Be Different or be dead

BE DiFFERENT YOU! How To Stand-Out and Power-Up Your Career

BE DiFFERENT YOU is about how to accelerate your career.

How to take your career to another level and achieve greater success in a world where the competition for a fast track route to success is fierce.
                       
My 35+ years as an entrepreneur and business leader taught me one simple truth: if you are not DiFFERENT and standout from the crowd, you won’t get noticed and you won’t be successful.

You will be ignored. You will be white noise.

You will blend into the background.

You will fall short of what you expect of yourself.

It’s as simple as that.

This unique and special book will give you my secrets on how to BE DiFFERENT than the crowd in easy, practical and proven ways and take your career to astronomical levels as a result.

You will learn the simple, practical things I did to make my entrepreneurial mark in fast-paced, technology driven, intensely competitive business where many people coveted the same leadership positions.

Where personal rivalry was deep.

Where hand-to-hand combat for advancement was an everyday occurrence.

To survive and advance in my career, I could not rely on the standard textbook career prescription. I had to develop my own unique approach based on the practical dynamics of real world business.
