Getting to Great Idea! Stop Whining. Start Winning.

Stop Whining--and Start Winning by Frank Pacetta, Roger Gittines

Shepard, founder of the women's executive leadership firm the Leader's Edge, and Stimmler, a corporate communications expert, have identified eight areas that they say are holding women back and explain exactly what women should be doing to succeed—from aggressively networking and self-promoting, to relearning communications skills and availing themselves of mentors. While some of their guidance comes in the form of storytelling, much of it involves checklists, word-by-word dialogues and rigorous self-assessment questions and exams.

Jane Stimmler is principal of The Marketing Edge, a marketing consulting and communications firm. Would you like to tell us about a lower price?

While reading the book, I found myself shaking my head "YES" vigorously - and often which was drawing curious looks as I was on an airplane at the time. I thought this book did the most amazing job on the mentoring section. I've read lots of books, articles, etc.

KIRKUS REVIEW

Jane Stimmler is principal of The Marketing Edge, a marketing consulting and communications firm. It is comforting to have such a clear list of positive steps to create some foward momentum, and I think I'll make some changes very soon as a result of some of the book's insights. Some of the foundations he enjoys working with: Amazon Inspire Digital Educational Resources. What made sense to me, as someone outside but strongly supporting the campaign, was a multifold set of aims. We might not like it, but we too have to try to win just like athletic teams do.

It is comforting to have such a clear list of positive steps to create some foward momentum, and I think I'll make some changes very soon as a result of some of the book's insights. This amazing book was full of practical advice and tips you can easily incorporate everyday.

What separates this guide to success from other self help books is that Stop Whining and Start Winning is interactive. The quizzes and checklists helped me to identify my own weakness and understand what I need to do to help myself succeed.

Stay ahead with the world's most comprehensive technology and business learning platform.

I found this book very helpful since it was written by successful women who are currently out in the workforce. The quizzes were a great to to break down each point and make them stick in my mind. I was recently promoted in my office and, in part, I must thank the 2 authors for my newfound career confidence and success.
