Reading List
Quitters Can Win:
Avoiding the Pitfalls of 'The Dip'
Seth Godin, best-selling author of
books and a popular marketing blog, discusses a sticky topic in
his small but power-packed "The Dip: A Little Book That Teaches
You When to Quit (and When to Stick)." The saying "Winners never
quit and quitters never win" is a fallacy, according to Godin. In
fact, there are times when quitting is the smartest tactic you can
employ, as long as your long-term goal remains foremost in your
mind.
Stickiness Is Powerful:
Making Your Message Count
Books touting ways to improve
business communication skills command acres of shelf space in
local bookstores, mostly in the Bargain Bin section. They're
literally "a dime a dozen." Then there are the true classics that
take pride of place in front of the store, year after year. "Made
to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die" is destined to be
one of the latter. Chip and Dan Heath have taken an old topic
which has vexed generations of communicators and given it new
energy and ease of application.
