Next Level or Why Smart People Make Big Money Mistakes and How to Correct Them

Next Level: What Insiders Know About Executive Success

Author: Scott Eblin

Much as Good to Great described what separates top companies from the rest, The Next Level shows new, current, and future executives what differentiates success and failure at the executive level. Every day, high performers are tapped to be executives and then left alone to figure out how to function successfully in their new role. When this happens, most new executives rely on strengths that served them well earlier in their careers. As executive coach Scott Eblin explains, this is why 40 percent of them fail. Moving successfully to the executive level requires knowing which behaviors and beliefs to drop, as well as which new ones to pick up. Like having a personal executive coach, this confidence-building book outlines a program for success for new and future executives and offers frank advice from accomplished senior executives on what to do and to avoid.

Advice for the Budding CEO From Fellow Insiders
Every executive had to start somewhere—that first big promotion that bumped them to senior management. The great ones knew what to bring with them to their new position and what to leave behind. This is the premise of The Next Level: What Insiders Know About Executive Success by Scott Eblin, who describes himself as a "former Fortune 500 HR executive."

The book is divided into three main sections. The Foundations of Personal Presence covers topics such as maintaining confidence, sustaining your energy level and communicating effectively. The Foundations of Team Presence looks at effective delegation and issues of accountability. The Foundations of Organizational Presence offers advice on maintaining the proper perspective and presence within the organization.

All That You Should Leave Behind
Each of the three sections is further broken down into lessons presented according to what you should "pick up" and what you should "let go."

One chapter, for instance, advocates that the reader "pick up looking left and right as you lead" and "let go of looking primarily up and down as you lead." The goal, according to the author, is to create relationships with your peers and avoid what he refers to as "vertical tunnel vision," the tendency to only pay attention to what those above you and below you are doing.

Another chapter recommends that one "pick up defining what to do" and "let go of telling how to do it." This can be a particularly tall order for most managers. After all, promotions are generally given to people who excel at what they do. It can be tempting, therefore, to view your methods as the best and/or only way to accomplish a task. Eblin suggests, however, that the best leaders guide their employees by establishing clear and firm guidelines, then allowing them to do the work their own way.

Each chapter ends with 10 tips for putting Eblin's advice into play. The tips range from practical observations to sage mantras. "Avoid the unintended consequences that stem from 'thinking out loud' in front of subordinates," the author advises at the end of his chapter on taking a "big footprint view" of your role. The chapter on accountability includes the tip, "Learn to derive satisfaction from the fact that the work got done, not that you did it."

The Right Tools for the Right Job
Perhaps the most useful tools, however, are the two appendices included at the end of the book. The first is a guide to creating an Executive Success Plan or "ESP." Eblin recommends the plan be used with the help of an "executive coach," but provides clear instructions for those who want to do it themselves.

He lists the principles discussed in the book and encourages readers to seek input from colleagues about how they fare in each area. Readers are then advised to analyze the results, identify areas for improvement and seek ongoing advice from the "feedback team."

Appendix B is the Situation Solutions Guide. This table contains various dilemmas common among those navigating new positions referenced against the corresponding chapter containing the appropriate advice.

Overall, Eblin's book provides the advice that no one ever thinks to give you on taking the leap to the next level. And it's good advice, from experienced executives, that's useable today.

Why We Like This Book
The Next Level is full of practical advice that is clearly stated. It is designed to be referred to repeatedly, and Eblin's use of lists and tables helps to ensure that the reader can quickly find the answers they are looking for. This book is excellent for individuals looking to make it to the next level, as well as executive coaches that want to use it as a reference tool with clients.

Why Smart People Make Big Money Mistakes and How to Correct Them: Lessons From the New Science of Behavioral Economics

Author: Gary Belsky

Why do so many otherwise smart people make foolish financial choices? Why do investors sell stocks just before they skyrocket -- and cling to others as they plummer? Why do shoppers overspend when using credit cards rather than cash? What do our habits of tipping or buying lottery tickets indicate about our relationship with money?

In this fascinating investigation of the ways we spend, invest, save, borrow, and waste money, Gary Belsky and Thomas Gilovich reveal the psychological causes -- the patterns of thinking and decision making -- of irrational behavior. Most important, they focus on the decisions we make every day and, using entertaining examples, provide invaluable tips on avoiding the financial faux pas that can cost thousands of dollars each year.

Brag!: The Art of Tooting Your Own Horn Without Blowing It

Author: Peggy Klaus

In today's competitive business world, bragging is a necessity -- not a choice! Remaining quiet about yourself or, worse, downplaying your successes leads to being underappreciated, or even allowing others to take credit for your achievements. When done with grace and style, bragging promotes your best asset -- you! Now a top business coach teaches you to artfully communicate your talents and accomplishments without feeling or sounding like a walking billboard. You'll gain the motivation and skills that lead to gem assignments, raises, promotions, and stronger professional relationships. And you'll enjoy tooting your own horn in a way that is sincere, feels comfortable, and doesn't turn off those you're trying to impress. Filled with self-promotion dilemmas and solutions for both your professional and personal life, and written for everyone from telecommuters to those who are between jobs, BRAG! shows you how to put your best foot forward -- while keeping it out of your mouth!

