Summary

Drawn from articles Sean has written for the 'Sunday Independent', 'Secrets to Success' is a compilation of inspiring stories of successful Irish-based entrepreneurs and business leaders including:  Voxpro, Tayto Park/Largo Foods, One4All, Realex Payments, Wallace Myers International, Teelings Whiskey and Flahavans.  It teaches valuable lessons from entrepreneurs about their journey from start-up to success. We learn about their backgrounds and what shaped them, how they came up with their killer business ideas, as well as the challenges that confronted them along the way and while they have enjoyed the sweet taste of victory, all, without exception, have known times of bitter defeat.  Sean is convinced that what can be learned from Ireland's microcosm of entrepreneurial endeavour can be applied anywhere in the world.

    Telling the Story - The Heart...

    Telling the Story is both practical (with tips, exercises and examples) and thought provoking. It argues for a re-enchantment of our disenchanted world and for the recognition of more human and humane values in our organizational lives.  The art of narrative leadership is important for senior executives, middle managers and concerned citizens.  Distilling the author's considerable experience as a public service leader, research academic, organizational consultant, performing storyteller and leadership coach on top management programmes, Telling the Story shows how leaders affect our understanding of what is possible and desirable through the stories they tell and the stories they live. It opens a door into the world of narrative leadership: what stories are and how they work; when to tell a story and how to tell one well; how the stories we tell (and the language and metaphors we use) influence our actions and shape the way we think about the world. The book also challenges us to consider the purposes behind our stories: what are we leading for? What are the big stories of our time and how can our own stories help to create the kind of future we want for ourselves and our children?

    Authors Dr. Joanne G. Sujansky and Dr. Jan Ferri-Reed have  documented a growing trend in business today: the tendency for  businesses to encourage GEN Y/GEN X recruitment -- only to  complain about their laziness, disrespect for authority, poor work  ethic and sense of entitlement. So although company's are  spending a lot of time and money hiring and training this  young workforce, it is clear that an "us vs. them"  mentality persists between ownership, management and the  millenials. As a result of this pattern, the  author's say Gen X/GenY is turning  into "Gen-Xit."   This book will explain how Gen X/Gen Y is costing  corporations around the globe billions in unnecessary,  preventable turnover, and provide a proven approach for  creating a corporate culture that attracts and keeps Gen  X-Yers.  Keeping the Millennials covers topics such  as:      How to GEN-green your company with energetic  twenty/thirty-somethings;      A surprising place to find quality GEN X-Y applicants;      The biggest mistake organizations make that brand them as a  bad company to work for;      The biggest complaints that different generations have about  each other;      The top ten attributes of a cool company"      Keeping the Millenials will outline the feasible  steps that any organization can take to zap the gap so different  generations on the job are communicating and turning conflicts into  cooperation.

    "The Way to Wealth" is an essay written by Benjamin Franklin in 1758. It is a collection of adages and advice presented in Poor Richard's Almanac during its first 25 years of publication, organized into a speech given by "Father Abraham" to a group of people. Many of the phrases Father Abraham quotes continue to be familiar today. The essay's advice is based on the themes of work ethic and frugality.
     
    Some phrases from the almanac quoted in "The Way to Wealth" include:
     
    
    
    "There are no gains, without pains;"
    "One today is worth two tomorrows;"
    "A life of leisure and a life of laziness are two things;"
    "Get what you can, and what you get hold;"
    "Sloth, like rust, consumes faster than labor wears, while the used key is always bright;"
    "Have you somewhat to do tomorrow, do it today;"
    "The eye of a master will do more work than both his hands;"
    "Early to bed, and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise;"
    "For want of a nail...".
