For more than 20 years I have been helping people develop the skills, habits and mindset needed to drive high-trajectory careers.

HarperCollins is publishing my new book, "Workplace Poker" on March 15. The book is a compilation of the best ideas and juiciest stories related to career success.

Your listeners will be amused, horrified and educated by the stories, and take away practical “real world” insights they can apply to their career plans immediately.

The essential premise of my work is: Talent, ambition and hard work are usually not enough to drive a high-trajectory career. A careful study of those who have driven their own fast track career growth reveals an additional set of subtle competencies. This "game under the game" includes mastery of corporate anthropology, positive office politics, self-assessing one's own "blind spots," and a broad range of other skills, habits and mindset.

Some great questions to ask in an interview would be:

Workplace Poker was written for talented, hard-working people who have been pushing themselves, doing everything “right” to advance their careers, but things just aren’t working out for them. Either their career isn’t advancing as rapidly as they think it should, or as fast as they want it to. Or maybe their career is even backsliding in spite of all their hard work. This book opens their eyes to a whole new set of career advancement skills and strategies, because for most people hard work and talent isn’t enough.

In the book I describe my own personal epiphany, being a hard working employee and watching as others who were clearly less “talented” advanced faster. And as a corporate trainer, I’ve spent decades helping people learn all of the standard workplace productivity skills. But I have seen over and over again that high-trajectory careers are often not correlated with hard work and talent. But that’s not to say they are accidental or random.

When you carefully “unpack” career fast-trackers, and sort out the ones who have benefited from family money, connections, education, etc. – you’re left with a small group of people who have clearly DRIVEN their exceptional career success, and those people have a number of things in common. Originally I set out to develop a training program focused those commonalities, the skills that ARE correlated with fast track career success, and that program eventually morphed into this book.

Dan Rust is the founder of Frontline Learning, an international publisher of corporate training resources. His award-winning keynote speeches and workshops focus on employee engagement, productivity, and career management. He lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota and Scottsdale, Arizona.

Book Review from the Library Journal:

Workplace Poker: Are You Playing the Game, or Just Getting Played?

Learning to play the “game under the game” is how Rust, Frontline Learning founder and a 30-plus-year corporate training consultant, views the compilation of strategies and skills necessary to make decisions and achieve goals. The tools and techniques described here do not replace hard work, talent, or ambition, nor do they involve unethical manipulation. Instead, Rust makes the “game under the game” transparent, giving practical, executable insight into reading people, navigating workplace politics, identifying blind spots, improving interpersonal communication, executing self-promotion, developing emotional resilience, and managing energy to go the distance. Weaving real-life stories in a smart, informal, no-nonsense style, from individuals who have applied these strategies within their own career trajectories, Rust highlights their application and increases the reader’s understanding. VERDICT Written particularly for students of business and workplace culture, the author’s observations and strategies will undoubtedly speak to those reviewing a career misstep or contemplating a career change as well.

I’m a speaker and recording artist based in Vancouver, Canada, and I’ve been a musician for over 40 years. For most of that time, I had two musical lives: my “Saturday Night” life (playing in cover bands in hotels, casinos, bars and clubs), and my “Sunday Morning” life (playing in Spiritual Centers). In 2010, I decided to leave my “Saturday Night” life behind and focus on “making every note count” by creating music that helps to inspire and heal. As of 2014, following in the footsteps of my partner, Jana Stanfield (https://www.janastanfield.com/), I now present “Keynote Concerts” - a mixture of music AND message - at conferences, Spiritual Centers, and in my concerts. My message (and brand) is “Small Steps Big Life”; I help people to re-member that life is a series of Small Steps that move us toward a Big Life, and thus help them to reduce stress and eliminate feeling overwhelmed.

In addition to my Keynote Concerts, I’m also sharing my message by leading Men’s retreats and workshops, and by hosting a weekly online video podcast (which is also called “Small Steps Big Life”).

I think that the message that I share would be helpful to your listeners, and I think that they’d find my mix of music, stories, and humour educational and entertaining.

AND - I think that they’d find the instrument that I play - the NS Stick (an 8-stringed electronic instrument that can be plucked like a bass, strummed like a guitar, or tapped with both hands like a piano) - fascinating too.

Thanks for your time and attention. I look forward to hearing from you. :-)

Nathen Aswell is a gifted keynote speaker, recording artist and musician based in Vancouver, BC, Canada, and he believes that his calling in this life is to inspire and heal through his talks and his heart-centered music-making. His CDs “Little By Little” and “YES” are celebrations of life, transformation, evolution and the oneness of humanity, delivered in a variety of popular music styles.

Nathen honours his calling by speaking and performing at Conferences, Concerts, Men’s Retreats and Churches both nationally and internationally, presenting his music, stories and humour with his voice and the NS Stick (an 8-stringed electronic instrument that can be plucked like a bass, strummed like a guitar, or tapped with both hands like a piano).

He also hosts “Small Steps Big Life”, a podcast which showcases people sharing stories about their unique AND universal journeys.

My name is Patricia Zimmerman, and I am founder of White Dove Circle of Light and Love, a spiritual, non-profit organization where one can find true healing for the mind, body, and spirit.  

I am interested in becoming a talk radio guest.  My background includes 10+ years as an ordained minister, life coach, metaphysical teacher, QHHT and energy practitioner, and author.  My search for Truth seriously began about 25 years ago.  

