Published by:

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book - one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few pounds or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.

You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, "Rework" is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own.

Author:
Robert Kiyosaki
Published by:
TechPress
Personal finance author and lecturer Robert T. Kiyosaki developed his unique economic perspective from two very different influences - his two fathers. One father (Robert's real father) was a highly educated man but fiscally poor. The other father was the father of Robert's best friend - that Dad was an eighth-grade drop-out who became a self-made multi-millionaire. The lifelong monetary problems experienced by his "poor dad" pounded home the counterpoint communicated by his "rich dad". Taking that message to heart, Kiyosaki was able to retire at 47. This book, written with consultant and CPA Sharon L. Lechter, lays out the philosophy behind Kiyosaki's relationship with money and aims to open readers eyes by: exploding the myth that you need to earn a high income to be rich; challenging the belief that your house is an asset; showing parents why they can't rely on schools to teach their children about money; defining once and for all ...

The Tipping Point : How little things can make a big difference

NZ$ 30.00 each
Paperback
Author:
Malcolm Gladwell
Published by:
Abacus
The Tipping Point is the biography of an idea, and the idea is quite simple. It is that many of the problems we face – from crime to teenage delinquency to traffic jams – behave like epidemics. They aren't linear phenomena in the sense that they steadily and predictably change according to the level of effort brought to bear against them. They are capable of sudden and dramatic changes in direction. Years of well-intentioned intervention may have no impact at all, yet the right intervention – at just the right time – can start a cascade of change. Many of the social ills that face us today, in other words, are as inherently volatile as the epidemics that periodically sweep through the human population: little things can cause them to 'tip' at any time and if we want to understand how to confront and solve them we have to understand what those 'Tipping Points' are.
In this revolutionary new study, Malcolm Gladwell explores the ...

Published by:
Fraser Books
DoP May 2009, NZ
From D For Dummy To M For Millionaire is a how-to-succeed book with a difference. Self-made businessman and author Myles Glew doesn't offer the usual glib advice about doing well at school and then getting as much tertiary education as possible.
As he says, for some young people, this is a totally unrealistic goal and not being able to achieve it they feel like losers. While learning to read is very important, Myles Glew says, success at school is no guarantee of success in life, and even those with the worst marks at school can be, as he has shown, highly successful as adults.

Nancy Trejos
Published by:
Little, Brown and Company
31-year-old Nancy Trejos was supposed to be an expert on handling her money - after all, she's the personal finance columnist for one of the nation's leading newspapers, The Washington Post. But a few months ago, she found herself in her own dire financial straits. Faced with a mountain of bills, debt, and no way to pay her rent, she was forced to call her parents to ask them for a loan. That night was a wake-up call - she vowed to get herself out of debt and into financial solvency. In Hot Broke Messes, Trejos takes readers along on her journey. She meets with a financial planner and a therapist to deal with all the issues young people face today - from credit card debt and student loans, to impulse buying and emotional spending, to the cost of having a social life, to buying a house with someone during a potentially impermanent relationship and more. Trejos learns what causes these problems in herself, how she can fix them, and how ...

Paperback
Author:
Robert H. Frank
Published by:
Virgin Books
Why does the top one per cent of the population capture such a disproportionate amount of the wealth? Why do top athletes win dozens of sponsorship deals, yet competitors who finish just moments behind struggle to attract a single deal? Why does one product become a runaway success, while others flounder and fail? The answer is the rise of 'winner-take-all' markets, in which small differences in performance lead to huge differences in reward. More relevant today than ever before, this fascinating book shows how in business, as in sport, thousands are competing for only a handful of top prizes. As Robert Frank and Philip J Cook reveal, this relentless emphasis on coming out on top has shaped our society and how we define success in troubling ways, creating growing income inequality and an enormous misallocation of talent, as more and more gifted people seek the big bucks and limelight of lucrative yet non-essential careers while vital ...

Why is "1001 Ways To Reward Employees", with over 1.4 million copies in print, such an extraordinary bestseller? Because a little over ten years ago Bob Nelson took the seeds of an idea and turned it into something indispensable for business. The idea? That it's not a raise that motivates an employee, and it's not a promotion-what really sparks a person to perform are those intangible, unexpected gestures that signify real appreciation for a job well done. Now, after having worked with thousands of organizations in the years since "1001 WAYS TO REWARD..." was first published, Bob Nelson presents a second edition packed with hundreds of new ideas and examples of how companies are using rewards and recognitions to boost productivity and keep their valued employees happy. Airplane mechanics are rewarded with balloons and pinwheels. Another manager calls his employees' mothers and thanks them for raising such industrious children. There ...

Paul Winstanley
Published by:
New Holland Publishers (NZ) Ltd
The Winstanleys bring a wealth of experience to this balanced, user-friendly and fact-filled guide to renting a home. There has long been an extremely strong ethos among New Zealanders that favours buying a home, rather than renting. But over recent years the unprecedented invasion of property investors has pumped up house prices and flooded the rental market. As a consequence the balance of risk and reward has altered dramatically, and it's no longer automatically 'better' to buy than to rent; for many of those seeking security in a volatile housing market, renting can offer a better financial, lifestyle and investment option.
Buying a Home Isn't Everything
examines the pros and cons of renting versus buying and presents the case to readers on all rungs of the property ladder.

In the mid 1990s, at a vast hotel complex on a private Florida beach, dozens of bankers from JP Morgan gathered for what was to become a legendary off-site meeting. It was a wild weekend. But among the drinking, nightclubbing and fist-fights lay a more serious purpose - to assess the possibility of building a business around the new-fangled concepts of credit derivatives. The group at the heart of this revolution was an intense team, made up of individuals with a supreme sense of loyalty to each other and to the bank - for years, nothing could break them apart. But when, finally, the team dispersed, the innovations spread far beyond their original intentions, producing perversions in the mortgage market that ultimately culminated in disaster. Part real-life thriller, part investigation and expose, this searing narrative takes us deep inside the shadowy world of complex finance - a perfect storm for the credit crunch

DoP - August 2008, NZ
Packed with tips and nuggets of advice from a collection of parents, grandparents, coaches, consultants, teen-experts, and world travellers from USA, Australia, and NZ, including some ex-pats from Europe, UK and SA. Advice such as: Find a mentor; do what you love; try new things; call home don’t just text us; throw things out of the fridge if they are turning blue (unless it’s a quality blue cheese of course); explore the world before you settle down; don’t become uninsurable; embrace change. Every page is in full colour and it’s hardback so that it can fit into any backpack and be kept for years. This is NOT just another ‘quote’ book, but advice for any young person leaving home and heading to university or to lead their adult lives away from home. A great graduation or birthday gift for 17-25 year olds anywhere!

Honeybees and Locusts : The Business Case for Sustainable Leadership

Gayle C. Avery
Published by:
Allen & Unwin
Since biblical times, honeybees and locusts have represented creation and destruction. Honeybees build community and ecosystems; locusts eat green fields bare. The authors use these insects to illustrate two dominant leadership philosophies. Organisational honeybee behaviour leads to more sustainable and profitable long-term results; locust behaviour can bring short-term profit but ultimately diminishes the organisation. Their extensive research in companies around the world identifies 23 practices that drive genuinely sustainable leadership. More than a triple bottom line approach, these practices protect a firm's brand and competitive advantage, create customer and employee satisfaction, drive long-term performance and shareholder value and make for a more sustainable world. Honeybees and Locusts is compelling reading for managers looking for an evidence-based approach to achieving quantum leaps in organisational performance.
