Hardback. Etat : Good. In 1989, while waiting for her children to emerge from their private high school in San Francisco, Linda Mornell observed a young man hanging back from the others. She knew he was a scholarship student and thought that surely he had it made: full tuition, competitive academic school, college prospects. But his body language was telling a different story. Instantly sympathetic, Linda knew her own children, coming from public school backgrounds, also had trouble adjusting. Embarking on summer programs, especially the challenging ones, had made all the difference. Although sometimes reluctant to go, they returned home more resilient, self-assured, and better prepared to face the challenges of the school year ahead. Linda was struck by an idea. Why couldn t low-income kids also have these experiences? Not only would it expand their world but it could help them develop an internal compass that could change them forever. Today, more than 25 years later, that idea and the organization she founded, Summer Search, has transformed the lives of thousands of adolescents from seven different cities. Forever Changed is the incredible true story of courageous students who took on life-changing summer experiences to discover who they really were and what they were capable of becoming. It details the challenges and triumphs of both the students and their mentors as they navigate and interrupt paths that, for many, seemed destined for failure. For families and educators interested in adolescent development, this book documents the remarkable transformation that going for hard can bring to all young people.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Find your next job like a headhunter does I'm a headhunter of 15-years. Back during the recession, every interview counted. You couldn't afford to make a mistake when you had a shot at one of the very few jobs available. To help the candidates I was representing, I created a manual to guide them in their job search. Over time, the manual grew. My candidates were winning the job 7 out of 10 times over other candidates going after the same jobs on their own or from other recruiters. And that is how Headhunter Hiring Secrets was born (version 2.0 released in 2016). Released as a self-published book in January 2010, it has now (as of Feb. 2017) reached 54,631 people. Today, despite improvements in the economy and job market, competition for new jobs, particularly the really good jobs, is still fierce and very challenging. And another factor to consider is this - according to LinkedIn (2017 survey), 52% of currently employed men and women state they are interested in exploring new career opportunities. That's as many as 73 million people who are now (or soon will be) competing for a finite number of available jobs. Therefore, those who are the best prepared to effectively compete in today's still dynamic job market will have the best chance to be hired for one of these new jobs. Here are some highlights: Avoid the shadows on the wall syndrome (saying or doing something during an interview that makes the hiring manager uneasy and even afraid about your candidacy).Lead the Witness, i.e., the hiring manager, to take the interview in the direction you desire.Ask questions Superstars ask during a job interview.Answer tricky Gotcha questions, e.g., Tell me about yourself. How do you get along with your current boss? Why should I hire you?Close the interview on a high note, making sure you not only stand out from the competition, but also that you stay in the game Also included are excellent practical examples of: Job-winning resumes.Targeted, effective cover letters.A wide variety of telephone scripts that actually work.Direct mail letters to use in campaigns.Emails that will get you job interviews and sell (and re-sell) your candidacy. Here's to winning the job.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Do what you can. Start where you are. I think you'll find, as I have found, that when you help make other people's dreams come true, your own dreams will come true as well.-Laura QirkoTo say that Mother Teresa, now recognized as St. Teresa of Kolcata (formerly known as Calcutta in English), has impacted millions of people from around the world who have never even seen her in person-much less met her, touched her, talked with her-would be an understatement of epic proportions. But for those who did meet her, talk with her, and were touched by her-like Laura Qirko (Cher-ko)-her impact reaches beyond the temporal and into the eternal.I am a humanitarian woman, Laura says. And I want to encourage everyone I encounter, whether I meet them in person or through the pages of my book, to join me in this mission. You don't have to be a millionaire to serve others. It costs nothing to love and respect each other. Mother Teresa once said, 'We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.'As you read the amazing story of Laura's humanitarian journey, you, too, will be inspired to make a difference right where you are- today.…

Hardback. Etat : Good. The riveting story of the rivalry between the two most renowned actresses of the nineteenth century: legendary Sarah Bernhardt, whose eccentricity on and off the stage made her the original diva, and mystical Eleonora Duse, who broke all the rules to popularize the natural style of acting we celebrate today.Audiences across Europe and the Americas clamored to see the divine Sarah Bernhardt swoon?and she gave them their money?s worth.
