Summary

In this gripping and colorful account of the American dream gone astray, Lewis Pinault provides the essential guidelines on how to get ahead and an enlightening perspective on the brutal infighting that can engulf even the most civilized consulting firm. This stunning exposé of some of the most prestigious and respected names in the business leads you into a world where a client's interests are skillfully subordinated to those of the consultants, where money rules the day, and where principles and morals are unwelcome baggage.Humorous and insightful, this no-holds-barred account takes you behind the scenes of the dehumanizing indoctrination of an academic intellectual into an exploitative -- and exploited -- "global transformation contractor." Featuring new material dealing with the e-consulting industry's boom, bust, and its future, Consulting Demons offers the most complete look at an industry that exacts the highest prices for the most questionable standards of success.
Available since: 10/13/2010.

    When you dig into the details of Bitcoin, it’s an absolutely out of this world story ripped right from a futuristic sci-fi fantasy. And while it may seem like science fiction, it’s getting very real, very fast. Bitcoin is now the best-known iteration of digital currency on the planet. So to help you wrap your head around exactly what it is, what it does, and how to get your digital hands on a piece of all the buzz-worthy Bitcoin action, I’ve endeavoured to create this easily digestible, but nutrient-dense beginner’s guide to becoming a Bitcoin boss.I made this book because it’s exactly what I wish I had read before diving into the wild world of Crypto, and I know it’s gonna put you on the absolute best path towards your first Bitcoin investments, but before we go any further I just want to reiterate that investing in cryptocurrency or online tokens of any kind is highly speculative and the market is largely unregulated. Anyone considering it should be prepared to lose their entire investment. I will also let you in on a safer (some might say smarter way to invest in the entire bitcoin market without the hazards and hassles of buying and storing bitcoin). Now that that pesky little disclaimer is outta the way....Here comes everything you’ll ever need to know about the king of cryptocurrency, Bitcoin!

    They were five dynamic young women: smart, successful—and secretly drowning in debt. Inspired by an episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show on personal finance, Andrea, Angela, Katie, Robyn, and Sandra formed a money club, together developing strategies for turning their finances around. Just one year later, they had dramatically improved their financial situations—and had made major developments in their careers, relationships, and life goals to boot. Their proven recipe for success has since been featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show and MSNBC, and in the New York Daily News. How did they do it? These five women—with varied careers in marketing, public relations, social work, and TV production—joined forces to create a fun, simple, effective strategy for achieving financial success, forming a money club, and supporting each other every step of the way. Now, in this extraordinary hands-on guide, the women, who dubbed themselves the Smart Cookies, share the secrets of their success.Weaving anecdotes from their own lives with practical how-to advice, the Smart Cookies offer strategies that cut across the financial spectrum, whether you're deeply in debt or just want to manage your money better. Tackling the unique financial challenges facing women today, they offer easy-to-follow advice on everything from creating a spending plan to boosting your income to starting your own money club.

    It's only because they like me. I was in the right place at the right time. I just work harder than the others. I don't deserve this. It's just a matter of time before I am found out. Someone must have made a terrible mistake.If you are a working woman, chances are this inter­nal monologue sounds all too familiar. And you're not alone. A shocking number of accomplished women in all ca­reer paths and at every level feel as though they are faking it—impostors in their own lives and careers. While the impostor syndrome is not unique to women, women are more apt to agonize over tiny mistakes, see even constructive criticism as evi­dence of their shortcomings, and chalk up their accomplishments to luck rather than skill.An internationally known speaker, Valerie Young has devoted her career to understanding women's most deeply held beliefs about themselves and their success. In her decades of research, she has uncovered the often surprising reasons why so many accomplished women experience this crushing self-doubt. In The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women, Young gives these women the solution they have been seek­ing. Combining insightful analysis with effective ad­vice and anecdotes, she explains what the impostor syndrome is, why fraud fears are more common in women, and how you can recognize the way it mani­fests in your life.
