Collaboration: The New Currency...

Ph.D. Dawna Markova

A “mind share economy” is all about collaboration where the currency is ideas. The more ideas you share with each other the richer all of you are. A “market share economy” is based on the premise that the more of something you have and the less someone else has, what you have is more valuable. This sets up a culture of competition, and creativity suffers.

Falcon Press

Buy now to get the key takeaways from Josh Hawley's The Tyranny of Big Tech. 
  
Sample Key Takeaways: 
1) Big Tech is managed by thieves who drain prosperity and power from society by creating an oligarchy. Consumers’ personal data are extracted, tracked, and fed into a vast data machine to produce algorithms that manipulate users with advertisements tailored for them. This produces an online-addicted economy, with a never-ending cycle. 
2) Corporate liberalism is taking over public philosophy, becoming accepted by the establishment of both major parties. This has made it more difficult to prove that concentrated power is detrimental, whether in government or private corporations. Liberty is threatened by the rise of monopolies and decline of an independent working class.

AARP® Crash Course in Finding...

Samuel Greengard

The authoritative resource for finding new work and new purpose after fifty. 
 
Whether they’re old enough to have earned their AARP card or not, a new generation of American workers is no longer counting the days until retirement. Instead, they’re seeking greater fulfillment in their personal lives by tackling new—and often much more socially significant—work. 
 
Switching careers is a challenge at any age, yet boomers may have more to overcome than their younger counterparts: They must beef up their education or seek out retraining; cope with seismic lifestyle shifts such as less income and a new circle of friends; and reconcile themselves to the fact that even the most rewarding position is no panacea for life’s problems.  
 
After decades writing about career issues for publications as diverse as the Chicago Tribune, Family Circle, Workplace Management, and Wired, Sam Greengard brings a wealth of knowledge to this timely topic. He shows how to sort out your feelings about your existing career; successfully transition to a new one; and work toward a greater sense of balance in your daily life. Profiles of those who’ve attained their own goals are included, along with tips, quizzes, worksheets, how-to sidebars, and other practical resources.
