Book Review - What's He Really Thinking

2010-05-21T12:52:00.001-04:00

What's He Really Thinking by Paula Reinhart, Thomas Nelson Publishing

I was totally intrigued by the sub-title of this book - How to be a Relational Genious with the Man in Your Life. Who can argue with that? Count me in.In this book, Paula writes about how men live life differently from women and how we as women can "get through to them" in the most effective way. She teaches us how to relate to this unique gender, who represents over half of the planet. Paula is practical, funny, insightful and sensitive in her assessment of how men develop differently from women and how we can take cues from their behavior to bring out the best in them, and us!

The Noticer - Quietly changing lives with a little "perspective", July 26, 2009

2009-07-26T08:42:00.001-04:00

Every once in awhile, you come across a book so special that you can't help but buy them in quantity to give away to friends and colleagues. The Noticer is one of those books.

Andy Andrews has crafted a story about an enigmatic man named Jones [just Jones] who appears in a beach town and touches a number of lives, in a very unusual way.

Jones uses history and literature and even the Bible to show various people why it is important to notice what is around you and especially to notice those things that others often overlook.

I found myself making a "reading" list as I was reading the book, wanting to take in Jones' wisdom by first hand experience with the characters that he would talk about. I have always loved biographies, but I tend to forget how powerful a force they can be.

Andy's writing style in this allegorical treat is easy and engaging. He pulls you into the lives of his characters and as it says on the fly of the book, gives you through the Noticer "your chance to regroup, take a breath, and begin your life again".

I loved the use of analogy in the story telling throughout the book and the obvious parallel to the Holy Spirit's influence on our lives, planting seed after seed and ensuring that it gets watered along the way, even in unexpected ways.

Bravo Andy Andrews for this masterful and highly impactful work. This isn't just fun reading. It will change lives.

NEW EGG Charter Member Benefit - Libby Gill offering COMPLEMENTARY coaching session

2009-04-03T07:42:00.006-04:00

This week at the TravelCom Women's Forum we were fortunate to have Libby Gill as the keynote at lunch, as well as having her as our guest at the private EGG Charter Member dinner Tuesday night. We had 23 women at the dinner, of which 4 were brand new EGG Charter members. An "eggcelent" time was had by all and the evening provided a foundation for new relationships, friendships and certainly a broader network for all who were there.

I am plesed to announce that Libby has agreed to provide the EGG Charter members a special offer on her coaching services:

First coaching session is Complementary - this is a $250 value
Ongoing coaching is 10% off her normal rate of $250 per hour

To arrange for your complementary coaching session you will have to be a current Charter Member (see member info) and then send your request to egg@solutionz.com. I will put you in touch with Libby.

Enjoy this new benefit!

Herb Kelleher is a real gentleman, a real card and quite entertaining! He is giving Henry of #Forrester a run for his money!

2009-04-01T11:59:00.003-04:00

Herb said "If it is conventional, it is not wisdom and if it is wisdom, it is not conventional". This was a quote from an analyst.

2009-04-01T11:59:00.001-04:00

Herb Kelleher won Steve Fosset innovator award at #TravelCom for #Southwest's accomplishments

2009-04-01T11:17:00.001-04:00

2009-04-01T10:11:00.001-04:00

Brad's topic is "the New Normal". We are not going back.....

2009-04-01T10:10:00.001-04:00

Brad Gerstner is talking about the economy at #Travelcom. Brad heads up #Altimeter Capital.

2009-04-01T09:59:00.001-04:00

#GDS is Global Distribution System technology - the tech that powers booking and pricing systems

2009-04-01T09:58:00.001-04:00

The fact that #Travelcom is talking about Twitter more than the GDS technology is a sign of the times.

2009-04-01T09:35:00.001-04:00

Travel Industry losses are not an April fools joke (unfortunately). Cancelled meetings and conventions results in lost jobs.

27MAR Vignette Speaker Liz Goodgold

2009-03-27T18:09:00.001-04:00

The audio of today's call is available. It is free for all Charter members and $10 for all others. Please send an email request to egg@solutionz.com. Payment can be made on the Solutionz site under Vignette Recording.

You can order Liz's book by clicking on the book image

Liz Goodgold is the author, senior media correspondent, and feisty red head you have seen on CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS and in The New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal. Many recognize her from her columns in Entrepreneur magazine reaching over 1 million each month.

Liz is a true American success story. Her own humble beginnings, unstoppable perseverance, and potent professional content make her a charming, funny and motivating force.

Despite early challenges, Liz started working for Arco Oil as a lobbyist and by the time she was 18, she was taking such luminaries as Bob Dole and Henry Waxman to lunch!

She now boasts 25 years of experience in every area of marketing, naming, branding, advertising and new media.

Liz’s early successes came when she had a chance to prove herself with the industry giants Quaker Oats, Macmillan Publishing and Times Mirror.

She took her first campaign for Times Mirror from infancy to a $9 million revenue stream.

In less than six months at Quaker Oats, she turned what was at the time, their little known Natural Cereal into the exclusive granola in more than 1500 Baskin-Robbins and TCBY stores.

Please join us on the 27th to hear Liz.

Liz Goodgold is the author, senior media correspondent, and feisty red head you have seen on CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS and in The New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal. Many recognize her from her columns in Entrepreneur magazine reaching over 1 million each month.

Liz is a true American success story. Her own humble beginnings, unstoppable perseverance, and potent professional content make her a charming, funny and motivating force.

Despite early challenges, Liz started working for Arco Oil as a lobbyist and by the time she was 18, she was taking such luminaries as Bob Dole and Henry Waxman to lunch!

She now boasts 25 years of experience in every area of marketing, naming, branding, advertising and new media.

Liz’s early successes came when she had a chance to prove herself with the industry giants Quaker Oats, Macmillan Publishing and Times Mirror.

She took her first campaign for Times Mirror from infancy to a $9 million revenue stream.

In less than six months at Quaker Oats, she turned what was at the time, their little known Natural Cereal into the exclusive granola in more than 1500 Baskin-Robbins and TCBY stores.

Liz Goodgold has a world renowned reputation for developing winning names, taglines, and branding strategies, with guaranteed flawless recall, for companies such as Univision, AMN HealthCare, and Proflowers.com.

Friday March 20th Michelle Bersell, author Emotional Abundance

2009-03-16T22:40:00.003-04:00

EGG members join us on Friday at 4pm ET for vignette speaker, Michelle Bersell, author and life coach. Michelle is a licensed psychotherapist, life coach, speaker and author of Emotional Abundance: Become Empowered. Her main goal is to teach others how the current masculine viewpoint on our emotional well-being has led women to continue to face challenges at work, in relationships and with their own sense of self. Through having a feminine insight that allows women to feel emotionally empowered, they are able to create the life balance that they desire.

Due to the current financial crisis, she has also been working with the media on how to “Emotionally Weather These Financial Times.” With this topic, she shares with people how to best handle their stress and then tap into empowered choices in order that they do not stay stuck in a rut of fear and worry.

If you would like to know more about her work, please visit her website. Her book is available in the EGG Book Club Store.
