  • Embrace Change for Success

    SUCCESS IN ONE’S CAREER IS DYNAMIC-NOT STATIC Whether it is on the job or in our personal lives, if we want to make progress, we must be willing to make changes-often major changes-in the way we do our jobs or live our lives. In this book, Dale Carnegie looks at the reasons why people often resist change and the steps that can be taken to overcome this resistance, through examples drawn from both personal and professional situations. He explains the overall concept of making change work for you, and provides suggestions on how these changes can help you on the road to success. Change may be mandated by ever-changing technologies. A downslide in economic factors may necessitate changes in systems and methods, to ensure survival. Conversely, change may become necessary after a surge in economy, in order to meet the new rise in demand of your services or goods.
    The areas covered in this book are:
    •Change as a step toward success
    •Adjusting to change
    •How and when change should be initiated
    •How to deal with change as part of a team
    •Reducing stress when dealing with change
    •Adjusting to working with people of diverse cultures
    •The gender and generational gaps in the workplace
    Reading this book can be the first step for you in coping with change, to start you on the track that has helped people in all careers to accept, adjust to, and often initiate changes that enabled their organizations to not only survive, but thrive, resulting in the acceleration of their own progress to success.

  • Empire of Dragons

    The town of Edessa, a Roman outpost, is on its last legs, besieged by the Persian troops of Shapur I. Roman Emperor Licinius Valerianus agrees to meet his adversary to draw up a peace treaty, but it is only a trap and the Emperor and his twelve guards are chained and dragged away to work as prisoners in a solitary Persian turquoise mine.

    After months of forced labour the Emperor dies, but his guards make a daring escape lead by the heroic and enigmatic chief, Marcus Metellus Aquila. They meet a mysterious, exiled Chinese Prince, Dan Qing, and agree to safeguard his journey home to reconquest his throne from his mortal enemy, a eunuch named Wei.

    Thus begins the adventures of the Romans and the Prince as they journey to China. There they will discover that they aren’t the first of their kind to arrive in China: they were preceded centuries before by the survivors of the ‘lost legion’.
