Getting the job done isn't enough these days. Today's organizations need more. More innovation. More decisive action. More risk-taking. More pull-out-the-stops performance. Now more than ever, we need ability. People who have it aren't just sought after--they can write their own ticket. Forget the old saying, "Leaders are born." It's simply untrue. Leaders are leaders because they've mastered certain skills and qualities. And by using those skills they ignite excellence in themselves and everyone around them. Lou Heckler outlines in clear, concise detail the qualities of leadership and the step-by-step techniques that you will need to put them into action. Listen--and then write your own ticket to career success.

Unlimited Power: The New Science Of Personal Achievement

Anthony Robbins, Nightingale-Conant Corporation

Neurolinguistic programming is a relatively new science that studies how people communicate to themselves. It is the study of how our language, both verbal and non-verbal, affects our nervous system and everything we do. Those who are able to produce outstanding results do so by producing specific communications to their nervous system. Using NLP, as it is more commonly called, we direct our own states of mind and behavior and learn to communicate to ourselves in a particular way so as to produce the results we desire. According to Science Digest NLP may be the most important synthesis of knowledge about human communication.
