  Are you being ignored by your team? Are you trusted by those you lead? Is it a challenge to get organizational buy-in no matter what you try? You might be tempted to think the problem is everyone else, but a breakdown in communication is often linked to a leader’s behavior and approach. In short, it’s not the culture that’s the problem—it’s that nobody believes you. Business communications strategist Jenni Field knows what it’s like to help leaders get out of their own way. From working with creative entrepreneurs to C-suite executives at Fortune 500 companies, she’s learned over the years that the number one challenge for most organizations is not a question of engagement but of credibility. When nobody believes you, almost everything feels like a wrestling match. When everybody believes you, almost anything becomes possible. This book will help you become the kind of leader people want to follow and be the credible leader your team needs.

  Twelve and a Half - Leveraging...

  In his sixth business book, bestselling author, entrepreneur, and investor Gary Vaynerchuk explores the twelve essential emotional skills that are integral to his life—and business—success and provides today’s (and tomorrow’s) leaders with critical tools to acquire and develop these traits. 
  For decades, leaders have relied on “hard” skills to make smart decisions, while dismissing the importance of emotional intelligence. Soft skills like self-awareness and curiosity aren’t quantifiable; they can’t be measured on a spreadsheet and aren’t taught in B-schools or emphasized in institutions. We’ve been taught that emotional intelligence is a “nice to have” in business, not a requirement. But soft skills can actually accelerate business success, Gary Vaynerchuk argues. For analytical minds, it’s challenging to understand how to get “better” at being self-aware, curious, or empathetic—or even why it’s important to try.  
  In this wise and practical book, Gary explores the 12 human ingredients that have led to his success and happiness and provides exercises to help you develop these traits yourself. He also shares what the “half” is—that emotional ingredient of leadership he’s weakest at and makes the most effort to improve. Working through the ideas and exercises in the book, he teaches you how to discover your own “halves” and offers insight on how to strengthen them.  
  Gary’s secret to success is using these twelve traits in varying mixtures, depending on the situation. But how do we know when to balance patience with ambition? Humility with conviction? Gary provides real-life examples involving common business scenarios to show you how to use them together for optimum results.  
  This iconoclastic book will help you refine your ingredients and improve your leadership capabilities. When implemented in the proper situation, these ingredients can help leaders land promotions, retain core employees, move faster than competitors, win the loyalty of customers, and build successful organizations that last.

  Hi, I’m Jeannie Savage, and right now I’m excited. Why? Because I am about to share with you my Bookkeeping Practice BluePrint – your step-by-step guide to success, and the planning, diagnostic and day-to-day tool that will help maximise and sustain that success. 
  In this book, we’ll cover a range of topics that will give you clear instructions on how to use the BluePrint I’ve developed over 13 long years. We’ll start with a crash course in Getting it Done, which will help you develop the mindset, the habits and the processes that you’ll need. And then we’ll move onto the mechanics of getting it done using the BluePrint – your Foundations, Products and Pricing, Finding and Engaging Your Audience, and putting on your Business Development Hat. And believe me, by the time we get to that last chapter, your new Business Development Hat will not only fit and look fabulous on you, but you will also feel incredibly comfortable wearing it. 
  Using this book along with my first book – and complemented by my podcast – I think you’ll be motivated to join my transformation program. But if for some reason you aren't ready to become a full member of my tribe, I recommend my starter membership. Named “starter” because it’s a great place to start. In fact, many of our successful tribe members inside my program started there too. You can find a link to my starter membership at www.thestrategicbookkeeper.global/starter 
  Whether you join us or not, I hope you find real value in The Bookkeeping Practice Blueprint, and I wish you the very best of success and freedom. The world needs more strategic bookkeepers, and I’m sure you’ll bring credit to our profession; however you go about it.
