Posted on by

Win A Copy Of 101 Business Ideas That Will Change The Way You WorkFrost Magazine has joined forces with Pearson — the world’s leading education publisher — to give away copies of new business guide, 101 Business Ideas That Will Change The Way You Work.

This illuminating title by respected business writer Antonio E. Weiss challenges long-held beliefs about good business practice to provide employers, managers and entrepreneurs with invaluable bite-sized nuggets of clever business insights.

Each idea in the 300-page book, described as a “box of chocolates for the managerial mind”, is neatly structured, giving a headline, summary and fun illustration, followed by snappy sections on ‘What You Need to Know’; ‘Why it Matters’; ‘What You Might Say About This’; ‘How This Will Change the Way You Work’ and ‘Where You Can Find Out More’.

And as each idea is covered in a few pages, 101 Business Ideas is the perfect book to dip in and out of when seeking another perspective or fresh inspiration.

The book’s author, Antonio E. Weiss, is a management writer and business consultant who has served leading public sector clients including central government and the NHS on strategy, performance improvement and capability building issues.

In writing 101 Business Ideas, Weiss has drawn upon the collective wisdom of contemporary business and social science thinkers including The New Yorker journalist Malcolm Gladwell and Israeli-American psychologist Daniel Kahnemann, winner of the 2002 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences.

It contains brilliant business tips and big ideas such as how to spot if a CEO is lying; why innovation can be overrated; why networking can make you anti-social; how biology affects your decision making; and why online procrastination actually accelerates productivity.

By telling readers what they need to know, why they need to know it and how to do it, 101 Business Ideas will ensure professionals are cannier, more effective at work and always one step ahead.

We have five copies of 101 Business Ideas That Will Change The Way You Work by Antonio E. Weiss (Pearson, RRP £12.99) to give away.

If you have a personal project or professional ambition that you’d love to realise, but aren’t sure where to begin then Make it Fly!, by change specialist Brigitte Cobb , could be just what you need.

In writing the book, Cobb has combined over 15 years of personal and business development
experience helping businesses transform their organisations to design a tried-and-tested ‘make-it-happen’ model.

As such, it is the first book of its kind to offer practical step-by-step guidance on making any dream project — such as a new business venture, house extension or slimmer figure — get off the groundand soar.

Across its 192 pages, the guide uniquely goes beyond goal setting and positive thinking to show in detail how to be clear about your dream (the ‘what’), put an action plan together (the ‘how’), and “get out of your own way” and deal with personal hang-ups (the ‘who’).

Clear and comprehensive, it provides a logical building block approach to get what you want in life — however big or small the idea, ambitious or wide-reaching — showing you how to take your big dream or vision and chunk it down into realistic, achievable steps.

Make it Fly! is more than a handy guide, it’s the reader’s own personal coach. Packed with
inspirational quotes and practical exercises to complete, the emphasis is firmly on action and readers are given full support as they progress through the steps and master new skills.

We have 10 copies of Make it Fly! by Brigitte Cobb (Pearson, RRP £10.99) to give away. For
