The MultigenerationalSales TeamHarness the Power of New Perspectives to Sell More, Retain Top Talent, and Design a High-Performing Workplace

Warren Shiver and David Szen

A business’s greatest asset is its experience combined with the innovative. According to estimates by the US Department of Labor, Millennials will represent roughly almost 50% of the workforce in less than 10 years. A flood of blogs, articles, and books are already trying to help professionals and executives understand how the clash of Millennial, Generation X, and Boomer preferences will impact their business and personal careers.

The Multigenerational Sales Team focuses on the increasing need for sales organizations to more effectively leverage talent from generational groups who think, sell, and buy in vastly different ways. It addresses the challenges that many organizations are facing right now:

How can generations with different perspectives find ways to success- fully work together?

How should you recruit, train, and deploy different generations of salespeople to build an effective sales team?

How can sellers identify and address the generational “silent killers” within the sales process?

You will learn how to overcome these obstacles by adjusting internal practices including recruitment, development, and management of sales-people. You will also learn how to improve client-facing activities for better diagnosis and accommodation of buyers’ preferences. With The Multigenerational Sales Team as a guide, sales professionals and teams who begin this transformation will learn to leverage each generation’s unique strengths to drive improvements in both individual and organi-zational performance.

for a successful retirement.

Don’t Retire BrokeAn Indispensable Guide to Tax-Efficient Retirement Planning and Financial Freedom

Rick Rodgers, CFP®

“Don’t Retire Broke is not meant to be read after retirement; it has to be read, absorbed, and assimilated while you are working. I highly recommend this book be included in the curriculum of business schools.”

—Ashraf Chaudhry, author, The Craft of Selling “Yourself”

“What a great read! Simple enough that most everyone should be able to understand its importance.”

—Les Willson, counselor, Financial Peace University

“This is must read for those who are seeking advice on how best to invest for their retirement years and have yet to develop a plan for themselves and family.”

—Gerard L. Glenn, past chairman of the board, SCORE Association, SCORE Foundation

Retirement planning was simple and predictable 40 years ago. All you needed was your company pension, personal savings, and Social Security.

Those days are long gone. Most public pensions are underfunded, and private companies can’t get rid of them fast enough. Social Security’s own trustees predict it will run out of money in less than 20 years. And most people haven’t saved even a fraction of what they should.

Retiring comfortably today is not about saving more, it’s about saving smart. In Don’t Retire Broke, you will learn:

Traps to avoid before you retire.

How to maximize Social Security benefits.

What to do now if you still have a pension.

How to keep the IRS out of your IRA.

Isn’t it time to make sure you don’t retire broke?

Reinventing Yourself20th Anniversary Edition How to Become the Person You’ve Always Wanted to Be

Steve Chandler, author of 100 Ways to Motivate Others Foreword by Christine Hassler, author of Expectation Hangover

This completely revised and updated edition of Reinventing Yourself, the motivational classic by inspirational author Steve Chandler, features several new chapters, including:

What to Do about Your Money Fears

Your Career Played as a Game vs. Your Career as a Grind for Survival

How Much Ego Do You Need to Succeed?

The Hidden Downside of Winning Friends and Influencing People

Do You Need a Life Coach or Should You Just Wing It?

Does Success Make You Happy or Does Happiness Make You Successful?

You’ll learn numerous techniques for breaking down negative barriers and letting go of the pessimistic thoughts that prevent you from fulfilling, or even allowing yourself to conceive of, your goals and dreams.

Chandler’s new edition also tunes, polishes, and strengthens the many popular and inspiring chapters from previous editions of this book, making them even more useful and relevant in today’s rapidly changing, globalized world.

The old psychological models that focused on past hurts and traumatic memories have given way to exciting new breakthroughs, like Dr. Martin Seligman’s work on post-traumatic strength and Dr. George Pransky’s work on human beings’ innate resilience and well-being. No more fixating on psychic wounds that occurred in childhood. Chandler’s new revision looks at the work of both of those pioneers and makes optimism available to people who never believed they could reinvent their old ways of being.

Get a Grip on Your Grammar250 Writing and Editing Reminders for the Curious or Confused Kris Spisak

Just as we should think before we speak, we need to think before we write.

Most of us are not poets or novelists, but we are all writers. We email, text, and post; we craft memos and reports, menus and outdoor signage, birthday cards and sticky notes on the fridge.

