores three main ways for getting from where we are to where we could be: practice, lineage, and community. These make up the three-legged stool of the inner and outer work required to radically change the way we think, feel, and move through the world. This book will show you how to cultivate each of these legs in your life in meaningful, enriching ways that are tailored to your type.