There are many different teachers in life, each one specializing in a different area or topic; but the greatest teacher of all is life itself.  What I teach is what I have learned on my journey—“common sense” principles that, when understood and applied, really do work!

After 10+ years of helping people to heal (spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically) and grow spiritually, I asked myself:  How I could help to make the world a better place to live?  How can I make a positive difference in the lives of humanity?  

The answer was to write the book, Self-Empowerment: The Only Way to Heal.  This self-help book was written to empower people when it comes to their health and well-being and to help people understand how life should be lived.  It explains how the mind and spirit work together to create either wellness or dis-ease in the physical body.  

The body was designed to be “self” healing.  Until we understand the spiritual aspects of healing, we can never understand how to heal the physical body.  True healing comes from within.

Another way I could help people to heal and grow spiritually on a much larger scale would be as a talk radio guest.  My focus would include topics on how to heal and grow spiritually which I have been teaching and/or practicing for many years, such as:

   * Mirrors - How to Use Them to Navigate Your Way through Life
   * The Emotional Body and How It Affects the Physical Body
   * Integrated Healing
   * Overcoming Fear
   * Understanding Addiction
   * Near-Death Experiences (NDEs) and the Afterlife
   * Manifestation
   * Past-Life Regression
   * Spirit Totems and Spirit Helpers
   * and much more

Please give me a call if you would be interested in talking with me.  I will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Thank you in advance for your consideration.
Have a wonderful day!
Blessings,

Patricia Zimmerman, Founder

I'm happy to discuss anything about folks who are venturing into coaching / healing services,and the challenges they face / pitfalls to avoid.   Or to discuss what to do when it comes to taking on specific marketing strategies / what to do to become visible and grow their list.

How to leverage their time rather than exchanging hours for dollars.

How to create sales funnels, starting with the free offer /gift on their site.

The mindset and how that can make or break a soul-opreneur.

Lots to choose from - I'm happy to discuss what might be a fit for your audience.

Einstein said that energy could be neither created nor destroyed. Hmmm. Can that principle apply to our feelings? If so, can they be changed or transformed? I believe it does apply to our feelings and they can be transformed. I know this because I have been a witness many times to my clients' change and transformational process. Consider someone with a resentment. We all have them to varying degrees. My clients and I work together to discover new ways to see their situation, from a different perspective, with fresh eyes. My work is instrumental in leading to forgiveness, which provides others with incredible peace, freedom, and empowerment. I am interested in being a guest on BBS radio to talk about forgiveness... why it's important to me and is my passion, how I came upon it, and how I guide others through my YIPPEE Method so they can practice forgiveness and evolve into empowerment. I am inviting your listeners the opportunity to heal a little from emotional hurts, learn the stages in the process of forgiveness, and walk away with tips they can put to use right now. Having been a guest on countless radio shows, and having been the host of my own show on forgiveness, I am comfortable being interviewed. I request that you consider booking me for your show. Thank you for your consideration.

Carolyn CJ Jones is a forgiveness expert and guide, multi-award-winning author, as well as a speaker, coach, and the creator of the Change Your Story, Change Your Life programs. CJ is comfortable in the role as a leader. This was dramatically demonstrated during a 27-year career as a registered nurse when she created, developed, and managed a program allowing medically fragile children, dependent upon high-tech machines for their lives, to be cared for at home instead of living in the hospital ICU. Medical, emotional, and developmental miracles were experienced because of this program. Additionally, families were reunited; they no longer felt they were standing helplessly by, not able to do anything for their child. It is the same expertise and skills she displayed in guiding the children’s program that allows CJ to be a forgiveness guide. It has become her passion to help people discover the bliss available to them through feelings such as peace, joy, and empowerment. She spent 30 adult years angry and bitter over her childhood until, in 2005, she learned to change that story when she discovered forgiveness. CJ now guides others in this practice, sharing her YIPPEE Method, so that they, too, can change their story and change their life.

I have heard the voice of my angel since I was a child.. thought it might be good to share a few of those conversations with the public so they can learn.

Have you experienced working for stressed out leaders who spread workplace fear and chaos?  Unfortunately, this kind of behavior results in unhappy employees who make mistakes resulting in unhappy customers which affects the bottom line. How can employees produce well under such conditions? 

Now imagine working for a leader who cares for and listens to their employees. The leader who understands that positive teamwork and communicating to be heard and understood creates positive results. The outcome are loyal employees, who by their actions, create repeat customers. When the workplace culture thrives the company has the potential to evolve into the "go to" company for their niche. 

Where does It begin? 

My coaching and training programs develop unstoppable intuitive leaders, executives and entrepreneurs who learn to zap stress, shift chaos, communicate positively, create strong tuned in teams, work coherently with intuition and practical decision making, delegate and manage projects and model integrity and accountability. Tasks and motivation renew and expand, bursting seeds of innovation to move themselves, and their teams, forward with positive inspired action.

For 40 years, entrepreneurship and professional development training and coaching has been my passion. Unfortunately, my "go, go, go and do, do, do " mindset, attitude and high stress levels became saboteurs affecting everyone around me.  Poor health stopped me in my tracks which lead to studying stress management solutions and the mind/body connection. 

Merging my new knowledge, with solid business systems, improved my own performance and health creating transformational breakthroughs! The re-alignment of mind, heart, body and soul influences all I do allowing me to guide my clients who are 100% committed to improving workplace and personal results.