Get a Grip on Your Grammar is a grammar book for those who hate grammar books, a writing resource filled with quick answers and a play-ful style—not endless, indecipherable grammar jargon.

Get a Grip on Your Grammar is The Elements of Style for the Twitter gen-eration. Designed for student, business, and creative-writing audiences alike, its easily digestible, occasionally witty writing tips will finally teach you:

The differences between “lay” and “lie.”

The proper usage of “affect” and “effect.”

Where to put punctuation around quotation marks.

The meaning of “e.g.” versus “i.e.”

The perils of overusing the word “suddenly.”

That apostrophes should not be thrown about like confetti.

And 243 more great tips.

Writers owe it to themselves and to everyone who sees their written words to get it right. With Get a Grip on Your Grammar, they finally can (not “may”).

Problem Solved A Powerful System for Making Complex Decisions with Confidence and Conviction

Cheryl Strauss Einhorn Foreword by Tony Blair, former UK Prime Minister

“Einhorn shows how good decision-making is part imagination and part science. This excellent book shows how the science of decision-making can be applied and therefore the outcome made better.”

—Tony Blair

It can be messy and overwhelming to figure out how to solve thorny problems. Where do you start? How do you know where to look for information and evaluate its quality and bias? How can you feel confident that you are making a careful and thoroughly researched decision?

Whether you are deciding between colleges, navigating a career decision, helping your aging parents find the right housing, or expanding your business, Problem Solved will show you how to use the powerful AREA Method to make complex personal and professional decisions with confi-dence and conviction.

Cheryl’s AREA Method coaches you to make smarter, better decisions because it:

Recognizes that research is a fundamental part of decision making and breaks down the process into a series of easy-to-follow steps.

Solves for problematic mental shortcuts such as bias, judgment, and assumptions.

Builds in strategic stops that help you chunk your learning, stay focused, and make your work work for you.

Provides a flexible and repeatable process that acts as a feedback loop.

Life is filled with uncertainty, but that uncertainty needn’t hobble us. Problem Solved offers a proactive way to work with, and work through, ambiguity to make thoughtful, confident decisions despite our uncertain and volatile world.

7 Principles of Transformational LeadershipCreate a Mindset of Passion, Innovation, and Growth

Hugh Blane

In the world of work, the single greatest asset of successful individuals, teams, and organizations is their mindset—what happens in between their ears. It’s not the corporate strategy, the sales compensation plan, or the market segments they’re pursuing. It is what each leader, team member, and employee chooses to focus on, to believe, and to create for themselves and others.

7 Principles of Transformational Leadership presents the fundamen-tal concepts whose implementation will result in dramatic revenue, per-formance, and relationship growth. Specifically, leaders will learn to:

Live their professional and personal lives with unbridled purpose and passion.

Execute strategic priorities more effectively and with accelerated results.

Retain the brightest and best talent.

Have employees, key stakeholders, and managers enthusiastically follow them.

Be exemplars of innovation, growth, and positive mindsets.

Cascade excellence throughout their organizations.

You may have employees with all the talent in the world, but you’ll never achieve remarkable results until you change your employees’ mindset. 7 Principles of Transformational Leadership will help you convert your human potential into accelerated business results.

Thriving in the Gig EconomyHow to Capitalize and Compete in the New World of Work

Marion McGovern

In the last five years, the world of work has changed dramatically. Thanks to technology companies like Uber, Airbnb, TaskRabbit, and Instacart, the new “gig economy” seems to constantly be in the news. But most of the media focus is on the low end of the skill spectrum; little attention is being paid to the best-in-class professionals who have chosen an indepen-dent path. New digital talent platforms are developing at a rapid clip with a wide variety of business models, many catering to very precise, high-value skill sets.

Thriving in the Gig Economy is an actionable guidebook outlining ways to maneuver in this new world to create a path that optimizes success. You will learn:

How the gig economy differs from the sharing and on-demand economies.

Best ways to work with digital talent platforms and traditional consulting intermediaries.

Commonsense logistics around digital branding, contracts, and employment issues.

How to take advantage of the gig economy ecosystem to access tools and services to enhance your practice.

The growth in this marketplace is exponential and Thriving in the Gig Economy is one way for you to take advantage of all its potential.

The Workplace Engagement SolutionFind a Common Mission, Vision, and Purpose with All of Today’s Employees

David Harder

Organizations around the world spend billions of dollars every year to awaken and engage their employees. Yet global employee engagement remains fixed—at 13%.

