New Book on Leadership Engages Readers with Storytelling Format

Southern Pines, NC (PRWEB) July 1, 2008

'Edge! A Leadership Story,' the latest book from executive coach and author Bea Fields, takes an innovative approach to educating and enlightening today's leaders. The book combines the storytelling appeal of a novel with the educational approach of non-fiction. Fields is widely recognized as a pioneer in the leadership coaching industry, but found she needed to take a new approach to putting the subject she was most passionate about into words.


"Part of what I do is turn reality on its head," says executive coach Bea Fields. "I need to shake people up and get them to start asking questions -- and ultimately challenge them to set higher standards for themselves, their businesses and their lives. How could I translate that energy and passion into book form?"


To write the book, Fields teamed with award-winning film director and producer Corey Blake, 'Chairman of the Dream' of Writers of the Round Table, and Eva Silva Travers, writer and actress. With the help of another coach and actor, Roger DeWitt, the group worked out the dialogue and created three-dimensional characters and a page-turning story that both entertains and educates.


Bestselling author Michael Gerber of the E-Myth series, wrote the foreword for 'Edge!' The entrepreneurial guru says, "In 'Edge,' our coach is someone I wish I knew when I needed one. She's direct, has a sureness about her, asks questions I knew I should answer, and in the end achieves what she set out to do."


The book has been endorsed by Michael Port, author of 'Book Yourself Solid,' Andy Wibbels, author of 'Blogwild!' and NBC Universal Executive, Sophie Mokhtari, author of the new novel 'China Girl: A Daughter's Journey.'

Flirting After Fifty: New Book Shares Lessons for Grown-Up Women on How to Find Love Again

Washington, DC (PRWEB) January 16, 2009

Groan ... the thought of dating again is more than most women over 50 can face with any confidence, much less enthusiasm. For those newly divorced or widowed, even those still just looking, it quickly becomes painfully clear that the rules have changed since their 20s or 30s.


For those new to the dating scene, they may not be mentally or emotionally ready to date again, according to Barbara Bellman, a veteran of the dating wars and co-author of the new book, Flirting after Fifty: Lessons for Grown-Up Women on How to Find Love Again. "Newly single, middle-aged women are frightened at the prospect, vulnerable, and uneasy about the whole thing," says Bellman. "What worked years ago may often seem ridiculous and ineffective now."


She should know. Married and divorced thrice, Bellman can relate with the over-50 female through her own hard won lessons. Now happily married to a veterinary ophthalmologist she calls "a keeper", Bellman offers solutions on to how to comfortably and elegantly, find love again. "Getting ready for love again starts with you."


First, women after 50 need to know when they are ready to even begin to look for a date. Using real-life examples and humorous anecdotes, Bellman reveals what makes some women better at getting a date than others. "We need to be more accepting of ourselves at this stage of life while understanding that there are new rules on how to attract the kind of men that can become good companions and possibly, rest-of-life partners."


The advice is peppered with some cautions. "There are so many pitfalls women need to avoid as they brush up on their flirting skills," adds Flirting after Fifty co-author Susan Goldstein, a divorce lawyer who herself is single (but partnered) again. "As women learn to be more adventurous, they also need to know when to be cautious, and understand why men may be cautious as well."


Flirting After Fifty deftly guides boomer women through the current dating process by addressing:
