Buy on Saturday 25th and receive 'Successful Minute Taking - Meeting the Challenge; How to Prepare, Write and Organise Agendas and Minutes of Meetings' By Heather Baker
'This is a superb book. I wish it had read it before I started organising meetings, writing agendas and taking minutes years ago! It is full of really good tips and is very clear and easy to read. This will really help with coaching and mentoring junior members of staff.' Amazon
Buy on Sunday 26th and receive 'Who Moved My Cheese: An
Amazing Way
to Deal with Change in Your Work and in Your Life' By Spencer Johnson
A short story about 2 mice and 2 'little people' in a maze looking for cheese.
Of course 'cheese' is just a metaphor for what you want in life (such as money, the ideal job), and the 'maze' represents where you are looking for what you want (such as your family, an organization). As the story goes, one of the characters (Haw) learns to deal with change successfully and writes what he has learned on the maze wall. In this way, the reader gets the main points in the book and can learn too how to deal with life's changes.
A little book that is big on wisdom, many should find it entertaining and useful.
Buy on Monday 27th and receive 'Inbox Detox' by Marsha Egan
A cure for the "Email Blues". Egan asks readers to cast a critical eye on their own email habits, provides a model, 12-Step Program Style, for dealing with those habits, and then details newer, more productive ones. Egan breaks down the email issue into its most basic problem: email misuse is a constant drain on productivity, and therefore a constant drain on the bank account. If you need to tame your email inbox, this book is the answer.
Buy on Tuesday 28th and receive 'Successful NLP: Quick and Easy Ways to Use Neuro-Linguistic Programming to Get Ahead in Life' by Jeremy Lazerus
'I'm an NLP Master Practitioner. I think this book hits the nail on the head on many levels: practically for the NLP Practitioner and Master Practitioner, and for the complete novice...well this was the book I was looking for 5 years ago when I was trying to find out more about NLP. Practical, easy to read and easy to understand and put into practice.' Amazon
Buy on Wednesday 29th and receive ' Walking Tall: Key Steps to Total Image Impact' by Lesley Everett.
This book is a must have for you to understand how your image effects the way people treat you initially and, more importantly, how it effects your business success. Over 90% of a person's first impression of you is based upon your image, how you dress and look and how you present yourself.
Buy on Thursday 30th and receive 'Whack Around the Head: Purpose Passion and Power at Work Right Now!' by Sharon Eden
'Sharon Eden is a brilliant author, an initiator and master of internal change. I dived straight into the book and I wasn't disappointed. Sharon uses positive language and engages the reader from the outset. The book is for everyone who wishes to 'live' their life and to celebrate their uniqueness and their 'own' great story! Every demon, excuse, voice, negative memory calling, is revisited and you really do run out of excuses to stay within 'your box' once you've finished the first few chapters! Sharon 's writing style is fun, dynamic and punchy. I never knew 'self improvement' could be this 'HOT'....Sharon Eden works 'magic'. The book is SENSATIONAL, Do you dare to to change your life?' Amazon 
Buy on Friday 1st and receive 'The New Executive Assistant: Advice for Succeeding in Your Career' by Melba Duncan
'"The New Executive Assistant" is a must-read for aspiring or seasoned executive assistants, their bosses, and everyone in between.
Ms. Duncan doesn't just advise you to develop a proactive rather than a reactive approach to your administrative career, she guides you to discovering both what you want out of life and what your career can provide. She covers all the important bases for surviving in today's fast-paced world: learning to adapt to change (technical and cultural); mastering the fundamentals of communicating what you really mean; tapping into your management and leadership potential; handling both yourself and others in conflict situations; promoting yourself, your boss, and your company; and regaining your spiritual "center". Most importantly, however, Ms. Duncan asks wether or not you are cut out to be an executive assistant. Life is too short to just have a job; whatever it may be, find a career that works for you, challenges you, and fits your personality.' Amazon
Packed with objective insights, advice, and enjoyable witticisms, "The New Executive Assistant" delivers. I found in this one book what countless seminars and 50-minute training series have not been able to provide; I found truely usable, relevant insights and information. Ms. Duncan has created a mentoring master piece for executive assistants (and anyone who wants to understand them)!