The disengagement problem usually begins with the CEO telling human resources to fix it. Unless the CEO or business owner takes charge of engagement, everyone will look over the messenger’s shoulders to pick up cues from the top leader.

Most workers can’t engage because they are overwhelmed trying to keep up with change. This problem speaks to a much deeper need. We need to teach our workers how to change themselves.

In The Workplace Engagement Solution, David Harder will help you:

Learn how a CEO or business owner can successfully lead culture awakening.

Gain the life skills that help employees change and reinvent themselves.

Build a caring, mentor-driven culture that ensures category-leading engagement.

Routinely create enthusiastic and loyal customers as an outcome of your culture.

After watching his wife and friends

struggle through a recession, Douglas

A. Boneparth wanted to invest in

his peers, regardless of whether they

could invest in him. He founded Bone

Fide Wealth, LLC, a boutique wealth

management firm in New York City that specializes

in helping Millennials achieve their goals. Douglas is

a rising financial expert in the media and serves as

an ambassador for the Certified Financial Planner

Board of Standards. Visit Douglas online at @doug-

boneparth and at www.BoneFideWealth.com.

Heather J. Boneparth is Douglas’s mar-

keting manager, counsel, and wife. In

2010, she graduated law school with hon-

ors and more than $200,000 in student

loan debt. After several years in private

practice, she left billable hours behind,

rekindled her love of writing, and created this book with

Douglas while on maternity leave. They recently moved

to the suburbs of Westfield, New Jersey.

The Millennial Money FixWhat You Need to Know about Budgeting, Debt, and Finding Financial Freedom

Douglas A. Boneparth, CFP®, and Heather J. Boneparth, Esq.

Make no mistake—Millennials matter. They are no longer those darn kids, mere children of the rainmakers and game changers. With Baby Boomers entering retirement, they aren’t even kids at all. Their ability to pursue their dreams will drive our economy, and their inability to do so could destroy it. In other words, if Millennials have a problem, then everyone has a problem.

The Millennial Money Fix first examines the complex challenges facing this generation, targeting their lack of financial education in school and at home, the rising cost of education and resultant student loan debt, and the career-crushing labor environment.

With candor and humor, it guides you through a lifetime of important concepts, including:

Identifying honest and realistic goals.

Selecting and paying for a college or graduate program.

Mastering cash flow to jumpstart your life.

Navigating the job landscape to do what you love.

Planning for marriage, babies, and all that gushy stuff.

Redefining retirement as your ability to do what you want.

The Millennial Money Fix is about learning the reasons for your financial problems and the mechanics of your solutions, for yourself and those to come.

The Power of People SkillsHow to Eliminate 90% of Your HR Problems and Dramatically Increase Team and Company Morale and Performance

Trevor Throness

People are the problem. They’re always the problem. If a business person goes home frustrated, if they talk with their significant other about it, if they lay awake at night stewing about it, inevitably the problem is some person at work—a colleague, subordinate, or boss.

Handling people issues is every leader’s major headache. It’s what takes up the majority of their time and—more important—the bulk of their head space. Every leader can and must develop this most important of all management skills.

The Power of People Skills will teach you that there’s one primary difference between a great culture and a poor one: a great culture insists on having star players in every key seat, and a poor culture tolerates under performers. In this powerful book, you will learn how to:

Make the people decisions that can double your results, relieve your stress, and cause team morale to soar.

Attract and retain the very best talent.

Deal with difficult people problems in an objective and kind way.

Overcome the reluctance we all share to confront under performers.

Permanently solve the problems causing most of your stress.

The Pleiadian PromiseA Guide to Attaining Groupmind, Claiming Your Sacred Heritage, and Activating Your Destiny

Christine Day, author of Pleiadian Initiations of Light

The Pleiadians are moving into a new era. Through the opening of a new multidimensional timeframe, a pure light frequency has activated the sacred timing of an important aspect of their commitment to us as a human race.

This is what the Pleiadians refer to as fulfilling the Promise that was set in place lifetimes ago. Now is the time for them to reveal to us as a human race the sacred aspects of who we are and what we need to do to become fully realized and fulfill our role on our Earth plane.

The energy of this Promise holds the key to our further awakening and the unfolding of our self-realization process on a multidimensional level. This Promise activates the revelations of understanding and knowledge to be given to all those who are seekers of Truth—information that will help us to understand this transition and the role we need to play to fully open ourselves to our magnificence.

