Summary

Everyone talks about the opportunity. Nobody talks about the cost. Behind the income screenshots and work-from-home success stories is a different reality that most Filipinos in remote work are navigating alone: unstable contracts, night shift exhaustion, underpricing out of fear, family pressure that has no name, and the quiet anxiety of building something with no safety net beneath it. This book does not romanticize the lifestyle. It prepares you for it. Written from real experience inside the Filipino VA industry, Behind the Screen is for the professional who is tired of survival-level freelancing and ready to build something that actually lasts. It covers what the industry avoids: mental health, pricing confidence, client protection, burnout, identity, and the systems that separate short-term income from long-term stability. Because in a global market, opportunities are not enough. Standards determine who lasts.

  • How to Have Difficult Conversations About Race - Practical Tools for Necessary Change in the Workplace and Beyond - cover

    How to Have Difficult...

    Negotiation expert Kwame Christian's motto is: "The best things in life are on the other side of difficult conversations." If we want a more equitable workplace, and a more equitable world, we have to talk to each other about race. But, for so many of us, that's easier said than done. 
 
  
  
Many people avoid conversations about race because of fear: fear of discomfort, damaging important relationships, being misunderstood, "canceled," ostracized. How to Have Difficult Conversations About Race equips you with the skills you need to make these crucial conversations easier and more productive. 
 
 
  
Whether you're looking to create change for yourself and other BIPOC, or a white ally seeking to support your coworkers or clients, you'll learn how to: overcome your internal barriers to talking about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI); work around others' barriers to productive discussion; be strategic about the outcome you want, and guide the conversation accordingly; use "Compassionate Curiosity" to connect and persuade; avoid common mistakes; and communicate more effectively over email, when you can't talk face to face. If you've ever struggled to turn that passion into persuasion, or been too afraid to speak up at work (or outside of it), this book is for you.

    'An inspirational book about how your life can be turned upside down but you can still land on your feet!’ – Jojo Sutherland, comedian 
 
'This book is a siren call to anyone who has allowed others to define their direction, ambition and ultimately happiness in life. Siobhan’s message: don’t let them; it’s your life, do it your way.’ – Clare McDonnell, BBC Radio 5 Live presenter 
 
'As women – and men – in their fifties and sixties read Siobhan’s story, I can envisage them all having “lightbulb moments”. It happened to me when I met Siobhan; she really made me think about what it is I want from this stage of life and the need to go out and get it. Enjoy this great tale of determination, courage and joy. You won’t look back.’ – Kaye Adams, Loose Women presenter 
 
Approaching retirement and frustrated with her job, Siobhan Daniels made a BIG decision: to start living life on her own terms. Rather than hiding from life’s challenges, she bought a motorhome and drove off to find them. 
 
Retirement Rebel is Siobhan’s honest and uplifting story of how one woman stepped off the merry-go-round of life, slowed down and started enjoying the journey. Of how she sold up, packed up and hit the roads of the UK with no real plan, embarking on a positive-ageing adventure and hoping to inspire women across the country with her message that retirement could actually be the start of life’s adventures. With no shortage of mishaps and hardships along the way – not least being commanded to ‘stay at home’ during the Covid lockdowns, despite always being at home wherever she was – Siobhan’s story can inspire us all. Her message is that we can make simple lifestyle changes to feel happier and more fulfilled. Because at the end of the day, age shouldn’t be a barrier to having an adventure.

    Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better! by Dr. Willie Jolley is a guide to building lasting financial freedom and generational wealth. Drawing on two decades of interviews with top wealth creators on The Willie Jolley Wealthy Ways Show (Sirius XM and podcast), Dr. Jolley shows the difference between being rich and being truly wealthy and how to achieve the latter. 
 
Being rich is temporary and tied to income or possessions. Being wealthy is lasting, sustainable, and generational. It begins with mindset, systems, and smart financial habits. Dr. Jolley explains money’s history, how it works, and why financial literacy is the foundation of true wealth. He teaches principles like compound interest, saving, investing, and stewardship, showing that wealth begins in the mind before it grows in the bank. 
 
The book explores the five types of wealth: financial, health, relationship, reputational, and intellectual. Nurturing all five creates a truly rich life. Dr. Jolley also reveals the five money mindsets that shape financial success and challenges readers to shift from scarcity thinking to a growth and abundance mindset. 
 
Filled with motivational stories, biblical parables, and practical tools such as checklists, wealth-building systems, and recommended resources, Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better! is more than a book. It is a roadmap to transform your financial life and inspire the next generation to sustain and grow the wealth they inherit. 
 
Move beyond just making money and start building lasting, meaningful wealth today.

One small idea can ignite a revolution just as a single matchstick can start a fire. 
 
 
 
One such idea—putting employees first and customers second—sparked a revolution at HCL Technologies, the IT services giant. 
 
 
 
In this candid and personal account, Vineet Nayar—HCLT's celebrated CEO—recounts how he defied the conventional wisdom that companies must put customers first, then turned the hierarchical pyramid upside down by making management accountable to the employees, and not the other way around. 
 
 
 
By doing so, Nayar fired the imagination of both employees and customers and set HCLT on a journey of transformation that has made it one of the fastest-growing and profitable global IT services companies and, according to BusinessWeek, one of the twenty most influential companies in the world. 
 
 
 
Chapter by chapter, Nayar recounts the exciting journey of how he and his team implemented the employee first philosophy. 
 
 
 
Refreshingly honest and practical, this book offers valuable insights for managers seeking to realize their aspirations to grow faster and become self-propelled engines of change.
