Books like Winnie-the-Pooh on Success by Roger E. Allen

Are you as confused as Pooh about success and how to achieve it? Only decades ago, the definition of "success" was fairly straightforward: "the attainment of wealth, position, honors, and the like." For Pooh it is as simple as acquiring more honey; for Piglet, it's far more serious: avoiding dangerous Heffalumps. But in these far more complicated times, people - as well as certain treasured animals of a certain forest - have all sorts of different ideas on the subject. Whatever your notion of success is, this captivating book by the celebrated authors of "Winnie-the-Pooh on Management" and "Winnie-the-Pooh on Problem Solving" will help you attain your goals. In addition to Pooh and Piglet, here are Eeyore, Roo, and the other endearing denizens of A. A. Milne's Hundred Acre Wood trying to make the art of living - and working - successfully far less befuddling. From understanding your own abilities to setting sensible objectives to defining and implementing a game plan to getting started, "Winnie-the-Pooh on Success" gives you the tools you need to be successful at any endeavor you choose. Whether you're a corporate manager, an entrepreneur, a student, a homemaker, or newly retired, this illuminating book by successful management consultants Roger E. Allen and Stephen D. Allen offers a wise, clear-headed, and commonsensical approach to business - and to life. Complete with a practical, accessible, and easy-to-follow plan for achieving the success you know can be yours, along with genuine Ernest H. Shepard illustrations, "Winnie-the-Pooh on Success" will take the Bother out of attaining your Very Important dreams, and help you get the pots of honey you deserve. --jacket flap