A series of blessed revelations align you to a deeper natural aspect of your own humanness and spirituality. The Pleiadian Promise also includes six channeled audio files that give you a direct experience with the Pleiadians through multidimensional levels of light initiations.

A Call from HeavenPersonal Accounts of Deathbed Visits, Angelic Visions, and Crossings to the Other Side

Josie Varga, author of Divine Visits and Visits from Heaven Foreword by Dr. Peter Fenwick, co-author of The Art of Dying

What happens when we die? Do we really die alone? What if death is not the end but a new beginning?

As the dying prepare to leave this world, they often begin to get a glimpse of what lies beyond through deathbed visits from deceased loved ones, strangers, and angelic or divine figures. Religious beliefs appear to have no bearing on these experiences—even atheists and nonbelievers have report-ed such phenomena. At times these visits are experienced by others in the room, offering incredible validity to the idea that life truly does continue.

A Call from Heaven will:

Report a wide variety of recent, documented deathbed visits from around the world.

Introduce you to the many different forms of deathbed phenomena, including angelic visions, shared-death experiences, gateway or portal appearances, and many others.

Highlight accredited research by renowned experts and scientists.

Present substantial evidence—perhaps the most compelling to date— that we do not die alone.

A Call from Heaven illustrates that death is not the end and that we all will be guided to the other side, comforting those who are grieving and removing the fear of death for all of us.

One Voice, Sacred WisdomRevealing Answers to Some of Life’s Greatest Mysteries from Your Guides, Spirits, and Angels

James Schwartz

Why are we here on this planet? What happens when we die? Is there such a thing as karma? Is there an afterlife? Is there a secret to healing the physical body?

Those were the mysteries James Schwartz set out to answer in One Voice, Sacred Wisdom, a groundbreaking exploration of spiritual questions we have all pondered. Using a process called alchemical hypnosis, he was able to gather information from clients who were in direct communication with their guides and angels. And from those sessions—about life, death, karma, parallel planes, healing, and why we exist—come new insights that may challenge many of the spiritual beliefs that we have come to accept.

Highlights of One Voice, Sacred Wisdom include:

Actual transcripts of clients experiencing the phenomena of visiting different planes of existence during their hypnosis sessions.

A fascinating explanation—from the guides—of how parallel planes can actually exist and how time operates to accommodate them.

A compilation of information from hundreds of guides who shared their wisdom in hypnosis sessions.

One Voice, Sacred Wisdom is a must-read guide for anyone searching for answers, whether you walk the path of traditional religion or are an independent seeker of spiritual truths.

The Fearless PathA Radical Awakening to Emotional Healing and Inner Peace

Leah Guy

Leah Guy believes that disconnection is the root of all fear, and the attempt at letting go causes more problems than it solves. Debunking the myth of detachment and other popular New Age ideologies, she emphasizes that there’s no escapism in emotional healing. Rather, the process is about put-ting the personal pieces of your heart, mind, and soul back together again. The Fearless Path offers a radical approach that will heal trauma, fear, heartache, and improve mental and physical health.

Overcoming anxiety, sexual abuse, eating disorders, and addiction using the principles in this book, Leah has spent her life helping others find relief and freedom from personal afflictions.

In The Fearless Path, you will learn:

Why “letting go” is the worst advice for healing, and how to really move on.

How to understand the stories your energy system tells about your mind, body, and spirit—and how to rewrite the script.

Frank Joseph’s magazine articles

about the development of mili-

tary aviation have appeared with

the U.S. Department of Defense,

including official yearbooks for

the Navy and Air Force. As a

writer for Aviation Heritage,

Command, Piloting Careers, and The Barnes

Review, he met such prominent public figures as

test pilot Chuck Jaeger, Secretary of State John

Kerry, and Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura.

Joseph’s World War II Turning Points was pub-

lished in 2015, preceded by Mussolini’s War and

The Axis Air Forces. His interviews of World War

I pilots resulted in Joseph’s first book on the sub-

ject, Last of the Red Devils, plus feature articles

for Britain’s FlyPast and Air Classics. Joseph lives

today with his wife, Laura, in Colfax, Wisconsin.

The Real War of the WorldsA History of Close Encounters between Earth’s Armed Forces and Extraterrestrial Intruders

Frank Joseph

The Real War of the Worlds is being published on the centennial anniversary of a little-known but frightening conflict—a covert series of skirmishes between mankind and nonhuman beings from beyond the Earth.

