REVIEW OF THE BOOK ‘GIVING’ , A BOOK WRITTEN BY BILL CLINTON Giving denotes an action in which two things are involved; the giving, and the receiving. But its connotation is fraught with many shades ranging from the positives to the negatives. On the side of the positives we can count gestures such as giving flowers, giving money, giving alms, giving a hand, giving hope, etc,   to mention but a few. On the flip side, giving a slap, a frown, a push, etc, qualify as part of the negatives. According to Thesaurus, ‘giving is the act of giving . This amazingly simple definition is not so simple to actualize. The act of giving, (age-long and a manifestation of Love) can be traced to the beginning of creation. But the most remarkable account of giving is the one demonstrated by the Almighty Jehovah by giving to us (humanity), Jesus (The Christ), so that man can live forever.   - John 3:16. Bill Clinton in this book gives a compelling message to humanity that everyone...

  Be a People Person - Effective Leadership through Effective Relationships, by John Maxwell   Being a leader means working with people, and that's not always easy! Whether in your office, church, neighbourhood, or elsewhere, your interpersonal relationships can make or break you as a leader. That's why it's so important to be a "people person. How can a person walk into a room of strangers and with the strength of his presence cause heads to turn in his direction?  In a circle of conversation, why does the group seem compelled to address their remarks in the direction of one individual rather than to everybody in the group?  Why do some people seem to move within the sphere of an aura of greatness?

Maxwell, the “People Person”, suggests that this is not an innate ability but rather a quality than most leaders can cultivate....

   INTRODUCTION : Owen Baxer & Geoffrey Lewis (Hush Puppies Executives) The shoe passed certain point of popularity & then tipped. Products & services, ideas & trends should be thought of as epidemics. If products & services are contagious, there will certainly be a tipping. The second distinguishing characteristics of the Hush Puppies & the New York’s crime rate are that in both cases the little changes had big effects. All of the possible reasons for why the New York’s crime rate dropped are changes that happed at that margin; they were incremental changes. Of these three characteristics- one, contagiousness; two, the fact that little causes can have big effects; and three, that change happens not gradually but at one dramatic moment. The third trait is the most important, because it is the principle that makes sense of the first two and that permits the greatest insights into why modern change happens the way it does. The ...
