An Audio Bundle: Epic & Rough Water Audiobook

· Publishers Weekly 'Listen Up' Award Winner · ForeWord Magazine's 'Audiobook of the Year' Winner · AFIM Indie Award Winner · Independent Publisher Magazine’s ‘IPPY Award’ Finalist. Epic--a mountaineering term that evokes a sense of treacherous disaster. The climb that went wrong: fighting blinding snowstorms and horrific avalanches; days spent tentbound running low on food, water and oxygen; surviving broken bones and shattered spirits. With writing from Greg Child, David Roberts, Stephen Venables, Alfred Lansing and others, Epic is a collection of the most memorable accounts of legend-making expeditions to the world’s most famous peaks, often in the worst possible conditions! In Rough Water, hear the stories of men and women battling the elements, and sometimes each other, to stay alive, confronting savage storms, rogue waves, icebergs, sharks, starvation and their own fear and suffering. From Sebastian Junger’s The Whale Hunter to Herman Wouk’s The Caine Mutiny to Lawrence Beesley’s The Loss of The S.S. Titanic, Rough Water is a unique collection of the finest writing on why men and women go to sea, and what they find there!

The Pin Drop Principle: Captivate, Influence, and Communicate Better Using the Time-Tested Methods o

Sixty to eighty percent of our first impression of another person speaking is solidified within the first 4 minutes of their communication. In fact, studies have shown that up to 93% of our perception of that speaker is based solely on the delivery of their message, with the words being secondary. The Pin Drop Principle is a step-by-step master class for managers at all level wishing to become a more confident, credible and engaging communicator-no matter the audience, no matter the message. Authored by founders of one the of the most groundbreaking communication skills training firms in the world-Pinnacle Performance Company-The Pin Drop Principle introduces readers to the same set of performance-based delivery techniques relating to body language, vocal quality and intention that professional actors (and great communicators) have used successfully for centuries, and which Pinnacle teaches to more than 3,000 professionals every year. The Pin Drop Principle and the Pinnacle Method approaches the concept of effective communication from a unique angle: it focuses on the importance of putting passion and purpose behind your words by using the actor and presenter's secret weapons: objective and intention. The only way to be truly engaging when you are communicating is to clearly identify your objective and activate your intention to give your message meaning and relevance for the recipient--so that they walk away knowing why your message is important and what is in it for them. The more proficient communicators are at focusing on objective and intention the more successful they will be when communicating-in business and in life. Using each of its chapters as individual 'building blocks,' The Pin Drop Principle empowers managers with the essential tools required for effective communication. Topics include vocal dynamics, gestures and movements, storytelling, and other cornerstones of communicating well. Accessible to anyone who routinely needs to present their ideas, convey feedback effectively, conduct difficult conversations, and persuade others--from first level managers to seasoned executives-The Pin Drop Principle is a must-read.

The Brain Sell: When Science Meets Shopping; How the new mind sciences and the persuasion industry a

Science has made the leap from the lab to come to a store near you-and the effects on us are phenomenal. Corporations in hyper-competition are now using the new mind sciences to analyze how and when we shop, and the hidden triggers that persuade us to consume. From bargains in the Big Apple to the bustling bazaars of Istanbul, from in-store to interactive and online to mobile, neuromarketing pioneer Dr. David Lewis goes behind the scenes of the 'persuasion industry' to reveal the powerful tools and techniques, technologies and psychologies seeking to stimulate us all to buy more-often without us consciously realizing it. A revelatory inside story, The Brain Sell is a tale of engineered behaviors and 'atmospherics'; of subliminal messaging; and of TVs that sometimes watch us while we're watching them. During his journey, Lewis explores fascinating questions such as: Why should a particular font used to describe soup make it taste better? Why do some retailers actively encourage shoppers to haggle? How do the tools and techniques of 'the brain sell' influence shopper behavior, and what can you-as a retailer or marketer-learn from them? Informed, illuminating, stimulating: you cannot afford to miss The Brain Sell.