They began precisely 100 years ago when a famous pilot shot down a silvery, 136-foot-wide disc over the French countryside. Ever since, the armed forces of virtually every nation have engaged in seldom reported, often desperate confrontations with similar craft in a campaign that con-tinues to this day. Lives have been lost; details have been covered up.

The Real War of the Worlds is the first comprehensive history of this silent struggle. As such, it differs from all other books about UFOs because it focuses exclusively on the fully documented testimony of the most trustworthy professional observers—eyewitnesses and veterans of battles with extraterrestrial intruders, including numerous extraordinary accounts, such as:

How the Sixth Massachusetts National Guard engaged in a firefight with a threatening spacecraft during World War I.

How the F-16 of an Iranian fighter pilot was sent into a crash dive by a glowing disc in 1985.

What WikiLeaks reveals about human-alien military encounters in the 21st century.

Beyond the Bermuda TriangleTrue Encounters with Electronic Fog, Missing Aircraft, and Time Warps

Bruce Gernon and Rob MacGregor

I didn’t believe in time travel or teleportation until it happened to me.

I’m Bruce Gernon, and I flew through the heart of the Bermuda Triangle before I’d even heard the term. Skeptics have dismissed the Triangle as a nonmystery, but they weren’t in my airplane when the fog surrounded my craft and I leaped ahead 100 miles. I documented what happened and memorized every detail of that flight.

Now I’m ready to explain that there is no Bermuda Triangle! Instead, there is a continuing mystery that has resulted in thousands of disappear-ances of crafts and loss of life over decades and centuries: a phenomenon I call electronic fog.

In Beyond the Bermuda Triangle, Rob MacGregor and I present mul-tiple cases of pilots and others who have experienced electronic fog in the air, in the water, and on land. We also examine UFO and USO cases and their possible relationship with space/time warps. Among the fascinating topics we explore:

Time travel and teleportation.

Lost crafts, including Flight 19.

The Dragon’s Triangle.

The Underwater Area 51.

The man who is building a warp drive.

A remote viewer who takes on the Triangle.

The Power of ArchetypesHow to Use Universal Symbols to Understand Your Behavior and Reprogram Your Subconscious

Marie D. Jones, author of 11:11 The Time Prompt Phenomenon

Deep within your mind is a realm filled with powerful symbols that drive your thoughts, behaviors, and actions—often without your knowledge. This is the hidden world of “archetypes”: universal symbols responsible for who you are, how the world sees you, and what you believe about yourself and your life’s purpose.

The Power of Archetypes will help you identify, understand, and work with the archetypes that exist beyond your conscious awareness to create your reality “behind the scenes.” You will also learn how to clear out old symbols that may be blocking you from the happiness and success you dream of. You will examine:

The roles of the subconscious and collective unconscious in shaping your identity, and why it is so hard to change “you.”

The most common archetypes and what they symbolize.

Global archetypes in religion, politics, and pop culture, and how they affect you.

How to identify archetypes working in your life and develop the skills to change them and become more authentic.

Archetypes reveal your plot and your purpose. The good news is, if you don’t like them, you can choose more empowering symbols to create a completely new story of your life.

Cover-Up at RoswellExposing the 70-Year Conspiracy to Suppress the Truth

Donald R. Schmitt, best-selling coauthor of Witness to Roswell

As we approach the 70th anniversary of the most significant UFO event of all time, best-selling author Donald R. Schmitt takes a fresh look at the renowned incident. Previous books on Roswell, including his, have focused on the witnesses, their families, and the history of the case. Cover-Up at Roswell catalogs the extreme measures the U.S. Government exercised to suppress the truth.

How they silenced military witnesses clearly demonstrates their need to pre-vent the facts from leaking out. But more disconcerting are the tactics used against civilians and the media.

Over the years, the government has actually issued four different explana-tions for what took place in 1947, and yet Roswell remains a mystery, shrouded in secrecy, cover-ups, and deception. Is a fifth explanation at hand?

Cover-Up at Roswell includes fascinating new information, such as:

The most comprehensive timeline of events ever written.

What the base commander’s secretary confessed.

The answers to the 20 most frequently asked questions about Roswell.

The Roswell “smoking gun,” provided by one of the very arbiters of the cover-up.

The search for the truth about Roswell continues. Are we brave enough to accept it?
