At the age of 11, I wrote my first book, about orphaned animals with names like “Bob Katt” and “Chip Monk.” My parents took the original typed manuscript and had it bound into a book. I don’t think I’ve stopped writing since.
I majored in Creative Writing at San Francisco State University and wrote a personal column for a quarterly newsletter focusing on the entertainment industry for four years. My “That’s Entertainment” series combines my love of pop culture with a story that takes the reader to another world for a few hours.
Although my day job as a non-profit fundraiser requires database geekery, I find writing a great deal more fun. Both my characters and I know that a pair of colorful cowboy boots can change your life. Plus, life is better with a little romance.
Succeeding in your new job just got easier
Why is it that we don't learn at school some of the most important things we'll need for life? These are things like how to succeed in relationships, how to read a contract for buying a home - and how to start a new job successfully. These are things we eventually glean from other people, through observation or through trial and error. The purpose of this book is to cut out the trial and error and to give you the experiences of highly successful people so that you can succeed now.
This book covers the essential ingredients you'll need for succeeding in your new job. They include:
- Preparing before you start
- Handling day one with ease
- Having great success with your boss and colleagues
- Using the right attitudes (ones that get you promoted not demoted)
- Planning your leadership future by halting failure
- Promoting loyalty and leading change
- Succeeding as a leader (handling difficult situations head on)
- Reaching your goals with proper monitors and controls
Keep pen and paper to hand as you read each day's chapter so that you can make notes when prompted. Your notes will build up into a useful set of prompts for you as youmake your mark in the new job.