Publishers Weekly

"Using the same techniques that have turned thousands of professionals and executives into skillful self-promoters," Klaus, a Fortune 500 communication consultant, teaches how to make an impact in today's unstable business market by becoming "a master of artful bragging." Klaus's persuasive writing style and authentic tone combined with real-life anecdotes culled from her 10 years conducting training seminars show off the transformative effect successful bragging can have on a career (including the author's own), while deflating any fears readers may have of coming off as phony, arrogant or obnoxious. Creating a "bragalogue"(or short, enthusiastic, continually updated story showcasing strengths and accomplishments) that you can deliver comfortably and sincerely is key to "planting seeds for the future" or standing out in interviews, performance reviews or networking situations. Sample conversations, self-evaluation surveys, advice on avoiding common bragging pitfalls, hints on body language and concrete tips for stay-at-home moms, freelancers, retirees and recent college grads lend a hands-on feel to this valuable business primer.

The Craftsman or Value Investing

The Craftsman

Author: Richard Sennett

Defining craftsmanship far more broadly than “skilled manual labor,” Richard Sennett maintains that the computer programmer, the doctor, the artist, and even the parent and citizen engage in a craftsman’s work. Craftsmanship names the basic human impulse to do a job well for its own sake, says the author, and good craftsmanship involves developing skills and focusing on the work rather than ourselves. In this thought-provoking book, one of our most distinguished public intellectuals explores the work of craftsmen past and present, identifies deep connections between material consciousness and ethical values, and challenges received ideas about what constitutes good work in today’s world.

 

The Craftsman engages the many dimensions of skill—from the technical demands to the obsessive energy required to do good work. Craftsmanship leads Sennett across time and space, from ancient Roman brickmakers to Renaissance goldsmiths to the printing presses of Enlightenment Paris and the factories of industrial London; in the modern world he explores what experiences of good work are shared by computer programmers, nurses and doctors, musicians, glassblowers, and cooks. Unique in the scope of his thinking, Sennett expands previous notions of crafts and craftsmen and apprises us of the surprising extent to which we can learn about ourselves through the labor of making physical things.

The New York Times - Lewis Hyde

Richard Sennett's "guiding intuition" in The Craftsman is that "making is thinking"…Sennett's book gathers case after case in which we see how the work of the hand can inform the work of the mind. Moreover, it is through his insistence that thought arises in relation to craft that Sennett comes to one of his more intriguing interventions, a reimagining of the Enlightenment in terms not of ideas but of how craftsmen learned to work. "The hand is the window on to the mind," Immanuel Kant wrote, and Sennett asks that we not pass through that window until we have adequately studied the hand.

Value Investing: From Graham to Buffett and Beyond

Author: Bruce C N Greenwald

From the "guru to Wall Street's gurus" comes the fundamental techniques of value investing and their applications Bruce Greenwald is one of the leading authorities on value investing. Some of the savviest people on Wall Street have taken his Columbia Business School executive education course on the subject. Now this dynamic and popular teacher, with some colleagues, reveals the fundamental principles of value investing, the one investment technique that has proven itself consistently over time. After covering general techniques of value investing, the book proceeds to illustrate their applications through profiles of Warren Buffett, Michael Price, Mario Gabellio, and other successful value investors. A number of case studies highlight the techniques in practice.
Bruce C. N. Greenwald (New York, NY) is the Robert Heilbrunn Professor of Finance and Asset Management at Columbia University. Judd Kahn, PhD (New York, NY), is a member of Morningside Value Investors. Paul D. Sonkin (New York, NY) is the investment manager of the Hummingbird Value Fund. Michael van Biema (New York, NY) is an Assistant Professor at the Graduate School of Business, Columbia University.

BusinessWeek - Robert Barker

Individual investors in the Internet Age are blessed with information. We also are cursed with too much of the stuff, from real-time quotes to streaming videos of fund managers. This info-clutter extends to books, and cutting through it can be difficult, even dispiriting, when you see how little thought goes into so many books. That's why I've spent part of the summer doing it for you. And the new title most deserving of your time is Value Investing: From Graham to Buffett and Beyond. Its authors, Columbia Business School faculty members Bruce C.N. Greenwald and Michael Van Biema and fund managers Paul D. Sonkin and Judd Kahn, aim to place their work next to Benjamin Graham's 1950 classic, The Intelligent Investor. My 1986 edition came with Warren Buffett's endorsement—"by far the best book on investing ever written." Value Investing is better.

San Jose Mercury News - David A. Sylvester

No one can doubt there's an urgent need to think clearly about investing, since many investors in Silicon Valley companies have suffered a stock market decline comparable to the Crash of '29. The burned investor could find no better starting place than this superb book by four New York City value investors, all descended from the master of value investing, Benjamin Graham.... They have written one of the most intelligent overviews of investing I've ever read, combining analytical rigor with intuitive description.

