REVIEWS I’m an Entrepreneur - Get
Me Out of Here! By Baiju Solanki
A ut hor Baiju was a Psyc hology Lecturer before leaving at the age of 37 to start his own business. Since embarking on this
journey,
Baiju became inspired by
the entrepreneurs he networked and interacted with, compiling a collection of eleven interviews with successful entrepreneurs to whom the average human can relate. They tell all - how they started, what challenges they confronted and what they did to overcome them. People like Brad Burton, Founder of the 300+ networking group 4N, who delivered pizza when he started his business; Daniel Priestley, who came from Australia knowing nobody and carrying just one suitcase and credit card with which to launch his events business, or Suraj Sodha, who left a highly promising law career to be an internet marketer, as well Thomas and Penny Power, Steve Clarke and Simon Jordan to name but a few. If you want to be an entrepreneur, this compilation of interviews serve as inspiration from those that didn’t have the perfect background, lots of money or an extensive knowledge of technology.

Resilience By Liggy Webb
A reassuring
and empowering guide to finding positivity and inner strength, Resilience: How to cope when everything
around you keeps changing helps individuals to understand that it is not what happens to them, it is the way that they react and respond. Author Liggy Webb aims to support individuals in developing a personal toolkit that will equip them to cope with the day to day challenges that they will inevitably have to deal with. Resilience is an essential life skill, giving us the ability to cope with stress and adversity. This may result in the individual “bouncing back” to a previous state of normal functioning, or learning new approaches to cope better in the future. Resilience is now recognised as an important factor in the workplace and in the increasingly changing and turbulent context of today’s working world.