SmartMoney Magazine - Paul Sturm

Greenwald is a conventional economist (Ph.D. from MIT who caught the value bug. He has updated and expanded Graham's ideas, and his summer seminars ($2,900 for two days have become popular with everyone from well-known money managers to Columbia MBAs who couldn't get into Greenwald's class. But now there is a cheaper way to learn from Greenwald: He and three colleagues have just published "Value Investing: From Graham to Buffett and Beyond." Greenwald probably won't outsell Graham, but I think he ought to.

Booknews

Innovator's Dilemma: The Revolutionary Book That will Change the Way You Do Business

Author: Clayton M Christensen

In this revolutionary bestseller, Harvard professor Clayton M. Christensen says outstanding companies can do everything right and still lose their market leadership -- or worse, disappear completely. And he not only proves what he says, he tells others how to avoid a similar fate.

Focusing on "disruptive technology" -- the Honda Super Cub, Intel's 8088 processor, or the hydraulic excavator, for example -- Christensen shows why most companies miss "the next great wave." Whether in electronics or retailing, a successful company with established products will get pushed aside unless managers know when to abandon traditional business practices. Using the lessons of successes and failures from leading companies, The Innovator's Dilemma presents a set of rules for capitalizing on the phenomenon of disruptive innovation.

Find out:

  • When it is right not to listen to customers.
  • When to invest in developing lower-performance products that promise lower margins.
  • When to pursue small markets at the expense of seemingly
  • larger and more lucrative ones.

Sharp, cogent, and provocative, The Innovator's Dilemma is one of the most talked-about books of our time -- and one no savvy manager or entrepreneur should be without.



The Wealth of Nations or Think and Grow Rich

The Wealth of Nations (Barnes & Noble Library of Essential Reading)

Author: Adam Smith

Adam Smith is often considered the first modern economist. His magnum opus, The Wealth of Nations (1776) is widely credited with laying the theoretical and philosophical foundations for capitalism. The work had an immediate impact on economic thinking, in light of its arguments for the freedom of trade. The Wealth of Nations is far more than a treatise of economic theory, however. In this work Smith presents a powerful blueprint for a stable and peaceful society which rests upon a hard-headed and realistic assessment of humans and their natures.



Adam Smith was born in the small Scottish town of Kircaldy in 1723. He became a professor of logic at Glasgow University in 1751 and shortly thereafter a professor of moral philosophy. In 1759, he published his first great work, The Theory of Moral Sentiments, which established his reputation as a leading philosopher in Europe. The Wealth of Nations made him an eminent man of letters and led to his appointment as Commissioner of Customs in Edinburgh.

Think and Grow Rich: A Black Choice

Author: Dennis Paul Kimbro

"An inspiring an powerful success guide."
ESSENCE
Author and entrepreneur Dennis Kimbro combines bestseeling author Napolean Hilll's law of success with his own vast knowledge of business, contemporary affairs, and the vibrant culture of Black America to teach you the secrets to success used by scores of black Americans, including: Spike Lee, Jesse Jackson, Dr. Selma Burke, Oprah Winfrey, and many others. The result is inspiring, practical, clearly written, and totally workable. Use it to unlock the treasure you have always dreamed of--the treasure that at last is within your reach.

Library Journal

Kimbro has tailored this deft rewriting of Napoleon Hill's ever-popular classic Think and Grow Rich (1937) to a black audience. Addressing issues like racism and poverty that can affect the achievement of black Americans, he offers a quick tour through black history, highlighting the stories of successful contemporary African Americans like Oprah Winfrey and publisher John Johnson. It works on the same level that the original did and should generate demand among African American patrons. An essential purchase for most institutional libraries, where all self-help books are in high demand.-- Anita L. Cole, Miami-Dade P.L. System, Fla.

BookList

Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" and "Law of Success", in their many various versions, have sold millions of copies. Some time after his death in 1970, it was reported that Hill had left an unfinished manuscript targeting black America with his message of self-confidence and affirmative outlook. Kimbro, a black writer and lecturer for the Napoleon Hill Foundation, adapted and updated Hill's manuscript, which argues that such barriers as racism, discrimination, and lack of opportunity should not be self-defeating obstacles.

Ultimate Sales Machine or Think Big and Kick Ass in Business and Life

Ultimate Sales Machine: Turbocharge Your Business with Relentless Focus on 12 Key Strategies

Author: Chet Holmes

Chet Holmes has been called "one of the top 20 change experts in the country." He helps his clients blow away both the competition and their own expectations. And his advice starts with one simple concept: focus! Instead of trying to master four thousand strategies to improve your business, zero in on the few essential skill areas that make the big difference.

Too many managers jump at every new trend, but don't stick with any of them. Instead, says Holmes, focus on twelve critical areas of improvement—one at a time—and practice them over and over with pigheaded discipline.

The Ultimate Sales Machine shows you how to tune up and soup up virtually every part of your business by spending just an hour per week on each impact area you want to improve. Like a tennis player who hits nothing but backhands for a few hours a week to perfect his game, you can systematically improve each key area.

Holmes offers proven strategies for:
• Management: Teach your people how to work smarter, not harder
• Marketing: Get more bang from your Web site, advertising, trade shows, and public relations
• Sales: Perfect every sales interaction by working on sales, not just in sales
The Ultimate Sales Machine will put you and your company on a path to success and help you stay there!
